Detailed walkthrough
Ore-to-Ingot sequence
Each image is either a marked game screenshot or a clearly labelled control diagram.
Remove finished Copper Ingots from the Furnace and reserve at least three before selling or crafting anything else.
The skateboard consumes three Ingots.
What you should seeCopper Ingot ×3 is available at the Worktable.
Field notes
Do not guess from the colour of a rock
The pickup name and the Furnace recipe are safer than an old ore map, especially during Early Access.
Confirm the pickup name
Mine a node and read the item toast. Keep moving if it is not Copper Ore.
Make fuel before loading ore
The Furnace cannot finish the batch without the required fuel. Queue Charcoal before you arrive with a full ore stack.
Collect the output
A finished machine does not place Ingots directly in the Bag. Interact with the Furnace and take the result.

Patch checkNode locations and batch counts may move during Early Access. Verify the pickup name and the live Furnace recipe instead of trusting an old map or screenshot.
