How do you build beds???

[Captain Tuttle]

pretty early on there is a mission where you are suppoused to build beds at Sanctuary??? what do you do? where is it, the crafting items list is a million long.

Look under furniture.

funiture is the 2nd or 3rd tab from the left in your menu.
Go in to sub tab "beds".
Pick some that dont use too many scarce resources ( even sleeping bags will often do)

You need to have cloth and metal so make sure that you have scrapped some items that have enough materials to make them. Otherwise you'll see a list of nothing buildable yet.

For one, that's a really silly exaggeration.
That early in the game it's a few hundred at most.

Secondly, the workshop menu has labelled submenus.
Reducing the amount of items you'd have to browse to a few dozens.
You wouldn't look for beds in the "power" or "food" categories now, would you?

How do you scarp items?

When in an area with a fucntioning workbench (on PC)
-Push and hold V
-Then highlight item to be scarapped like cars, mailboxes streetlights (those have some rare goodies in them like copper!)
- As you scrap stuff it shows up in your workbench ready to use to build new stuff.

On this note I LOVE the mod called "Codsworth do your dayum job".

It figures a robot with nothing to do for 200 years had maintened sanctuary with all intact roofs and half the houses even have furniture such as bed.
(the other half had their furniture cannibalized by Codsworth tryin to mkaintain at least some houses as original.
Players house looks worse for wear inside and out but everything roof+ furnituure is still there.
I know thats not really answering the mail to the OPs question but I love that mod and want to plug it here:

The root cellar in sanctuary has concrete building blocks you can scrap. Look around in Sanctuary at houses walls, there are the same building blocks sometimes reinforcing a wall, sometimes just lying around. Many cooking stations have them around the campfire.

Go to workbench inventory and press R to instant store all junk items
