Notes

Prior to version 1.4, the metalwork bench only had one level, having the appearance of what is now the level 2 metalwork bench. It could only craft the metal blocks, safes, iron doors, and iron trapdoors.

In version 1.5, the iron pot and steel lanterns was moved from level 2 to level 1. Steel downlights, steel uplights, copper columns/stairs, tin columns/stairs, bronze columns/stairs, iron columns/stairs, steel columns/stairs, gold columns/stairs, electric elevator motor, and elevator shafts were introduced as well.
