How to Make Menril Resin and Crystallized Menril
Getting Resin from Menril Trees
Find a Menril Log in the world and break Menril Leaves to collect Menril Sapling and Menril Berries. Plant Menril Sapling on dirt to grow more Menril Log, Menril Wood, and Stripped Menril Log variants. Place a Squeezer and put Menril Berries or Menril Log inside to press out Menril Resin. You can also fill a Menril Resin Bucket directly from the Squeezer output. For faster throughput, build a Mechanical Squeezer and feed it with a Generator or Energy Battery so it runs without manual cranking.
Drying Resin into Crystallized Menril
Route Menril Resin into a Drying Basin. The basin slowly converts the liquid into Crystallized Menril Chunk. Swap in a Mechanical Drying Basin to speed this up using energy from a Generator or Energy Battery. Once you have Crystallized Menril Chunk, craft them into Block of Crystallized Menril, then cut those blocks into Crystallized Menril Slab, Crystallized Menril Stairs, Crystallized Menril Brick, Crystallized Menril Brick Slab, and Crystallized Menril Brick Stairs using a stonecutter or crafting grid.
Chorus Variants
Proto Chorus grows in the world and can be processed the same way to yield Liquid Chorus and Crystallized Chorus Chunk. Dry and craft those into Block of Crystallized Chorus, Crystallized Chorus Slab, Crystallized Chorus Stairs, Crystallized Chorus Brick, Crystallized Chorus Brick Slab, and Crystallized Chorus Brick Stairs. Store finished chunks and blocks near your Logic Programmer bench so you can build Logic Cable and parts without running back to the farm.
