Lego Fortnite: Complete Guide To Utility Stations (2024)

While you can run around the different biomes for fun in Lego Fortnite, you’ll eventually need to focus on gathering various unique resources. These will be used to build up your village, upgrade your equipment, feed yourself to prevent starvation, and more.

To help you on your adventures, and to make better types of materials, you have several types of utility stations at your disposal. As you progress in the game and upgrade your Crafting Bench, you’ll get access to more and more stations. Here’s what you’ll need to unlock and build every utility station, plus everything you can craft using them.

Lumber Mill

Each utility station will unlock once you have found the required materials you'll need to build it. Depending on how far in your adventures you have gotten, some utility stations might be locked behind upgrades to your crafting bench or the creation of other utility stations.

Luckily, the Lumber Mill is one of the first stations you'll be able to build as it uses basic items you'll find on the ground. Here is its recipe:

The Lumber Mill will be important for making items like Planks and Rods to use in crafting. These will be needed to build Chests, stronger weapons, various buildings, and more.
