Tools
From Project Rebearth
(Redirected from Tool)
Tools are a refined resource in Project Rebearth, produced by the Tools Workshop from 
Metal and 
Wood. They serve a dual role in the game: as a construction material for advanced buildings and as an ongoing maintenance cost consumed by most production buildings. Maintaining a steady 
Tools supply is essential for any settlement with advanced industry.
Overview
[edit]The Tools Workshop converts 4 Metal/day and 5 Wood/day into 2 Tools/day, requiring 10 workers. The production rate of 2 Tools/day must be balanced against the combined consumption of all buildings that require Tools maintenance. As a settlement grows and adds more production buildings, the demand for Tools escalates rapidly.
Tools are also required as a one-time construction cost for many advanced buildings including the Windmill, Bakery, Refinery, Glassworks, Iron Mine, Port, University, Museum, and Town Hall. The University and Museum are the most expensive at 100 Tools each, while the Port requires 50 Tools.
Production
[edit]| Building | Tools Output |
Metal Input |

Workers | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tools Workshop | +2/day | -4/day | -5/day | 10 | Only source of Tools

The Tools Workshop is the only building that produces Tools. It requires both Metal (from the Refinery) and Wood as inputs.
Production chains
[edit]Full Tools chain
[edit]The complete chain begins with the Iron Mine extracting 
Ore, which the Refinery smelts into Metal, and finally the Tools Workshop forges Metal and Wood into Tools. This is one of the longest production chains in the game and requires significant worker investment across all three buildings.
Consumption
[edit] Tools are consumed as ongoing maintenance by a wide range of production buildings. The following table lists all buildings with Tools consumption rates.
| Building | Tools Rate |
Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Iron Mine | N/A/day | All biomes |
| Improved Iron Mine | -1/day | All biomes; upgraded version |
| Stone Crane | -0.1/day | All biomes |
| Improved Stone Crane | -1/day | All biomes; upgraded version |
| Clay Crane | -0.1/day | All biomes |
| Improved Clay Crane | -1/day | All biomes; upgraded version |
| Glassworks | -0.5/day | |
| Saw | -0.2/day | Child of Woodcutter |
| Refinery | -0.2/day | |
| Windmill | -0.1/day | |
| Bakery | -0.1/day | |
| Tailor | -0.1/day | |
| Brewery | -0.1/day | |
| Creamery | -0.1/day | |
| Woodcutter | -0.05/day | Wood Biome only |
| Tent | -0.025/day | Wood Biome only; child of Woodcutter |
The Iron Mine and its upgraded variant are the largest consumers of Tools at N/A Tools/day each. The upgraded cranes (Improved Stone Crane, Improved Clay Crane) also consume -1 Tools/day each. Note that the Woodcutter and Tent only consume Tools in the Wood Biome.
Construction
[edit] Tools are required as a one-time construction cost for these buildings:
Storage
[edit]| Building | Volume | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Center | 5,000 | Shared with all resources |
| Square | 10,000 | Shared with all resources |
| Warehouse | 5,000 | Shared with all resources |
| Tools Workshop | 50 | Tools only
|
Other sources
[edit] Tools can be purchased from other players through the Market (up to 1,000 capacity) or the Port (up to 5,000 capacity). Trading for Tools is often necessary in the early game before the full Iron Mine to Tools Workshop chain is established.
Affected by
[edit] Tools production is affected only by the all production modifier, which applies to every production building including the Tools Workshop. The goods production modifier targets only Wood, 
Stone, and 
Earth, and does not apply to Tools.
| Effect | Source | Multiplier | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| All production | New Town Boost | 2 | Automatic (4 days) |
| Great Federation | 1.1 | Alliance type | |
| Science League | 0.8 | Alliance type |
Changelog
[edit]February 23, 2026
February 21, 2026
- Balance Removed the Tools requirement for the Iron Mine, making the tools production chain more profitable.
February 17, 2026
- Balance Woodcutters and Tents in the Wood Biome now require a small amount of Tools (−0.05/day), balancing exponential growth in the Wood Biome and increasing demand for the Stone Biome's tool production. The Nursery is unaffected. Tools consumption of the Saw was also lowered.
