Ref refers to refine metal. to get 1 refine you need 3 reclaim, to get 1 reclaim you need 3 scrap, to get 1 scrap you need 2 weapons of the same class. OR you could buy a key for $2.49 and get like, 14 refine.

1. Make sure you are a Premium player.
2. Go to the Crafting tab.
3. Go to the Rare tab.
4. Select whichever recipe you want.
5. Fill in the ingredients (metal, other craft hats, etc.)
6. Click "Craft".
7. Adore your newly-crafted hat or something.
Buying 2 hats and recrafting them saves you more metal than using 3 whole refined

1) Be a P2P; F2P players cannot craft cosmetics.
2) Get 3 refined metal, by crafting your weapon drops or by trading for it.
3) Select "Fabricate Headgear" from the crafting menu.
4) Add your 3 refined to the recipe.
5) Craft cosmetic.

Alternately or continuing on; obtained two cosmetics select "Rebuild Headgear" from the crafting menu and add the two cosmetics to the recipe to craft a cosmetic.

Rebuild Headgear is a good option as you can trade for craft hats for like 1.22 ref. as opposed to the 3 ref. needed to craft one in the first place, thereby reducing the cost from 3 ref. to 2.44 ref.

Also it means you can continue to craft via recycling if the cosmetic you craft isn't something you care for.

Crafting hats is a huge waste of metal. I would recommend trading for them if you are a P2P.

simply wait till halloween as an P2P then get your free contract halloween HATS (specifcally a hat not apparel or costume pieces) and craft them. if you're not going to use them for trading,(because they're 'Not Tradable') this is a good way to get cosmetics.
