Okay, revised suggestion for when "or 80" skills have been tossed:

  In working a single forge an Armorer may have up to EL/2 (RU)
apprentices. These apprentices may add their EL, up to a maximum of 50% of
the Armorer's EL, to the Armorers effective skill in calculating speed* in
forging armor and weapons.
  Apprentices with less than the Armorer's EL learn at 2 expertise per day,
1 expertise per day if he has more than his maximum number of apprentices.
Literate apprentices may learn an additional 1 expertise per day if
supplied with the proper books and manuals.
  Typically an Armorer's Manual covers the basics up to EL1, then a series
of smaller, yet equally expensive books cover each EL while describing how
to make particular items or later how to improve one's skill
in particular aspects of the skill like quenching.

*In rules yet to be written...
