> carve my crossbow with my knife

Back and forth you carve along an unfinished maple recurve crossbow's limbs with your knife. The work proceeds as planned without any mistakes whatsoever.

Some sharp corners will make continued tinkering difficult unless rubbed out with rifflers.
Roundtime: 15 sec.

You analyze every minute detail of the recurve crossbow and smile knowingly to yourself.
When crafting is complete this will be a type of finished heavy crossbow.
A cluster of small knots deforms the wood's structure. Continued shaping would be dangerous without first rubbing them out with a rasp.
From the progress so far, it looks like the crossbow is masterfully-crafted.
The crossbow is a complicated piece to make.
You estimate that it is one-fifth done.

... so I first tried the rasp. It was the wrong thing.
The rifflers message was the correct tool.
