Metal Shape

By means of this spell, the caster forms an existing piece of nonmagical metal into any shape that suits his or her purpose. For example, the caster can fashion a metal weapon, a special trapdoor, or a crude idol. While metal coffers can be thus formed, metal doors made, and so on the fineness of detail is not great. If the shaping has moving parts, there is a 30% they do not work, if the shaping has a sharp edge, there is only a 30% chance it is sharp enough to cut. However, if this spell is employed on metal prior to it being worked upon by a smith, it reduces the time and expense to create the final product by 50% or more, as adjudicated by the DM.

The material component is lead, worked with a hammer into roughly the desired shape of the metal object

Notes: Granted by the dwarven god, Flandal Steelskin.
