How do you make a rune crossbow on runescape?

To make a rune crossbow you need 69 fletching. Use a knife on some yew logs to make a yew stock. Then use rune crossbow limbs (you can buy them or make them if you have 91 smithing) on the yew stock. You'll then get a Runite c'bow (u). Then use crossbow string (you can make it by using sinew on a spinning wheel if you have 10 crafting or just buy it) on the Runite c'bow (u) and you'll get a rune crossbow.
