Machine Shop
Informational Guide on the Duskwork's Machine Shop and trivia on previous usage from the Ad Astra Landings.
The machine shop was another pivotal building, a marker like the steam engine of the industrial age. Having a building capable of producing more advanced metal parts onto the sister planet was regarded as one of the highest achievements in the decade. This fame did not come for no reason, as the machine shop is what allowed the Ad Astra Development Zone to create the massive amounts of rovers that currently preside over the surface. It was influential enough to even have its own statue displayed predominantly in the industrial district off of one of Ad Astra's oldest town.
The Duskwork's machine shop, much like most of it's machinery bears a striking resemblance to the original machine shops used in the Ad Astra landings. It however was outfitted with the ability to weld more advanced rover parts and the fabrication of metal plates, a small difference from the original usage of the machine shop during the Ad Astra time.


Let's see how the Machine Shop works!

Sometimes, you have to throw things out, and sometimes, you don't want it to go to waste. While solar panels are incredibly useful on the red planet, sometimes you have too many and want to have their components instead. The Duskworks company has released documentation on how to carefully dismantle these solar panels in order to reclaim as much material as possible.
I'll still miss that poor solar panel though.

Okay, maybe you're doing a bit of spring cleaning! That's fine! That's okay! I just really liked those solar panels. The higher quality solar panels contain more and better components, even if you had to tear them apart... It's also a good source of experience, experience in electrical and murdering poor solar panels.

This is a bit much, don't you think? Disassembling this high of a quality solar panel will allow you to extract the electronic parts from the remains, along with some of the electrical grade silicon from the solar cells to be used in other solar panels.
That solar panel will never see the light of day again, but on the bright-, err, dark side, you have a bunch of new valuable electronics to make more of them... right?

Maybe we could disassemble a different building? I really really like this one. It's shiny and purple! It shines in the light and gives us power for all of our cool buildings. No? Okay, whatever you want!
This very high quality solar panel contains more electronic parts and electrical grade silicon, along with a lot more experience in being a monster to those solar panels- I mean, electrical experience.

This thing could've been an artifact in a different life! Are you really going to disassemble such an important cornerstone in our history? I mean, it's just a solar panel, but it can be so much more than that!
Well, okay not much more, but still, I really like solar panels. Maybe you should donate it instead, to a settler who won't grind up the solar panel? I think Lamp would have a great home for it... No? Fine. You will get a large amount of valuable electronics from this solar panel as well as a high amount of electrical XP.
