Description
-----
Blacksmith's Basement adds a linked basement to each of the Vanilla, Hearthfire and Dragonborn player houses. The primary purpose of this basement is to automatically sort all crafting materials in the players inventory and display them throughout the room as individual physical items. The basement also contains the full suite of crafting, improving and enchanting appliances.

The basement is either automatically added upon the acquisition of a player house (Whiterun, the Hearthfire houses and Solstheim), or purchasable as a house decoration from the steward of the applicable town (Riften, Markarth, Windhelm and Solitude). The basement can also be added to custom mod houses using a spell. While the same singular basement is accessible from any of these locations, the exit ladder will return the player to the same house they entered from. This mod can therefore not be used for teleportation.

The basement's sorting system handles all items used in the crafting or improvement of any weapon or armor in Skyrim or its DLC. This includes Soul Gems and materials used in the creation of Jewellery.

For a full list of the items handled by this mod, and for assistance in locating the trapdoor that leads to the basement in each player home, please check the readme above.

Future BHM House Mods
-----

The BHM Mod Series is a set of 2 mods, both intended to provide players with an automatic inventory sorting system that physically displays the items being sorted. 

The first mod in this series is this mod (Blacksmith's Basement). This mod will eventually include storage for the following sets of items:
- Crafting items; (the current mod)
- Alchemy Ingredients; (future update)
- Cooking Ingredients; (future update)
- Hearthfire building supplies. (future update)

The second mod in the BHM series is the Scholar's Library mod, which focuses on the display of collectible items. This mod will eventually include a number of collections which can be chosen in a modular fashion - 
- The Scholar's Library (Already available)
- Mask/Claw/Paragon/Insect Jar display shelves - These shelves will be linked between player houses.
- Treasure Hunter's Map - A world map that automatically stores the treasure maps from the players inventory, while providing clues as to the general location of each treasure. As above, this map will be linked between player houses.
