According to the Daizenshuu, Dragon-clan members have the ability to create objects out of thin air. Piccolo despite being a warrior-type have been shown to do this trick multiple times throughout the manga. What's the deal with that?

Maybe he still has access to some of the Dragon clan's abilities due to being created from one..Either that or the Daizenshuu is wrong.

Either Kami or Daizenshuu 2 has stated Piccolo kept his father’s memories, so everything Daimao could do, he can as well.

Piccolo materialized a Gi for Gohan twice, so it’s not a mistake.

What? Where did I deny that? I said or the daizenshuu is wrong about only Dragon clan being able to materialize.

This is what is says...

Type:
There are the Dragon Clan and warrior-type.
There are two types that exist: the Dragon Clan, who are the basic variety of Namekian, and the warrior-types, birthed by the Eldest to protect each village. Dragon Clan Namekians have the ability to create objects, while warrior-type Namekians are endowed with battle potential of instantaneous force; both live a life of mutual cooperation.

Creation:
Dragon Clan Namekians can create dragonballs.
The greatest unique trait of the Dragon Clan is their ability to create objects, and if they reach genius-class they can even create dragonballs. Because Kami who came to Earth and Dende were both prodigies, they could easily create dragonballs and call forth Shenlong.

Yeah I'd just attribute it to Piccolo having knowledge of Kami and his abilities.

Thought you were saying Piccolo couldn’t materialize stuff. My bad.

Along with the assumption that Piccolo inherited it from being the other half of Kami, it's also worth noting that Mazoku and other demonic entities have been shown to materialise items out of nowhere such as Akkuman with his pitchfork or Boo's abilities in general, so it could be in equal part due to his Mazoku affiliation.

Well Piccolo being half of Kami is the only explanation there is unless there's another Namekian who isn't from Dragon Clan can make object can contradict Daizenshuu.

There seems to be some contradictions within the Daizenshuu regarding Piccolo's ability to stretch his arms too, where D4 says it's a result of his demon heritage while D7 says it's an innate ability for Namekians.
