Had a very similar case here (and much like 0000401 too) - possessed dwarf (with no moodable skills) created an iron figurine out of nothing but turtle shells at a craftsdwarf workshop.

Happened again, it was a bonecarver using turtle shells to produce an iron figurine. So I suspect it's a problem specific to shells and/or bones.

Just happened here as well, cow bones became iron, and it was also a figurine. I am curious if that is significant; has anyone had one of these moods produce something other than an iron figurine?

Mine was also a figurine. It was decorated by the bones he gathered

Same here. Three stacks of bone and a single chunk of basalt became "a (sic) iron figurine". It was encrusted with basalt, decorated with one pile of bone (13 warthog), encircled with a second pile of bone (13 warthog), and on it was an image made of a third pile of bone (11 mule).

The exact same thing happened here. Dwarf woodcutter with no moodable skills got possessed, claimed a craftsdwarves workshop, grabbed some bones and a log, and made an iron figurine decorated with the two previous items. The iron presumably came out of nowhere.

Here to further confirm this; 2 incidents in one hour. Turtle shell and horse bone.

Happened to me as well. A dwarf went all dark and broody (claimed a magama forge) and turned 13 donkey bones into an iron figuring with decorations of iron, iron, and donkey bone.

Had this happen, but it was done in a tanner's shop, but he also became a legendary MECHANIC for doing so.

Materials used:
8 Hoary Marmot Bones (2 stacks of 4)

Happened to me using 0.31.04.
Dwarf with no moodable skills grabbed a craftsdwarf shop, took three mussel shells (followed by some other stuff: GCS cloth, blue diamonds, native platinum block).
Produced an iron figurine with 3 mussel shell decorations (and the expected 1 decoration from each other material).
Became a legendary bone carver.

31.05, forge pewter goblets > iron or gold goblets.

Confirming this bug still exists in DF v0.31.08. Bone carver used a single stack of horse bones as starting material, but final artifact was an iron figurine, albeit decorated with horse bone.

Dwarf became legendary bone carver afterward.

In .31.08, still also happens with shells. My adequate bone carver went fey, grabbed 3 mussel shells, 1 uncut prase and 1 cut bandfire opals and created an iron figurine with 1 iron image, 2 shell decorations and 2 gem decorations.

Also confirming the same experience in 0.31.08.

Possessed bone carver used 2 shells to make an iron figurine with 1 shell decoration and 1 shell menacing spikes.

Happened to me in 0.31.08 with bones. An iron figurine was made out of two piles of bones, and three piles of gems (some rough, some cut).

Happened in 0.31.08 where 2 units of bones, 1 wood and 1 cloth turned out an iron figurine.

Turtle shell ring! This one should be good for 0.31.11.
