    There was a couple of comments on engineering is a "useless" skill. I am here to tell you that engineering has made me more money than any other skill/hobby out there. You just need to find out what sells!
    Gyrochronatom - 1 gold bar & 3 silver bars make 3 of them and i sell each for 60s. Used for Badlands trinket quets
    Unstable Triggers, Hi-Explosive Bombs, Salt Shakers, Advanced Target Dummies, Inlaid Mithril Cylinder Plans, Heavy Shot, Solid Shot, Gyro-Mithril Shot, Thorium Shells, a sortment of guns, the list goes on an on. During the weekends, i can clear 30g a day from the stuff i put above on the AH. Maybe you should research some more into your engineering skills and you find that this skill will make you a ton of profit.

    Once i have the sniper scope plans i will be set and since my other skill is mining, i have a ton of truesilver and star ruby's in the bank ready to put those scopes out on the market.

      1x gold and 3x IRON bar are base materials for 3x gyrochronatom.  No silver bars are used.

      You can't make money in the short run as an engy, and if you make money selling bombs for engys, your server kind of makes me sad. I always found it cheaper and more rewarding to make my own bombs, never seen any engy openly admit they would buy other ppls bombs.

      And 30g a day is kind of weak, I make more selling green items while lvling. Although thats not an every day thing. Bullets are the only thing I see a real demand for on my server, other then scopes.

      Also I make more then 30g a day selling iron, and I got a decent stockpile of mithril going wich is worth even more.

          You read my mind, I was waiting to read a recent post slamming the person's 3 year old post.  30g/day was awesome back then.

          Anyhow, I make money with engineering now.  Once you max it out, my mote extractor gets me primal motes all the time.  One time in Nagrand I went to help a friend, whilst flying overhead in my Turbo Charged Flying machine (worth engineering right there!) I spotted about 3 windy clouds which netted me close to 15 motes of air, and I wasn't even trying.  Another day I found two clouds side by side in Shadowmoon Valley that got me a primal shadow (10 motes), again, I wasn't even trying, I was just coming back from a daily.

          I have sold Deadly Blunderbus', which are used for a Horde quest (I am horde), scopes and an assortment of other items.  I have made money on it, but I don't try to, I make money on my mining when needed, and now that I am 70, I make money on dailies, my mining supports my engineering which I use to make my arrows which do 43dps, not to mention the goggles, shrink ray, net-o-matic which is handy in PvP... I LOVE engineering!!

          You could correct someone without calling them names. It doesnt make you look that great either. Lets learn to respect one another even in our difference of opinion.
