Overview
Moves an item from one container to another.
Stop carrying ore from the box to the furnace by hand. A conveyor pulls items out of one container and pushes them into another, so a large wood box full of ore can feed a large furnace while you are out farming the next load, and the metal finds its way back into storage without you.
It runs on power, and its links to other parts are laid with the pipe tool, not with the wire tool. A plain box has no industrial ports of its own, so it gets a storage adaptor first. Then you open the conveyor and set its filters, which decide what moves and what stays put: metal ore to one furnace, sulfur ore to another, the finished metal out to storage.
At 75 frags and a Level 1 bench it costs almost nothing, and it stacks to five. The real cost is the evening spent planning the line and the power to keep it running. Most groups build their first one when the furnace yard is already too big to babysit, and once it works nobody wants to go back.
