Ore Crate
This guide shows everything you need to make the Ore Crate, a back item that holds up to 500 ore. It starts with one total list of everything to gather, then breaks it down into the steps in order. Every amount, level and source on this page is worked out from the game data.
About the Ore Crate
The Ore Crate is worn in the Back slot. It can hold 500 ore, and the ore can only be taken out at a bank. It needs Mining 45 to wear and Smithing 45 to make. It is for members only and cannot be traded.
How to read this guide
1. Look at the Total gathering list. It adds up everything for one Ore Crate. 2. Then follow Step by step. The gathering steps come first, then the smelting, forging, buying and assembling steps in the order you do them. 3. The Needs column is the skill level you need for that step. 4. Where a craft makes more than one part, the step says how many crafts to do. Anything marked Y in the Members column is for members only.

Tips
The tables above use the normal Furnace. In a Dwarven Furnace, Mithril Ore smelts into a bar on its own with no Coal. The Dwarven Furnace guide explains how to use it.
A hammer is needed to use the anvil. The Smithing guide has the hammers, gloves and gems that make crafting faster.
