You create a nonmagical, unattended object of nonliving vegetable or mineral (stone, crystal, metal, or the like) matter. The volume of the item created cannot exceed 1 cubic foot per caster level. The duration of the created item varies with its relative hardness and rarity, as indicated on the following table.

*includes adamantine, alchemical silver, and mithral. You can't use major creation to create a cold iron item.

You must succeed on an appropriate Craft skill check to make a complex item.

Attempting to use any created object as a material component causes the spell to fail.
