A Tinker's Shovel is a tool used to perform various actions. It can be used to dig for Clay, Soil, Sand and Snow for 20% per tick, to quickly remove Tree Stumps, to dig up Bushes, and to plant Tree Seeds

While using Land Surveys, a Tinker's Shovel digs a base speed of 3 units of soil per action, modified by quality.

How to Acquire

To craft, you must click on it in the Craft Menu, and you'll be allowed to place a mold for it. Craft the mold from 5 clay or sand (The mold quality lightly affects the product) and melt 3 Bars of Common Metal inside. It must be roughly close to a lit smelter or stack furnace to melt the metal bars. If you built in a wrong spot, you can lift it while it's empty, but once you've melted bars into it, it becomes immobile. When you've added 3 bars, it will sit and cool for 8 real life hours. After this, you can right click and select Crack! The mold will be destroyed and the shovel will be left sitting on the ground for you.
