A player asked about this so just to clarify.. I really hate to make players waste a feat slot taking a (magic) item creation feat from the player's handbook.. in my opinion a spellcaster interested in doing so should be able to pick up that feat automatically ...
Basically if you're interested in creating magic items just add the appropriate item creation feet to your character sheet as a freebie (assuming you're high enough level and have the appropriate prerequisites to qualify for the feat in the first place) ... I didn't give the issue too much thought beforehand since you guys normally wouldn't have the time to take days out of your adventures to whip up a sword or armor or what not at this point in time
... (WAY into the future when you start module 5 you'll have days worth of "leisure" time to do that sort of thing but that's a whiles from now 
) ... however as solardawn pointed out, potions only take one day to create :
www.d20srd.org/srd/magicItems/creatingMagicItems.htm#creatingPotions
" Any place suitable for preparing spells is suitable for making items. Creating an item requires one day per 1,000 gp in the item’s base price, with a minimum of at least one day. Potions are an exception to this rule; they always take just one day to brew. "
So if a day goes by of just travelling I'll let interested PC's do that "on the way" if they so desire....
