Im trying to add the Craftybits scripting measures to the in game anvils and bellows but before I get underway I want to make sure that its doable. I know that an existing script can be attached to a static object, but how about an activator, and what about the "hit box" that craftybits uses as the working script area? Also I would have to make the forge and the bellows act as containers. Does this whole idea seem like a practical method or is it going to give me headaches, I'm doing this for my own personal use so don't worry about me stealing anything.

STAT forms don't have a script slot while ACTI forms do. Make a new ACTI and copy the .NIF path and object bounds from the static anvil to create am anvil activator.

You can't directly attach scripts to static objects. You can however convert static objects automatically in-game in such a way the player character experiences it as if it's a scripted activator or whatever. This should be done using GetCrossHairRef, GetModelPath, CloneForm, SetModelPath and PlaceAtMe. I created a mod doing just that and works flawlessly.
