Ironman verdict
You can also make it yourself: it takes 46 Crafting and gives 52.5 Crafting XP, using Molten glass. Other sources include Barrel (Viyeldi caves), Cadarn worker, Murderous bakami and Murderous orokami, plus 2 more listed below. Where the materials come from: Molten glass (sold by Fritz the Glassblower). Making ten takes 10 × Molten glass and gives 525 Crafting XP. Reaching level 46 Crafting takes 67,983 XP in total; the Crafting calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Crafting guide has the Ironman training route. 6 recipes use Unpowered orb, including Air orb, Crystal ball and Crystal of power. Unpowered orb 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 60 coins.
