Where to find screws?

[Electric Gigolo]

I always have nearly every component execpt for screws. I'm scavenging around like a ♥♥♥♥♥ looking for them. Where the f**k are they?

You get it from scrapping weapons, but only with the correct perk. Other than that, I don't know.

Fans, toy cars and trucks, typewriters, watches and other mechanical stuff.

EDIT: Also, typewriters.

this; I stockpiled guns until I had at least scrapper 1 and got TONS of screws from them all.

Ive noticed you get a lot more material from the weapons with lots of mods; so ive started saving all the nicer guns with mods that I find to breakdown after I get scrapper 2. Specifically the lazer weapons with mods that ive found; to hopefully scrap that precious fiber optics. mmmhmm.

scrapper is an essential perk In this game, if you intend on Modding your own armor/weapons/power suit. I suppose you could just use what you find; but that's no fun; and you get EXP from crafting.

Also, guns seem to be worth more if you dismantle the mods and sell the mods to merchants; takes more time but nets a lot of cash.

Even better. Thanks!

Make sure to tag components you need before you head back out in the wasteland, makes sorting through which junk to salvage a LOT easier.
