Workshop
The advancement of a town depends on the construction of a shabby workshop full of nondescript clutter. It allows resources to be converted and is a pre-requisite for the construction of other more advanced buildings.

The hammer of hammers, the sawing of saws, the hacking of hacksaws, the metalling of metal, they all take place in this important building. Who knows who had the idea of it? Some say it was named after it's inventor, other claim the the brilliant man was named after one! No one really knows, suffice to say that stuff gets converted here.

The advancement of a town depends on the construction of a shabby workshop full of nondescript clutter. It is a pre-requisite for the construction of other more advanced buildings.

Using the workshop initially costs 3 per item. The cost can be reduced two ways:

• Constructing a Factory Factory will permanently reduce the cost by 1.
• Finding a Broken Hacksaw Broken Hacksaw and repairing it (to yield a Hacksaw Hacksaw) will reduce the cost by 1, but only if it is in your inventory while doing conversions.

Note that these methods stack-- having both a Factory Factory and Hacksaw Hacksaw will reduce the cost to 1. Having a second Hacksaw Hacksaw in your inventory does not give a further bonus, however. Also be sure to place the Hacksaw Hacksaw back in the bank, lest you wind up being shunned.
