yeah the need for a coinpress was the only thing i didn't like about that... imho it should be like when you convert a bar to ten nuggets, except you're converting a bar to 10 arrowheads, and instead of using the alloying crucible you're using a hammer and anvil. then when you craft an arrow it would require an arrowhead (generic item like string, would accept a stone arrowhead, bone arrowhead, metal arrowhead). adding feathers would be nice as well, but it should be optional i think. maybe have that increase the accuracy of the arrow.

the other option would be to have an arrow recipe that requires a branch and gives little to no LP to craft, then you would equip arrowheads and feathers onto it for damage and accuracy bonuses.

Yep, that is a better idea than using coins. Although I dont see why you couldnt turn a coin into an arrowhead via the same process.
