Magic string
Magic string is a members item, with a high alchemy value of 1 coins. No shop sells Magic string and no monster drops it, so an Ironman makes it: it takes 19 Crafting and gives 30 Crafting XP, using Magic roots.

Ironman verdict
Where the materials come from: Magic roots (from Magic Tree (Farming)). Making ten takes 10 × Magic roots and gives 300 Crafting XP. Reaching level 19 Crafting takes 3,973 XP in total; the Crafting calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Crafting guide has the Ironman training route. 2 recipes use Magic string, including Pre-nature amulet and Waxed masterwork string. Magic string is members-only. It is tradeable on normal accounts, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade for it, so the sources on this page are the whole list. High Alchemy turns one into 1 coins.
