Flatpack



Flatpack items are items of furniture built with the Construction skill, and are made at the Workbench in the Workshop of a Player-owned house (POH). The basic wooden workbench can make any flatpack item level 1 to 20, and higher tier benches can be used for increasingly higher-levelled flatpacks, with the highest level workbench, a bench with a lathe, being usable to make any flatpack item.

Flatpack items can be constructed with Building mode either on or off. A hammer and a saw are needed in your inventory or toolbelt to build flatpack items, and they are always built un-noted. At the workbench, the same amount of lumber, and nails if necessary, is used to construct the item as if it were actually built at the hotspot in the house. Not all items can be made as a flatpack. Generally, chairs, tables, and storage items, such as wardrobes and toy boxes, can be made as flatpacks. The advantage of making flatpack items is that there is no need to enter Building mode or remove any furniture from a hotspot.

While they are tradeable, there is not much traffic in flatpack items, and they do not gain much money at the general store. Any high-level constructors may make the actual item for their houses, while low-level constructors may purchase something that they cannot actually build yet.
