⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Huge community trust: 53k endorsements and 1.7M downloads show this mod is a staple.
- Fills a real gap in Fallout 4 by letting you craft weapons, armor, and ammo without mods.
- Gives you a dedicated workbench instead of forcing you to use the chemistry station for everything.
👎 Cons
- Last updated in 2016, so it may not be fully compatible with the latest game patches or DLC.
- No detailed feature list or install instructions in the description, so you'll have to figure out specifics in-game.
- Balanced crafting might feel too grindy for players who prefer simpler, cheat-like crafting mods.
