Fallout: New Vegas Crafting

This page lists all .

Overview
Crafting is used for creating a large variety of items, including the production of custom ammunition with the Repair skill, custom weapons with the Science skill, and the creation of food and medicinal items with the Survival skill.

Electric hot plates


Electric hot plates craft the same items Campfires can craft.

Sierra Madre Vending Machine
Sierra Madre Vending Machines are pre-War devices developed at the Big MT, which dispense and redeem numerous items in exchange for Sierra Madre Chips. They can be found throughout the Sierra Madre, and one is found in Elijah's quarters in the Abandoned Brotherhood of Steel Bunker.

Skill magazines
All skill magazine recipes are created at Workbenches, under the Aid subcategory. These recipes only become available after getting the Voracious Reader perk, and require its Blank magazines which convert from damaged books in the player's inventory.

Weapons

 * ¹ Crafts at 80% Equipment Condition, regardless of skill.
 * ² Due to Mad Bomber having Explosives 45 as a prerequisite, these weapons can not be crafted at the skill levels listed in the workbench.

Recycling

 * ¹ Due to Vigilant Recycler having Science 70 as a prerequisite, efficient recycling can not be accomplished at the skill levels listed in the workbench.

Conversion (variant)

 * ¹ Due to Vigilant Recycler having Science 70 as a prerequisite, none of the optimized recipes can be made at the skill listed in the workbench.

Skill books
All skill book recipes are created at Workbenches, under the Misc subcategory. The holotapes for these recipes can be found throughout Big MT.

Ammunition

 * ¹ Due to Hand Loader having Repair 70 as a prerequisite, these hand load rounds can not be crafted at the skill levels listed in the reloading bench.
 * ² Because this recipe only becomes visible after Southern Passage is discovered, this means the recipe becomes immediately available after entering Zion Canyon for the first time.

Poisons
All poison recipes are created at Campfires, under the Aid subcategory. Poisons are used to coat melee or thrown weapons and can have massive effects on enemies. Note that one dose of poison is enough for one application to an enemy.

Cloned food
All cloned food recipes are created at Campfires, under the Food subcategory. Various edible plants can be cloned using Salient Green, which is obtained by breaking plants down at the biological research station. These recipes are always visible from the start of the game.

Miscellaneous

 * ¹ Crafts at 80% Equipment Condition, regardless of skill.

Food

 * ¹ Only available in the casino area of the Sierra Madre.

Miscellaneous

 * ¹ This recipe is unusable because it calls for an item that is unobtainable to the player.

No crafting station
These recipes do not specify a Category in their record, meaning they have no defined crafting station. This makes these recipes never show up to the player, without needing defined Visibility Requirements.

Bugs

 * The Sierra Madre Vending Machine recipe to return a fedora in exchange for chips is unusable because it calls for an item that is unobtainable to the player.
