-menacing Trifle pewter spike-

I think I assigned more menacing iron spike jobs than I had iron bars for, because my weaponsmith made a -menacing Trifle pewter spike-.  The game should just give a "not enough iron bars" cancellation rather than using whatever materials are handy.

turn all your excess metal bars into supports or something before you make trap components or anvils this version.

Or you can (f)orbid all 'undesired' bars from the stocks menu before forging trap components or anvils, and reclaim them afterwards.
