You convert raw materials into products of the same material. For example, you can fabricate a wooden bridge from a clump of trees, a rope from a patch of hemp, and clothes from flax or wool.
Choose raw materials that you can see within range. You can fabricate a Large or smaller object (contained within a 10-foot cube, or eight connected 5-foot cubes), given a sufficient quantity of raw material. If you are working with metal, stone, or another mineral substance, however, the fabricated object can be no larger than Medium (contained within a single 5-foot cube). The quality of objects made by the spell is commensurate with the quality of the raw materials.
Creatures or magic items can’t be created or transmuted by this spell. You also can’t use it to create items that ordinarily require a high degree of craftsmanship, such as jewelry, weapons, glass, or armor, unless you have proficiency with the type of artisan’s tools used to craft such objects.

Posted Jan 3, 2019if enough material is there to make the full set and the caster is proficient in blacksmith tools then yes. it would still take a good bit of coin to purchase the material required to craft it. The metal being most of the cost.

Posted Apr 26, 2019For a 4th level slot I'd allow it, as long as it was already dead and you were proficient with Cook's Utensils. Just remember a lot of plant matter isn't dead when you start to cook with it, so adjust the recipe as needed.

Posted Jul 2, 2019Can we use multiple materials in the same Fabricate spell? Or would the spell caster need to cast it twice, once for the handle, once for the head?
For example: wood + metal to make a simple Axe (given the smith's tools proficiency)

Posted Jul 14, 2019As a DM I would either a) require two roll for each part (axe head and the the handle) or b) if they have the skill required make a roll against that also.

Posted Sep 12, 2019I would like to have seen this as a weaker first level spell, that scales with higher level slots.

Posted Dec 22, 2019The usage of this spell is really only limited by your creativity. Last week I used it to burn a legendary resistance off a flying dragon, by fabricating a stone cube above it to drop on top of it.

Posted Jan 1, 2020Was allowed at DM's discretion. My character used magic to solve problems in all sorts of unconventional ways, so fabricate was allowed as an action. My character hardly used any damaging spells, so certain things were allowed.

Posted Jan 13, 2020Depends on how romanticised your definition of a "creature" is. The spell reads that "creatures can't be transmuted by this spell," so, considering the wording on other spells, ask yourself if teleporting eight creatures carries their hair & fingernails with them.

Posted Jan 14, 2020If a mundane steel door is encountered, could you fabricate it into 1x1 ft metal chunks that could be easily carried away? Would this work with higher level materials?
