About this mod

This mod's original concept is by Lord Henceforth Ponstlebottom III Esquire! Lord, what a name.
With that out of the way, a copy-pasted excerpt from the original mod's description:
"The number of cases of each type produced are guesstimations from the in-game round weight value, using half the weight of a given round type to determine how many cases of that type can be produced: one pound of scrap, thus, can produce 60 10mm cases, 57 .357 cases, 8 .50MG cases, 117 5mm cases, and so on. Melting down cases to scrap typically requires that value and one more case, save the .50MG since the case weight divvies up perfectly into one pound."
This mod allows the crafting and un-crafting of cases from and to scrap metal. Neat, huh? I decided to expand upon the mod and to make it TTW compatible by:
And now I'll close this out with the little anecdote of how I found this mod:
Using the Gunsmithing mod (available here), I had broken down a Chinese Pistol and bought a .45 Auto barrel from Moira so that I could make a sweet, sweet 1911.
After the initial high of having made my 1911 and matching upgraded slide had worn off, it occurred to me that I didn't have any .45 Auto in my ammo drawer.
I couldn't buy any from Moira, either. Even Flak & Shrapnel's was lacking!
No ammo was to be found, because it seems that there just isn't any in Fallout 3 land (or maybe I'm just too low level).
So I went searching and found this mod.
It didn't have the recipes for .45 Auto, but by golly I loaded that sucker up in xEdit and made my own damn recipes.
And then I decided to add .32 (making it TTW compatible) and scrap metal to lead (based on a desire/suggestion from a comment on the original mod's page) for good measure.

This mod allows the crafting and un-crafting of cases from and to scrap metal. Neat, huh? I decided to expand upon the mod and to make it TTW compatible by:
- Adding recipes for .45 Auto, which weren't in the base game.
- Adding recipe for 200 lead to 1 scrap metal, reversing the vanilla recipe.
- Adding recipes for .32, which weren't even in New Vegas.
