Ok, so I did a bit of experimenting with this thing, and I noticed how it works (or how I think it works). If you try to recycle an item that was made on the worktable for example, it takes the materials that you used to make it, divide those by 2 (and then round them up if it is 1.5, 2.5 etc). So if you made 1 item A by using 3 B's and 4 C's, you get back 2 B's and 2 C's.

According to this theory, if you used 1 unit of a certain material to make something else, recycling that would get you that 1 unit of the material back. I then tried to recycle a Steel Shell (which needs 1 Steel Frame, 1 Welding Rod and 1 Steel Plate) and then I get back all the items that I used to make it.

This would mean that if you have the Artisan skill maxed out, you get back more than what you used to make the Steel Shells. For example, if you made 10 Steel Shells, thus needing 8 of every material, you get back 10 of every material. Can anyone confirm this?
