Tool Cupboard
Placing and authorising with the cupboard will make it so only you can build in a 50 meter radius of it. If you want your friends to build, they'll need to auth too. You should protect this.

How to get it
- Crafted
Repair
At a repair bench, fully worn: 200 Wood. A half worn one costs half as much.
- Condition lost per repair
- None, it repairs to full forever
- Blueprint needed
- No
Rust stores no repair cost. The bench builds one from the crafting recipe: components are swapped for the first ingredient of their own recipe, then everything is charged at 20% and rounded up.
Recycling
| Recycler | Returns | Time |
|---|---|---|
| Recycler50% back | 500 Wood | 5s |
| Barrel recycler40% back | 400 Wood | 8s |
| Powered recycler75% back | 750 Wood | 4s |
A range means the last unit is a coin flip rather than a guarantee: half the recipe rarely divides evenly, and the recycler rolls for the remainder.

Tool Cupboard has 100 health and ignores -100% of explosion damage.
23 x Handmade Shell for 115 sulfur. No mix of tools beats it.
Cheapest explosive on its own: 3 x Beancan Grenade for 360 sulfur, about 7s. That is what most raids actually run, because sulfur is not the only cost.

A tool cupboard has no soft side, so these are its only numbers. Times are exact for melee and for anything fired: swings times swing delay, or shots times fire rate plus the reloads that forces. For a charge you place by hand it is one second per charge plus the fuse, and that one second is the only estimate here. Melee tool counts assume fresh tools, because repairing lowers a tool's maximum condition each time and that rate is not in the files we read. Vanilla server settings, contact range, no distance falloff.
2 skins exist for this item, most traded first.
