| + | Getting the basic structure for your base is usually the one of the first things you do. You will need a base to install your solar panels, [[solid fuel generator]] and get the [[battery charger]] hooked up to an [[Power Control|APC]] to get power from the [[solar panels]]. You need frames to attach these [[:Category:Structures|structures]] too. | ||

| − | [[Iron Frames | + | [[Iron Frames]] are your basic building blocks. [[Iron walls]] can be used but they don't allow [[structures]] to be placed. Iron frames do not have to have iron sheets added on them to place structures. You can use the frame itself. The frame without sheets allows you to walk through it and place [[Cables|cables]] and [[Pipes|pipes]] inside. Which you can seal up after to pass connections through rooms. |

The frame is broken down in stages. First you remove the sheets using a [[wrench]] and then the [[Angle Grinder|angle grinder]] to take down the actual frame once all sheets are removed. | The frame is broken down in stages.
