A furnace is one of the first crafting stations that players can build in My Time at Sandrock. This station will allow players to take raw metal ore and turn it into something more useful. For instance, players can use tin and copper in order to smelt bronze for things like the bronze pickhammer upgrade in Sandrock.
How to Get the Furnace Diagram in My Time at Sandrock
To build one of these helpful machines, players will need to get the blueprints from Yan. When they first start the game, the first mission from Yan will be to make a pickhammer, then he will tell the builder to make a Recycler in their Sandrock workshop. After that, he will give players the plans for the furnace crafting station. They look like this:
So the recipe for the furnace is two stone troughs, four quartz, and two wooden sticks. Here's how to find all these pieces.
- Stone troughs are made with just regular stone that players can find in stone piles around workshop. They are made by combining 12 stone together at the workbench.
- Similar to the way that bearings in My Time at Sandrock can be made with mechanical scrap, wooden sticks can be created by putting wood scrap, found in wood scrap piles, into the Recycler. They can also be made at the workbench with 6 wood each.
- Quartz is found by breaking up piles of gravel with a pickhammer. This will also supply builders with other needed materials like dinas.
How to Build the Furnace in Sandrock
Similar to the way the builder put together the recycler, players will have to put all the needed components together on the Assembly Station.
Interact with the book on the Assembly Station and it will pull up all the builder's available blueprints. Choose the Furnace, then walk up to the ghost of the Furnace on the Assembly Station and put on the required items to build it.
After it is built, make sure to place it in the yard somewhere. In order to use it, players will have to fill the item with fuel, then make sure there is plenty of water in the tank of the water cooling system. Then players can fill the machine with glass, copper, or tin from the Sandroc k ruins to get some much more useful metal bars. Also, make sure to put together a feather duster as quickly as possible to keep the area around the furnace free from sand and dust; if too much sand builds up around the furnace, its operation speed will be halved.
