Bronze Nails
Bronze Nails hold most of the demo’s workbenches together. You get your first ones from junk: every broken barrel and trash pile drops 1 or 2, and the broken shelves 2 or 3. After that they are made on the Wooden Anvil, either 6 from one Bronze Scrap or 12 from one Bronze Ingot.
The first workbench that needs them is the Woodworking Workbench I (4), and without it there are no Wooden Planks. After that come the Stonemason’s Workbench (2), the Firewood shed (2), the Hardening Bucket (8), the Tool Rack (6), the Autopsy Table I and Corpse Pallet I (4 each), and every barricade in the Barracks (6).

Notes
- Nails from scrap need only Smithing 1, which the Rusty Hammer from the graveyard chest gives. Nails from an ingot need Smithing 2.
- The ingot recipe does not show on the technology. It is unlocked by Bronze Melting, but only the furnace appears among that technology’s unlocks.
- Making nails counts toward Bronze Crafter, one of the easiest ways to your first Smithing talent point.
