Lead, from scratch

Breaking every ingredient down to materials with no recipe of their own, one Lead traces back to roughly:

  • String
    5×String

Some steps produce more than one at a time. A log yields four planks and four planks yield four sticks, for example. The counts above are rounded up to whole crafting steps, so you will likely end up with a few spares along the way.

  1. Open a crafting table to access the 3×3 crafting grid.
  2. Place 5× String in the grid exactly as shown in the layout above.
  3. Drag the Lead from the result box into your inventory. You'll receive 2 at a time.
