Choose your quality level

[Lord Morphleyes]

It would be nice to have the option to reduce the quality of an item I make.  As it is now, you can only make the highest quality item you have unlocked.  Maxed out 69'er and all you can make is tier 5 tools. 

Why?:

I dont want to waste my early game resources making a tier 5 hammer to be eaten by my workbench recipe.

I want to make an M-60 with the schematic I just found but can afford the amount of steel and parts for a tier 4. 

Counter point

If you could make a weaker gun then why would you make a quality 5 gun? Just spam Quality 1 guns until you get the stats you want.

So the spam crafting level one guns wouldn't work as well as intended as there are caps for each stat based on the level. also, just a 10% increase in damage in general with each step of the tier. But I agree on the Resource saving this would be nice to build lower-level equipment for recipes and what not.
