Press L2 to open the crafting menu. Crafted items deteriorate overtime, so keep a ready supply of materials for the crafted items you use the most.

Here are a few basic items you will want to craft early on.

• Fire - three grass and two logs
• Axe - one twig and one flint
• Trap - six grass and two sticks

As soon as you can, you should craft a science machine.

• Science Machine - pickaxe, four logs, four rocks, and one gold nugget
• Pickaxe - Craft this from two twigs and two flints.
• Logs - You can get these by chopping down trees.
• Rocks - You can find this in caves. A good strategy is to go to one of the yellow desert areas (a Savannah) or to the Rockylands and use your pickaxe to get rocks from boulders.
• Gold nugget - If you find a boulder with a vein of gold in it, you can mine the nugget with your pickaxe.
• Once you build a science machine, you can create a new item at the machine to earn 15 sanity points and gain the ability to craft that item anywhere. There are a few very useful items you should craft as soon as you have the science machine.
• Crock Pot - This will allow you to combine up to four food items into new recipes, which greatly improves the amount of hunger, health, and sanity food restores.
• Basic Farm - This will allow you to plants seeds and grow crops, so you have a ready supply of food.
• Drying Rack - You can use this to dry meat, which will improve the amount of health it restores and help you store it.

The science machine also allows you to craft better tools, weapons, and armor.

You can upgrade the science machine into the Alchemy Machine, which allows you to craft even more advanced items, such as a tent.
