Fallout 4 Crafting

Basics
It is possible to craft a variety of in-game items like consumables or grenades using workbenches located throughout The Commonwealth. As opposed to crafting in Fallout: New Vegas, it is not possible to craft your own ammunition or ammunition subtypes in Fallout 4 in the vanilla game, with the exception of grenades and Syringe ammunition for the Syringer rifle. Modding is carried out by applying pre-defined components to armor and weapons, like e.g. adding lead to armor parts for enhanced radiation resistance or equipping several types of barrels on firearms. Modding or crafting does not generally require schematics, but certain active player perks affiliated to the type of modding, e.g. Science! for modding energy weapons or Armorer for Armor.

These include:


 * Chemistry station For crafting drugs, medicine, grenades, mines, Syringer ammo, and Cutting Fluid
 * Armor workbench For scrapping, repairing, and modifying Armor and clothing
 * Power armor station For repairing and modifying Power armor
 * Workshop For scrapping and building buildings, furniture, and various equipment for settlements.
 * Cooking station For preparing scavanged edible items.
 * Weapons workbench For scrapping and building weapon mods using parts from a variety of weapons.

Crafting shopping list

 * Collapsed buildings, cars, street lamps, almost anything lying about within a workstation area can be scrapped for building materials. While you are in the structures/crafting screen, point your sights towards one of these objects and it will light up. To scrap an item, press the square button for PS4, X for Xbox One or R for PC.
 * NOTE: All items in scrapped containers will be moved to the workshop's storage, accessible from any crafting station, or from the workbench itself.
