Complete 10 Tier 1 and 10 Tier 2 quests to get the Tier 2 completion reward, which usually(always?) includes the workbench as an option.

When do you get to Tier 2 quests?
I feel like before you did only a couple quests to unlock tier 2,
Now we have done 32 quests, give or take, and still on tier 1

You only get credit for your quests. They also raised the quest limit from 7 to 10.

The other way is to loot all working stations in traders place. If you have respawn of loot, simply wait a bit for them to respawn. Construcion areas have planty of mixers and stuff where you have pretty high chance to find magazines.

This, I have a workbench in short time. I hate to even talk about it, fearing a nerf.

1) One point into lock-picking.

2) Loot all forges and mixers; as they guarantee a Forge Ahead magazine. The other workstations also do have a chance to drop magazines as well.

3) Get lucky and check the trader(s) stock.

4) Get lucky with mailboxes and other looted containers.

If I get a pot while looting great, but I rush the forge every single time. (Note: A pot costs the same as two forge ahead books...)

Make a forge as soon as possible - because you'll need 100 nails and a bunch of forged steel (25?) to make the workbench. (You can make nails in the forge).
Then, if you can get enough machine parts to make a wrench (somewhere around 6?), then you can use the wrench to take apart cars - this will get you a lot more machine parts. You'll need something like 20 for the workbench.
