I wrote the attached script to train bowcraft/fletching. This script will train you from 0 skill to 100. I reviewed the skill training cycle on UOGuide and found it to be flawed. I deviated from that progression by making bows as soon as possible, and making fukiya darts for longer, from 50 to 60. I hate to pass up an opportunity to train making something that uses one resource and you still gain well making darts up to 60. The script rides a lot of the failure curve. If you want to speed up skill gain at the cost of some resources, use a + fletching bonus talisman.
Requirements: Must have enough tinker skill to make Fletcher's Tools, because real crafters make their own tools.
Like all of my other craft scripts, this is a beta release, so please post any feedback, bugs, etc.
