Walkthrough

Starting out

• Go to the Exam Centre south of the Digsite. (Varrock teleport then run east; or use a Digsite pendant/ teleport and walk south towards the exam centre.)

• NOTE: If you have not spoken to the Archaeologist after the Dig Site quest, you will not find the book.

• Search the most northeastern of the southeastern bookcases to find a beaten book.
• Read the book, then read the scroll.
• Keep the book.

The second key

• Head back to the building with the Anvil in seers village and Enter the workshop using the battered key on the odd-looking wall (Like in Elemental Workshop Part 1).
• Go north to the water elemental room and search the machinery to the west to get a key.
• Go west and get 2 elemental ores by killing earth elementals.
• Go south from the centre room and smelt your ores into bars.
• Go down the hatch in the centre room with the key in your inventory.

Making Repairs

The crane

• Take-from the schematic crate to the south, take both schematics.
• Go back upstairs and use one bar on the workbench to make an elemental claw.
• Return downstairs and use the lever next to the schematics crate to lower the crane (West lever).
• Use your claw on the old crane.

The junction box

• Climb the stairs to the southwest to get on the catwalk.
• Open the junction box to the west.
• Click the pipe ends to arrange them as shown.

Pipes and cogs

A visual of the correct cog placement

• Search all crates on the catwalk level and ground floor of the lower workshop until you find a small, medium, and large cog, as well as a pipe.
• Use the pipe on the broken piping at the north end of the catwalk.
• Use the cogs on the pins at the east side of the ground floor of the lower workshop, on the structure that looks like a tunnel. Place the cogs as follows:
  • Small cog on upper left pin
  • Medium cog on lower left pin
  • Large cog on right pin.

Operating the machine

The crane

• Place an elemental bar on the jig cart. (under the elemental claw)
• Use the lever by the schematics crate to raise the crane.
• Rotate the crane with the south-eastern lever.
• Pull the south-western lever twice to lower the crane into lava and back up.
• Pull the south-eastern lever to rotate the crane over the cart.
• Pull the south-western lever twice to lower the bar onto the cart and raise the crane.
• Pull the nearby lever, north, under the yellow sign to move the cart.

The press

• Pull the lever west of the spiral stairs to flatten the bar once the cart has stopped.
• Pull the yellow sign lever again.

The water tank

• Pull the northernmost lever.
• Turn the corkscrew lever twice.
• Pull the northern lever again.
• Turn the western water valve to open it.
• Turn the eastern water valve to open it.
• Turn the western water valve to close it.
• Pull the lever.
• Turn the corkscrew lever twice.
• Pull the lever.
• Pull the yellow sign lever again.

Drying

• Pull the easternmost lever twice.
• Pull the yellow sign lever again.

Finishing up

• Collect your primed bar.
• Head down the stairs to the northwest.
• Go through the eastern door, use your primed bar with the extractor gun, then operate the Extractor hat. Your magic level will be drained by 20.
• Take your primed mind bar
• Go upstairs and smith a mind helmet. (Note: Make sure you have the beaten book in your inventory, if you only have the slashed book you will automaticly make a mind shield which is not the item you need to complete the quest.)

Quest complete!

Rewards

• 1 Quest Quest point
• 7,500 Smithing Smithing experience
• 7,500 Crafting Crafting experience
• The ability to make and use elemental mind equipment.
  • To make a mind shield: have the slashed book from the Elemental Workshop I quest in your inventory, then smith a primed mind bar into a mind shield.

Trivia

• When you are downstairs in the corridor that has the mind door, a body door can be seen further down. This is a hint towards the Elemental Workshop III quest, which was released in RuneScape 3. The armour reward from it was a Body body.
