How to Upgrade Workbench

Upgrading your workbench will allow you to get more building recipes, which is something you might be eagerly looking for. Considering that at this point you have played a good chunk of the early stages of the game, which is that you already have at least beaten the first boss. This is because beating Eikthyr rewards you with the pickaxe recipe.

The second item that you require is the recipe for the chopping block recipe, which is another easy item to get, as it only requires you to find flint in the game. Now with the two items, you can then begin upgrading your workbench.

To upgrade the workbench, you first need one to begin with. If you don’t collect the required material to craft a workbench by equipping the hammer in your hand and then going to the Build Menu below on the lower right side of the screen. With the workbench built, your next task is to build a structure, a base or a house around it.

With the workbench inside the building, equip your hammer and go into the Build Menu again to locate the chopping block recipe. Provided that you have the materials, craft the chopping block next to the workbench. As you will see, this will be seen as the building improvement for the workbench, raising its level and unlock additional building recipes for you.
