*Points to subject*
I wish to make soap but have no sand. I have plenty of Crystal Glass though. Will it work?

The wiki is notoriously inaccurate on subjects at the cutting edge, frequently reflecting passing memes, folklore, or the word on the street instead of true dwarven science.

I know green glass doesn't work. I've never tried it with crystal, but my guess is that you can't.

You need to make said elf leather into the most amazing work of art.  Embed it with every kind of gem you have, stud it with metals, and sew images into it.  Erect a shrine outside your fort with that in the center.  Let the elves know that you view their very skin as naught more but a medium for your dwarves to work on.
