I believe Club is a custom weapon though.

   [NAME:make bone pick]
   [SMELTER]
   [REAGENT:1:BONES:NO_SUBTYPE:BONE:ANY]
   [PRODUCT:100:1:WEAPON:ITEM_WEAPON_PICK:BONE:ELK]

[REACTION:BONE_CLUB]
   [NAME:make bone club]
   [SMELTER]
   [REAGENT:1:BONES:NO_SUBTYPE:BONE:ANY]
   [PRODUCT:100:1:WEAPON:ITEM_WEAPON_CLUB:BONE:ELK]

[REACTION:WOOD_CLUB]
   [NAME:make wood club]

There is the point of the made weapons not having any quality modifiers, though.

From what I remember you need to give the weapon a ranged attack, but without any ammo type, or something like that.

Rafal99 is correct you add a ranged option to it with a useless ammo ex.

[ITEM_WEAPON:ITEM_WEAPON_SWORD_SHORT]
[NAME:short sword:short swords]
[DAMAGE:100:SLASH]
[WEIGHT:30]
[RANGED:SWORD:BLOWDART]
[SKILL:SWORD]
[CRIT_BOOST:1]
[TWO_HANDED:4]
[MINIMUM_SIZE:4]
[CAN_STONE]
[MATERIAL_SIZE:3]

now since [RANGED:SWORD:BLOWDART] is what is looked at first even if it was below [SKILL:SWORD] this is used for assigning weapons to soldiers and what not and what skill is trained when used in melee, now that means when a miner attacks someone with is pickaxe he gets better at mining. so if you really wanted you can have lasher dwarves by giving the MOUNTIAN entity the Whip weapon item and giving all whips RANGED:SWORD:BLOWDART or MACE or HAMMER then you can make bone whips but also wood whips ??? maybe its like wood fiber?
