The 50p item of each category converts into another category, at an exchange rate of 50:51. (One category, Mysteries, has two 50p items, Tale of Terror!! and A Journal of Infamy - so it appears twice in the below.) For example you can create Whisper-Satin Scrap (3rd item - Rag Trade category) with Strangling Willow Absinthe (3rd item - Wines category).

Conversion rates:

• you can convert 1 Echo's worth of the Base Item into 1 Echo's worth of the 10p item (usually 100:10)
• you can convert 10 Echoes' worth of the Base Item into 10.5 Echoes' worth of the 10p item (usually 1000:105), but no chance to get a lucky bonus
• you can convert 5 Echoes' worth of the 10p item into 5 Echoes' worth of the 50p item (50:10)
• you can convert 50 Echoes' worth of the 10p item into 52.5 Echoes' worth of the 50p item (usually 500:105), but no chance to get a lucky bonus. Appalling Secrets only convert at this rate to Tales of Terror, not to Journals of Infamy.
• you can convert 25 Echoes' worth of the 50p item into 5 Echoes' worth of the 250p item (50:10) (Memory of Distant Shores is an exception)
• you can convert 62.5 Echoes' worth of the 250p item into 62.5 Echoes' worth of the capstone item (25:5 ??) (is the capstone item always worth 12.5 Echoes? - No, Collated Research is only worth 2.5 Echoes)
