I don't see why not.
can you count the rings to see how old the non exsistant tree was when the wood (and the spell says it is not created but actually scraps drawn together and molecularly bonded) was drawn together from possibly hundreds of sources by magic?
Yes, although it will only give a false age... since the wood is pieced together.
Does magically created fog leave a wet residue on cool surfaces?
Yes.
Perhaps but what if the fog is not watervapor maybe it is simply a magical visual imparment that has not physical properties other than to obstruct vision.
What if magically created fog were actually stone?
It's not, so don't worry about it.
The spell creates fog, not "a fog-like illusion or magical force."
Magically created armor should act like normal armor but only the IA spell Creates armor so there is limited use for this end of the discussion.
No, Armor of Ithan also creates armor. The spell specifically states this.
also other things that are created are not actually created...
Created Water is also not created it is "sucked" out of the air so to speak and purified.
Create steel uses exsisting scrap steel or raw ore and adds a mear 5% to the overall amount so if you start with 100 pounds of scrap steel you get 105 lbs of usable bar/sheet stock...it "creates" some steel but it must have a base to "add on to" it can't just summon steel out of thin air.
The steel is the only one that actuall creates anything and it puts specific limitations on what you can do with the spell and all the steel not just the magically created 5%.
True.
And yet the steel and water actually ARE steel and water... not magical force that resembles steel and water.
And if you read the long list of creation spells that I posted earlier, you'll note that there are many spells that simply create substances out of nothing in particular.
Magic is goofy it is not bound by normal rules it has it own rules and they are usually vague at best.
Yes.
And when the rules are not spelled out, it is only logical to assume that magical constructs follow the same rules that normal constructs do.
As I spelled out in my previous post.
