Young Suns Recipes: Read the Workbench and Printer Requirements

A compact observed recipe reference for the mop, Junkcraft bed and Recycled metallics.

Your next move

Workbench and Printer are separate crafting interfaces. The historical April 14, 2026 version 0.5.0 update, Parts and Crafts, connects Wednesday workbenches to crafting stations and describes repairing the 3D Printer as a material-gated step that unlocks more recipes. The exact menu quantities below remain observations from a 1.0-titled recording, not a current repair checklist.

Three observed recipes

These are menu requirements from the September 1 upload, not a complete recipe database. Fractions show owned amounts first and required amounts second. Only the mop’s output quantity is confirmed by its completed craft.

How the workbench and Printer tasks connect

The April 14, 2026 version 0.5.0 update, Parts and Crafts, says crafting stations are unlocked for everyone and can be crafted at workbenches on Wednesday station. Once built, those stations let players craft on the ship instead of returning to Wednesday for each item.

The same notes describe repairing Wednesday’s 3D Printer as a progression hurdle. Its material requirements were reduced and spread out so players could repair it sooner and unlock more recipes. The notes do not list those repair materials or inputs, so follow the current in-game repair objective for that task rather than treating one recorded recipe card as the Printer repair bill.

Pin a furnishing recipe while gathering

Select a recipe card to see its ingredient panel. The workbench provides a Pin recipe action, so the bed’s longer material list can remain the gathering target. Its presence in this menu follows the player’s earlier conversation with Duck; this source does not prove the recipe is available on every new save.

Use the matching station

The red workbench beside the scrap bin repairs the mop. The nearby Printer uses a different recipe collection, including Recycled metallics. For the entire broken-tool sequence rather than just ingredients, follow Born to mop. Follow the Synthetic thread tutorial to use the Printer and hand the result to Morton.
