20 leather
6 string
5 wood

Fuel:

Basic Hot Air Balloon:
The Basic Hot Air Balloon uses 1 coal and 1 bucket of water when first used (You can keep the bucket). Every 8 minutes it will need more water and every 40 seconds it will need another lump of coal. If the balloon runs out, it will descend.

Propelled Hot Air Balloon:
The Propelled Hot Air Balloon uses fuel must faster than the Basic Balloon. It uses water every 2 minutes and coal every 15 seconds.
