About machinery

Machinery are powered workstations that allow for more efficient crafting dependant on skill level. Each with their own replaceable parts and custom interfaces.

Most require mains or generator power.

Thanks to Ely0n's mod (support their efforts on Ko-Fi).

How to build them

Built through the vanilla Building Menu or Knox Buildworks. See Building for more info.

Types of machinery

Table Saw

Cuts logs and large branches into planks.

Requires a circular sawblade, the rate at which the blade wears out and needs replacing depends on Maintenance level.

A gasoline powered cabinet version is available to build, but is dangerous to run indoors.

Carpentry level affects yield, speed, XP, and safety.

• Lower Carpentry levels present the most risk of injury.
• Carpentry 6 - 1% accident risk (mostly scratches, rarely cuts)
• Carpentry 10 - Up to five planks per log with no accident risk.

Concrete Mixer

Mixes bags of concrete powder into a drum that holds eight buckets worth, then pours them into buckets as you bring them.

Requires a 100L plumbed water container within two tiles. Clean or tainted water both work, as well as containers you carry.

Metal Bandsaw

Cuts tires, sawblades, iron stock and sheet metal.

Propane Storage

Stores up to 20 propane tanks you deposit. Can be used to refills tanks or blowtorches.

Drill Press

Drills metal stock and makes specialist blacksmithing tools.

Grinder Station

Sharpen weapons and tools. Works with compatible modded axes, blades and edged tools. Can also be used to sharpen drill bits for the press.

Metalwork Lathe

Turns steel bars into rods and precision metal slugs.

Hydraulic Press

Compacts metal scrap and forms circular sawblade blanks.

• Circular sawblade for the metal bandsaw.
• Machine Oil lubricant. Also craftable with vegetable oil. Found in mechanics workshops, garages and industrial factories.
• Drill Bit Set for the drill press.
• Grinding Wheel for the bench grinder.
• Lathe Tool Set cutters for the metalwork lathe.
• Bandsaw Blade for the metal bandsaw.
• Hydraulic Service Kit, seals and fittings for servicing the hydraulic press.
