Cheers , I will

@Kable - could be they changed the IDs at some point, I'll take a look when I have some free time. Just let 'em pile up in a corner for now XD

@Monkey Magic
Works a treat, but I got a bunch of "Empty Soda Cans" after emptying them, don't seem to be in the eligible field "Pop Can", they're vanilla soda cans and modded cans from Pomp's Items - Just the Food

@Kable - Off the top of my head? I believe scrapping cans doesn't require any skill level, iunno about the others.

Any recipes for level 0 Welding? I didn't adjust the sandbox settings from vanilla and disabled car wrecks from spawning.

I have now added the recipes to scrap external car parts (doors, hoods and trunk lids) since these things were cluttering up my yard. This only includes vanilla parts, but should also work for car mods that do not add custom parts.

Consequently, all tin can recipes have been merged into one recipe (existing saves may need to re-read the recipe book) as the in-game metalworking recipe list was looking bulky. Also a new book with recipes for the car part scrapping. All car parts scrap to scrap metal, but the number varies by type.

@DerBoora - Nah, it's really just for balancing out the issues with RNG rewards on loot drops. I find that metal bars and scrap meta drop far more often than other parts (sheets, pipes) despite the latter being required for repairs, and crafting (metal fencing) and the former having limited use.


I added the other recipes as a fun alternative to just deleting the empty cans. I was thinking about maybe adding vanilla car parts, but there are mechanic mods that already do that.

Does this mod allow me to craft metal shelves? (you know the typical storage ones you can only find and not craft, the 2 tile wide ones with 100 total space) if not could you make it possible please? i have been looking for a mod that adds that but noones actually done it yet...
