This games players crack me up.

I haven't run outa anything...cause I don't over do tha crafting.

I haven't run outa places ta go...cause I don't over do tha exploring.

I haven't run outa quests...cause I don't rush though tha game.

And that's cool people play how ya want....but don't blame tha game for your play style that does not utilize all tha parts of tha game.

So not just this OP and his issue...a lot of players of this game need some balance and self control.

shipment dupe glitch before they patch it. I've use well over 28k wood, and could probably use another 28k easy.

Or if you're holier than thou, 2 legit mr hammer. abernathy, greygarden, DC wood runs are the way to go, but that's only 200 wood a day.

you can buy it at finch farm too, but that's out of the way and you'll end up having to wait for shops to open.

Other things that will net you negligible amounts of wood, buying junk from venders, scavageing stations

Shipment Dupe Glitch... even AFTER they patch it out by reinstalling the game refusing all patches.

You got wood. I got oil. I'm using an immersive fast travel mod that requires me to build vehicles to travel between settlements, and I never have enough oil to build the motorcycle.

One venture to anywhere, could mean a grand adventure for an oil can. Man, is that not just pure fallout?

I get oil and wood in nice amounts every time I clear any location. Neither is hard to get, and it sounds like either that mod consumes a little too much oil, maybe the amount of oil gained by scrapping items should be increased a bit, or maybe the mod author expected people to walk more and use that vehicle less often. Either way it sounds like a balance issue.


Build a water purification farm and caps become irrelevant, so going to Abernathy and DC once every 24 hours to trade water for shipments is pretty easy. There's no rush, no absolute need to have 100k wood there and then, just do a little each day and you can still build structures as large as you want them to be. Having a constant source after all the 'easy' scrappable trees are gone is all that matters, and you do have ways to stockpile pretty much anything. Shipments are one way, knowing good loot spots is another - if I need lead for example I go to General Atomics Galleria and scrap all the weight and dumbells found there.

Diamond City worth visiting, there may be some traders there or else as someone suggesting, take everything that is not nailed to the wall. Scrap weapons should do as well.

build a lumber camp, its super secret and I wont tell how tho

It sounds like it would be a fairly straightforward mod to make, and I wouldn't be surprised if someone makes a "Skyrim sawmill" type device you can assign settlers to which produces wood like purifiers produce water. I haven't checked to see if one exists yet though.

Good idea. Sawmills. One you can place anywhere where the trees are. You should also be able to have guards. Maybe have the thing in the settlement would be ok as well.

spectacle island. you can scrap every tree on the entire island. i built my entire hangmans alley (spent a good amount of wood too) with the wood from the island and i still have like 3000 wood left.

There's already a mod..Northland Diggers. Which add Jobs, including Lumber Harvesting, Concrete Smashers, and Heavy Metal collection tables. Other than that all Vanilla options have been suggested.

wtf? How can you have trouble finding wood? Just pick ueverything that contains wood up when you're out on missions and then scrap them.... go to trader/general traders and buy up all the crap containing wood.... and obviously the people that sell wood has been mentioned. I pick up wood no matter what when I'm out. Pencils and clip boards are awesome cuz they weigh nearly nothing, screw drivers are EVERYWHERE... wood and steel right there, brooms, mops, toy blocks, toy cars, test tube racks, baseball bats, boards, chess boards... there's more but I cant name them all.... you'll only run out of wood if you're building sky scraqers in your settlements with pointless rooms such as a night club and then you spend all your time doing this while never venturing out into the game. This game is built as a survival game, not minecraft. You have to go out and scavenge if you want resources to build up your settlements. Also, having all of your settlements connected via provisioners helps make things less painful so you can just go to your nearest settlement and drop off all your junk, scrap it, then be back on your way to the next quest. If that is not enough, bring a follower with you and just have then pick everything up (point and command followers to pick items up and they will never run out of space). There's no way to run out of supplis unless you're lazy or treating the game like the sims.

Someone mentioned adhesive being rare.... what? Adhesive is everywhere. I find different forms of glue EVERYWHERE and Duck tape seems to grown on trees in this game. Both items are super light weight as well. wtf is wrong with people...

the baseball guy in diamond city does as well have wood shipments

You can't get Wood?

LoL well the game has been out for a while. You are right to some degree tho. I am looking forward to the DLC's. Stuff flows in when I have quests to run.

Go to Spectacle Island

Some weapon, armor and pa modifications drink up valuable resources. I prefer dismounting modes from weapons and armor that I find, like exchanging polymer coating with the standard, to be used on a better piece of armor. Also frequently repairing and modding pa will consume a lot.


To have more wood, try using metal walls instead of wooden ones. Wood for the floors, metal for roof and walls. Not aesthetic, i know. But practical

WOW 4085 wood from Spectacle Island. Great Tip

Thanks !
