Wooden Gear
A basic gear for use in early wooden machinery.
Notes
The Wooden Gear is a basic mechanical part crafted early in the game for use in simple wooden machinery, such as the Loom and the Machinist Table. As a lightweight ingredient and parts item, stocking Wooden Gears in a store helps other players start their own textile or advanced crafting setups without needing to craft the gears themselves. It is produced using a specific recipe and is a key early component for transitioning from primitive tools to more complex workstations.
