Pulverizer
Pulverizers are a type of mechanism in Vintage Story. It is used to crush ores and minerals that are too hard to be powdered in a quern.
Creation
Pulverizers are made out of a pulverizer frame, a pulverizer toggle, and two capped pounders.
Pulverizer frames hold the entire mechanism together. It is a two-block high structure. It takes a hopper input from the top and outputs items to the front. The pulverizer toggle must be placed within a pulverizer frame, and an axle should be connected to it in order to power the entire mechanism. Two pounders must then be attached to the frame, and capped.
Pounder caps
Pounders must be capped with a metal cap. These can be smithed out of any bronze, iron, meteoric iron or steel. Both caps must be placed at the same time, and require a stack of 2 to place. Therefore, both pulverizer caps must always be made out of the same material. The tier of the metal used for the cap will determine what materials the pulverizer can process.
Usage
Pulverizers must be powered via a windmill or similar mechanism in order to function, and cannot be manually operated.
