Help on improvisation:

Improvisation

The Improvisation skill gives you the ability to use the IMPROVISE command, which allows you to create an item from a single unit of a resource without the use of tools.
Some of the things you can improvise this way might not be available for manufacture on crafting tools! Always experiment.

Another way you can improvise is by using the existing manufacturing capacities of tools for producing non-standard items which are not listed amongst the blueprint hard-coded into that tool. To list things which you may possibly improvise using a tool, use the 'IMPROVISE ON ' command. To improvise a possible item using a tool, use the 'IMPROVISE ON ' command.
Doing this can allow you to extend the usage of a tool and produce items and components which may not be available on hand-held tools.
