Event Coordinator Baublie Diggs may be found in the newbie area at +600, +135.

You say, 'Hail, Event Coordinator Baublie Diggs'

Event Coordinator Baublie Diggs says 'Are you interested in taking a [test] of your Tradeskill Ability?'

You say, 'What test?'

Event Coordinator Baublie Diggs says 'I can give you a test of your tradeskill abilities in any of eleven different tradeskills. I can test you on [alchemy], [baking], [brewing], [fletching], [jewelry] making, [poison] making, [pottery], [smithing], spell [research], [tailoring], or [tinkering].'

You say, 'Tinkering.'

She will assign you a task dependent on your skill. The levels appear to be Beginner (50-99), Apprentice (100-149), Freshman (150-199), Journeyman (200-249), Expert (250-299), Master (300).

You have been assigned the task 'Beginner Mechanist Test'.

Event Coordinator Baublie Diggs says 'Ok take this list, make the recipes on it, and give them to the Judge for Approval. Be sure to read all of the rules.'

Create 4 Gnomish Firework (Happy Panda) using tradeskills

Deliver 1 Mana Battery - Class One to Judge Marion Teld`mare

Rules:
Make all of the items on this list.
You may make them in any order you wish.
You may have friends help you with any part but the last step which creates the actual part on the list. This you must do yourself.
You may make the items in any order and turn them in to the Judge in any order that you wish.
The Judge will keep all items that she is given to defray the costs of the contest.
The Judge's decision is final.

Upon handing the last one into Judge Marion Teld'Mare you get:

Congratulations. You have passed the test. Please give this scorecard to the coordinator. Be sure to have two places available in your inventory because she will give you either one or two items as your prize.

You have been given: Beginner Mechanist Scorecard

Give the scorecard to Baublie.

Event Coordinator Baublie Diggs says 'Congratulations! That was great work. Here is your trophy.'

You receive the Beginner Mechanist Trophy.

The trophies are evolving items that also evolve as you craft recipes within a certain non-trivial range (reportedly 100) above your current skill level. Once you pass into the next skill level bracket, the trophy should evolve soon afterward. The trophies can also summon weight-reducing bags like the older trophies. When you take these bags to Jolum in the Bazaar, you get an Essence, and can combine the Essence in a toolbox to get a permanent weight-reducing bag specific to tinkering.

Shopping List

16 Bat Wing
16 Fire Water
16 Metal Shaft
4 Cork
3 Spriket
2 Gnomish Bolts
6 Metal Rods
Static Orb
Water Flask - you'll need lots of these over your career
2 Quality Firing Sheet
3 Block of Clay
Skewers Sketch
Pie Tin Sketch
Grain of Dark Matter or Dark Matter -- it requires hunting or bazaar then refinement - this is a pita compared to many of the other beginner tradeskill quests.

Probably the easiest is to get Raw Dark Matter from Barindu or Natimbi, take it to Abyssal Sea to get Dark Matter then use it with a Small Battery Casing 1 pack of 5 although there are other ways to do it.

http://www.eqtraders.com/items/show_item.php?item=12764&menustr=
Then you have to modify it http://www.eqtraders.com/articles/article_page.php?article=q166&menustr=120037000000
I went to Skelontorim Orrthemech in Abyssal Sea, gave him one Raw Dark Matter and got two in return. He can be found on the map.
This will give you dark matter that you can combine with Battery Casing.

You can reduce the number of Bat Wing, Fire Water, and Metal Shaft from 16 to 4. The Combine makes 1 of each with each, so you only have to do 4 successful combines.

Also, it seems like all references to any recipe for Battery Casing 1 have been removed from the links you give. I am assuming that is what the Pie Tin would have been used in?

Confirmed. You only have to deliver 2 Animated Bait even though you make three.

Beginners Mechanist Scorecard is already in Lucy. ID 95138

I'll supply the missing dialog after I get and turn in the card.
