For Chuck, you need to craft everything. The Wood is probably hiding in an overlooked chest somewhere.
For Skip, you need to help him find a gift for Melody, then follow up with both of them after he gives it to her. There's a few steps in this one, so not sure how far you've gotten.
Also, bugreport: I haven't been able to get the Pendant of Rebirth working, and (although I would prefer this one didn't get changed) the Sea Conch ignores Undead Flesh.
