Antique Oven in a crate
I am stumped here. I found an Antique oven in a crate and cannot take it out of crate and can not lift the crate.
Please...How do I get the Antique oven home?

Drop everything (including clothes) on the floor, just pick up the oven and carry it to your car/home. or you can work with power. For 10 power levels, you get a full stomach and a carrying capacity of 32 kg.

You probably have more than 10 units of weight in your inventory.
Your inventory has a theoretical maximum capacity of 50. The antique oven weighs 40.

Really....clothes too? I am not wearing that much just shorts and boots and a bra...oh I do have a shotgun strapped to my back and double holster with tools.
Okay Thanks will give it a go.

You just need to be under 10 Encumbrance to be lugging around and you can carry it in your main inventory. I highly recommend putting it in a car trunk when moving it

Ya I have a trailer attached to back of truck
Only way to roll
I have been playing for close to a year and have never tried the antique oven yet. It will be great for winter.
Is there anything I should know about installing in a house. I would hate to burn the place down since I put so much work into it

It's been very safe for me every time I have used one. It provides some heat as well as cooking your food. I always grab one when I get the chance.

Oh, a tip for carrying heavy items:

Most furniture items (and many non-furniture items) can be equipped in your left or right hand. That dramatically decreases their effective weight at the cost of using up a valuable hand slot.

that's a hella weird spawn... did someone put it there? not sur eit spawns in boxes but since v41 I could be wrong.. maybe in some survival stores? not sure ive ever seen one spawn like that though, anyone else seen this happen?

There is usually one in a crate in the factory building in Muldraugh

It's a very rare spawn, but I *have* seen an antique oven spawn in a crate in the garage of a house in Rosewood (one of the forest houses in the south-east). As in, one time out of many, many starts.

The loot tables may have changed since then, but it was a nice thing to find without needing to trek all the way to the Muldraugh factory.

I've heard about that sort of thing happening. Is the trailer damaged by any chance?
