What is it

A Drying Frame is used to dry fresh hides from animals. Dried hides are further tanned to produce leather or crafted into an item. The drying frame can also be used to dry Wild Windsown Weeds (WWWs), but it takes significantly more time than on a Herbalist Table. You will obtain 5 seeds of crops that have seeds, or one unit of crops that don't (such as Beetroots or Yellow Onions)

Note: A drying frame is destroyed within two decay hits and cannot be built inside. It is better build on a claim to prevent decay. When a drying rack turns red, it is in risk of being destroyed and should be repaired with a single piece of string.

Drying rack quality does not affect the quality of skins or WWWs dried upon it, but it does affect their speed of drying.

How to Acquire

Obtain 2 Tree Boughs, 5 Branches and 2 pieces of String, then build the frame.

How to Use

Right-click the built frame, place item into it, then wait for them to dry.

A Wheelbarrow can also be used to place fresh hides on drying frames. (but not to pickup dried hides)

Quality

• Drying Frame Build Quality: ${\frac {_{q}Bough+_{q}Branch+_{q}String}{3}}$

• Quality of Drying Frame affect speed of drying Hides, Dried Filet of Fish and WWW.

Quality	Speed %
10	100
80	200
270	300

• Speed % = $100*{\sqrt[{3}]{\frac {_{q}DryingFrame}{10}}}$

Notes

• (Terrain) A drying frame can't be build on Ice.

Time

The base length of time it takes to dry the various items:

• Rx: Ratio of presumed minimum base time (14:36:00).
