Weaving
To help you carry your Farmed produce around, Members are able to weave their own produce containers. You just need to bring the required items to the Loom in Sarah's Farming Shop, which can be found south of Falador in the farmhouse (there is also a Loom in the Elf Camp). Just use the items on the loom to weave it into 1 of the available produce containers.

Glassmaking
Members have the ability to make glass items from sand. It's a great way to build your experience, since everything you need to get started can be found on the island and you don't need to travel from place to place to find the things you need. But first we should make a quick shopping list.
Ingredients to Glass
Bucket of Sand - One bucket makes 1 glass item.
Glassblowing Pipe - This makes the object.
Seaweed - You need one seaweed per bucket of sand.
Making Glass
Firstly, just put all of your weapons and armor into the bank since you can't bring them to Entrana. Buy a bucket or 2 from the General store to hold your sand. If you don't want to wait for seaweed to wash up on the beach of Entrana, you can fish for some with a Big Net in Catherby. There is also a respawn on the northern side of the river that runs through Shilo Village.
Go to Port Sarim and catch the boat to Entrana by talking to the monks.
Get off the boat and go into the house to the north, across from the furnace. Inside will be a glassblowing pipe on top of the dresser. Grab it. Also notice the stove.
If you need to, head over to the beach on the far north-west side of the island and pick up some seaweed.
Go back to the house where you found the glass-blowing pipe and cook the seaweed over the range to get some soda ash.
Fill your bucket of sand up from the sand pit located conveniently near the range and furnace. It's just south of the range and south-west of the furnace.
Use the bucket of sand with the furnace to get some molten glass.
Now use your glassblowing pipe with the glass to bring up a menu of things to make!

Lanterns are used to see into dark places and they are crafted like normal glass items. For info about lighting them, see the Firemaking guide.
A good way to get your sand is by completing the Hand in the Sand quest. This way you can get 84 buckets of sand directly in your bank daily. Furthermore, if you do the Lunar Diplomacy quest, you can use your magics to talk to Bert for easier access to the sand.
For more information about how to get seaweed to make your glass with see the Seaweed section of the Crafting Help Guide
Oil Lantern: make an Oil Lamp and then Smith an Oil Lantern Frame. Use it with the lamp to make a lantern.
Bullseye Lantern: make a Bullseye Lense and Smith a Bullseye Lantern. Use the Lense with the Lantern to complete it.

Crafting & Enchanting Battle Staffs
Battle Staffs are useful weapons in RuneScape because once equipped, it takes the place of an elemental Rune. If you enchant one, its power and attack will increase and it will become stronger.
Ingredients to a Good Battle Staff
A regular Battle Staff available from the Varrock Staff Shop or Yanille Magic Guild for 7,000gp.
A Glass Orb which is craftable.
Cosmic and Elemental Runes for casting the spell.
At least 54 Crafting and 56 Magic.
Once you've got everything together, you're about ready to start making a Battle Staff. Decide what kind you want, but remember that at level 56 you can only make a Battle Staff of Water. Take the staff and orb to the correct Obelisk and cast the charge spell on it, which will charge the orb.
Obelisk Locations
Air - In the Edgeville Dungeon, go into the Wilderness part and head north of the Black Demons until you see the demon, Chronozon.
Water - In the dungeon near Taverley, go right through, past the Blue Dragons, the Black Demons and Black Dragon. Head northwest and up the ladder.
Earth - In the Edgeville Dungeon, venture into the Wilderness part and go south past the Black Demons and climb up the ladder.
Fire - In the Taverley dungeon, just past the Black Dragons.
Once you've charged the orb for your Battle Staff, it's time to craft it onto the staff itself by using the orb with the staff. You can have it enchanted by Thormac the Sorcerer, provided you have already done the Scorpion Catcher Quest. To have him enchant it, you need to pay a nominal fee of just 40,000gp.

Other Crafting Uses
Besides crafting jewelry and making Battle Staffs, there are several other things that you are able to make with your Crafting Skill.
Colored Capes
If you have a Cape of any color, you have the ability to dye it another color. Capes are occasionally dropped by Goblins and Highway Men. To dye a cape, you'll need to buy some Dye from Aggie in Draynor Village, and then use the Dye with the Cape to change the color. Prices for dyes include 5gp and:
Red - 3 sets of Red Berries
Yellow - 2 Onions
Blue - 2 Woad Leaves
You can also mix these basic color dyes into other colors, such as purple or green.

Defense is one of RuneScape's most important Combat skills. Unlike popular belief, Defense does not decrease the amount of damage inflicted upon you. Instead, it determines how often a foe will hit you, and it allows you to wear better armor types.
