Overview

Upgrade Path

Toolbox is an upgrade extender that snaps to a Workbench. Placing it inside the base station's extender footprint unlocks the recipes gated behind this extender on the base station's own craft list. It does not craft items on its own; the base station handles all recipes.

Placement Strategy

The Toolbox is the last Workbench extender to unlock in a typical playthrough. Five Foothills Iron Ingots and twenty Nails place the build cost squarely in the mid-game refining camp, after the Smelting Furnace has been running for a while. Once the Toolbox is up, iron-tier tools become available at the base Workbench, which in turn speeds up every gathering and mining loop downstream.

Tips

• Nails are Workbench-crafted. The Toolbox's 20-Nail requirement is circular: build Nails at the base Workbench first, then snap the Toolbox on.

• Iron tools unlocked here cut Hardwood and break tougher ore nodes that Copper and Stone tools cannot.

• Attach the Toolbox after the Sawhorse and Tool Shelf to close out the Workbench extender loadout.

Progression Notes

Toolbox is part of the crafting progression chain rather than a standalone collectible. Use the recipe, station, and ingredient rows to trace what unlocks it, what it consumes, and which linked upgrades or materials should be prepared before crafting it.
