So you got tekkit working, which is a challenge in its own, and now you want to start building all the new shiny

machines. What about a quarry? Well, you wont exactly be getting one of those anytime soon.

So, lets start by going through all the usual steps, getting iron, redstone and picking up those new ores you see around the caves. For the white diamondish ores (if youre using the sphax tekkit pack) and brownish, you'll only need a stone pick or above. Pick them up and you'll discover they are copper and tin. Get a stack of iron, copper, tin and a full stack of redstone, along with a good shelter, and you're ready for the new machines. Smelt 10 of the iron, then re-smelt that to make a new item, the refined iron, which is used to make machine blocks and other things. now, set half of you tin and copper to smelt and make a treetap, like so:

A rubber tree.

After this, go find some rubber trees. they look special, because they have a lighter colour wood and three leaves on top. Example:

So you can see that lil' orange thing on the side? Thats called sticky resin, and if you right click your treetap on that it will give you 1 to 3 sticky resin! (I personally havent goten any more than 3 on any occasion, fix the number if you have) It will regrow if it was on the tree origanally.Now, when you smelt that you get 1 rubber ball! Remeber that copper? Get three ingots, put them in the middle row and surround it with rubber balls to get 6 cables!

Now, get those cables, 1 refined iron and 2 redstone, and put the cables the same place you put your rubber balls, put the redston in the left and right slots of the middle row, and then put the refined iron in the middle and you get an electroinc circuit!

Now, get another 8 refined iron and place like a furnace in the crafting table, to get a machine block! Now, the first machine you'll want to get is an extractor. Do do so, you'll need for treetaps, which is 20 wooden planks, in the usual recipe. (Note: It is not advised to use your only treetap as part of this recipe, as the treetaps need to be in perfect condtion. Use dust for that. Im getting to it.) So, now get your machine block on the top middle, the electronic circuit under it. Put treetaps on the sides, to get an extractor.

Go plunk it down in a nice, big room. Put your sticky resin in the top and redstone in the bottom (but keep one sticky resin for later). You'll notice that it now make 3 Rubber per resin not 1! So, go get some more copper and make more cables! Get another cirucit (you'll want to memorise that recipe!), another machine block, 3 gravel and 2 cobblestone, and you can get a macerator:

Now, pick up the crafting table that would have to place to at the start, put it in the middle, three stone (smooth) on top and 4 planks on the sides, one chest underneath and you get a Project Table!

Now then, you can put things in the bottom 2 rows for later crafting, and when you close the table it wont throw it out. It even uses things from the inventory of the table if it can! (More coming soon, Stay tuned!)
