Find a building site atop of a wire knot (in front of an APC works well). | |||

Add the Bluespace Crystal to the frame. | |||

Add the capacitor to the frame. | |||

IMPORTANT: Linking to another quantum pad requires you to copy the buffer data from this quantum pad and vice versa. | |||
To access the buffer data, use a screwdriver to open the side panel. | |||
Use a multitool to copy the data (This data is now saved onto your multitool). | |||
Close the panel with a screwdriver. | |||
To link back to this teleporter, use the multitool on another quantum pad with the panel '''closed'''. | |||
The second quantum pad is now linked to the first and will teleport you back to the original. Obtain the buffer data from the second quantum pad, and teleport back to the first, and add this data to the first pad. You have now got a functional two way teleporter. | |||

|
Screwdriver the welder Add rods to the welder to create the flamethrower Screwdriver the igniter Add the igniter to the flamethrower Screwdriver to finish Load a Phoron tank - high pressures work best
You can also get one from a hacked Autolathe, minus the plasma tank. It is not very useful but it is used in science and it can destroy alien weeds.
Disposal Pipes and Machinery
| Requires |
|---|
| 1 x Disposal Pipe/Machine, , ,
|
Retrieve the pipe/machine from the Disposal Pipe Dispenser (found in Atmosia) Crowbar floortile if exists to access plating Move pipe over plating, rotate and flip using the rightclick menu Wrench pipe Weld pipe
Solar Panels and Trackers
| Requires |
|---|
 , , or , (OPTIONAL)
|
Place the solar assembly on where you want to construct your solar panel/tracker. To connect it to a wire you must construct it under a wire node. Wrench the solar assembly into place. Add the electronics if you want to create a solar tracker (OPTIONAL) Finish the construction by placing glass, or reinforced glass, into the assembly frame.
Bookcase
| Requires |
|---|
5 x  , ,
|
Construct a frame with 4 wooden planks. Wrench the frame into place. Add a plank to the frame to make a shelf.
Quantum Pad
| Requires |
|---|
 , , , , 1x Manipulator (Quality determines how quickly it can teleport), 1x Capacitor (Quality determines how quickly it charges), 5x ,
|
Find a building site atop of a wire knot (in front of an APC works well). Construct frame parts with the steel sheets. Construct a machine frame with the frame parts. Wrench the machine frame in place. Add the circuit (qauntum pad) to the machine frame. Screwdriver the frame. Add Cable to the frame. Add the Bluespace Crystal to the frame. Add the manipulator to the frame. Add the capacitor to the frame. Add more cable, and the quantum pad should now look complete. IMPORTANT: Linking to another quantum pad requires you to copy the buffer data from this quantum pad and vice versa. To access the buffer data, use a screwdriver to open the side panel. Use a multitool to copy the data (This data is now saved onto your multitool). Close the panel with a screwdriver. To link back to this teleporter, use the multitool on another quantum pad with the panel closed. The second quantum pad is now linked to the first and will teleport you back to the original. Obtain the buffer data from the second quantum pad, and teleport back to the first, and add this data to the first pad. You have now got a functional two way teleporter.
Deconstruction
