Amazing 3-star Rotation pic

You know, it sounds stupidly simple and obvious, but up until I tried crafting the Balanced Darksteel Hooks, I always thought that I had to rely on a rotation--not a macro, but an actual rotation that I manually inputted--to get crafts done.

But after a few failures, I tried just... letting go of all of my knowledge of macros and rotations and just tried crafting manually without any kind of outside assistance. And you know what? It actually worked! Thus far, I've gotten my Master Blacksmith II recipe book, my Vulcan Lucis, and I managed to craft 2/3 Wootz Ingots in HQ ready for me to craft into a Wootz Bhuj! =D

So I learned a very valuable lesson from this thread, whether intentionally given or not.

To be fair, this Image and Rotation came out a long time ago (before the Uber Difficult HQ Turn-Ins for the Books that are "3.9 Star" as someone mentioned above).

So it actually worked pretty well for early 3 Star recipes back in the day, and it helped inform me (and others) of the general ideas about higher level crafting.
