Glassmaking Recipes cover melting sand or broken glass and shaping the molten glass into useful objects. Glass panes, bottles, jars, drinking glasses, wine glasses, lantern glass and mirrors all come from this menu.
The craft trains Glassmaking. It gives a survivor a way to make new containers and replacement glass once the found supply runs low. Jars and bottles matter most, since they store food and drink. Glass panes go into wooden windows. Glassmaking leans on other crafts. Pottery makes the crucibles, the sheet mold and the glass blowing pipe. A furnace from Blacksmithing does the melting, and charcoal fuels it.
Skills
Some recipes need no Glassmaking skill. Melt Glass and Melt Sand make molten glass from the start. Make Glass Pane pours that glass into a pane, once the recipe is learned.
Low levels open the first blown pieces. Make Drinking Glass needs Glassmaking level 2, and Make Glass Bottle needs level 3. Make Mirror needs level 4, and Make Glass Jar needs level 5.
The fine work comes late. Make Lantern Glass and Make Wine Glass need level 7. Make Champagne Glass needs level 9 and is the top of the menu.
Experience rises with the level of each recipe. The blown pieces give much more than a pane.
The recipes by the skill level they ask for.

Learning
Melt Glass and Melt Sand are known from the start. Every other recipe must be learned first.
Most of them also unlock by themselves once Glassmaking is a level or two above the recipe's own requirement. Make Glass Pane has to be taught.
The Artisan trait starts with most of the learned recipes known. It also gives a starting level of Glassmaking.
Magazines teach the rest. Carlow Crystal Guide teaches the glass pane and the drinking glass. Bottle Making at Home teaches the bottle and the jar. Murano Glass Manual teaches lantern glass and wine glasses. The mirror and the champagne glass unlock through skill.
These magazines, books, traits and occupations teach recipes from this category that have to be learned.

Materials
Molten glass comes from either Broken Glass or a Sack of Sand. Both melt in a Small Ceramic Crucible with charcoal and something to start the fire. Tongs or crude tongs lift the crucible, and they are kept.
Each finished piece uses one Small Ceramic Crucible with Molten Glass.
Blown pieces need a Glass Blowing Pipe and pliers, and both are kept. Flat pieces need a Ceramic Sheet Mold, which is also kept. The mirror also takes a Steel Sheet - Small.
The crucible, the pipe and the sheet mold all start as clay. They are shaped by a potter and fired in a kiln.
The materials these recipes use up most often.

Stations
The melting happens at a furnace. Melt Glass and Melt Sand work at the Smelting Furnace or the Blast Furnace. Everything else is shaped on any flat surface, such as a table or counter, using the molten glass from the furnace.

Recipes
Start with the melt. Melt Sand turns sand into glass, while Melt Glass recycles Broken Glass.
Early shapes are simple. Make Glass Pane gives panes for windows. Make Drinking Glass and Make Glass Bottle are the first blown pieces.
Mid-level work is the most practical. Make Glass Jar gives jars for preserving food. Make Mirror pours glass over a small steel sheet to make a Mirror.
The late recipes are fine glass. Make Lantern Glass, Make Wine Glass and Make Champagne Glass round out the craft.
Every recipe in the Glassmaking menu is listed with what it makes, what it uses up, the tools it hands back, the skill it asks for and where it is made. A "Yes" under Learned means the recipe has to be learned first. Each tab holds one kind of thing made.

Notes
- Broken Glass can be gathered and melted back into new glass.
- Glass panes are needed for wooden windows, which also ask for Carpentry level 5.
- Jars from this menu serve for preserving food, which asks for Cooking level 8.
- Pliers, the blowing pipe and the sheet mold are all kept, so one set lasts.
- Five Glassmaking skill books raise the experience gain, starting with Glass: A History.
