How to craft a Compost Bin in LEGO Fortnite
The recipe to make a Compost Bin is:
- 5 Planks
- 2 Soil
- 1 Sand
- 3 Fertilizer
Planks are obtained by feeding wood through a Lumber Mill. To get Soil, you must use a shovel to dig in grassy parts of your world. Similarly, digging in the desert biome will see Sand added to your inventory. Lastly, Fertilizer is dropped by animals such as cows and sheep, which can be found roaming around the grassy biome.
When you’ve gathered all the relevant materials, the blueprint for the Compost Bin can be found in the Utility section of the Build Menu. Simply place it down anywhere in your world and begin putting the pieces together and you have yourself a new station.
To use the Compost Bin, interact with it to place any unwanted items inside and it will start breaking them down into Biomass, Fertilizer, or Soil. The amount and rarity of the resources the Compost Bin produces ultimately depends on what you put in.
Now you know how to craft a Compost Bin in LEGO Fortnite, your old items will no longer go to waste!
