Sturdy Tub

Sources

A Sturdy Tub requires the Flax Processing skill. It is an improvement to a Basic Tub but still can crumble unlike the Marble Tub.

Cost

• 6 Beeswax
• 240 Bricks
• 6 Canvas

Use

A Sturdy Tub is the intermediary tub and has the following uses:

• Rot 20 Dung in 20 water to create 4 Saltpeter (20 teppy minutes).
• Rot Flax into Rotten Flax.
• Produce Sulfur from Sulphurous Water (1 sulfur produced every 1 teppy minute, 20 mins for 20 sulfur)
• Steep Clay in Canvas with 10 Clay and 20 Water in Jugs to create Clay-Steeped Canvas in 3 minutes.
• Steep Clay in Wool Cloth with 10 Clay and 20 Water in Jugs to create Clay-Steeped Wool Cloth in 4 minutes.

A Sturdy Tub can hold 100 Dung and 20 Water or Sulphurous Water. You can add more water at any time to continue a process.

After some number of uses, the tub will crumble to dust (no resources returned).

The Marble Tub is the next step up in quality.

Comments

• This tub is more robust than the Basic Tub and about the same cost - build this one.
• Always better to rot flax in a river/lake rather than a tub as the river/lake doesn't break.
• If the tub is near the end of its lifetime, salvage it to recover some materials rather than letting them go to dust.
  • If built and used in banks, one or two of the bank will wear out first giving warning that now is the time to salvage/rebuild.
• If you can afford it, the Marble Tub is considerably longer lasting (that is to say, the Marble tub doesn't crumble at all).
