How to Make an Acorn Shovel

Learn how to craft the Acorn Shovel in Grounded! Discover the required materials like Acorn Shells, Crude Rope, and Sprigs, and how to find them.

Alright, let's get you geared up with the Acorn Shovel in Grounded! This little tool is super handy for digging up certain things later on. You'll need to have a handle on a few crafting basics before you can whip this one up.

Here's the lowdown:

• You'll need to be Brainpower Level 3 to even think about crafting this.
• You can analyze Acorn Shells or Crude Rope to unlock the recipe.
• Once unlocked, you can craft it right from your inventory – no crafting station needed!

How to Get the Materials for the Acorn Shovel

You'll need three things to craft the Acorn Shovel:

Getting Acorn Shells

First up, the Acorn Shell. You get these by smashing open acorns with a hammer. The best place to find a bunch of acorns is usually around the Oak Lab. Just be super careful, because that area is crawling with spiders!

If you don't have a hammer yet, don't sweat it. Check out our guide on how to make a Pebblet Hammer – you'll need that for other stuff too!

Getting Sprigs

Next, Sprigs. These are those common little plants with two leaves you see all over the yard. The best part? You can just pick them right off the ground without needing any tools. Easy peasy!

Getting Crude Rope

Finally, Crude Rope. You can craft this yourself by hand, but you'll need Plant Fiber first. You get Plant Fiber from those small, low-lying plants scattered everywhere. Here's the catch: you actually need to analyze a Plant Fiber at the Resource Analyzer first to unlock the Crude Rope recipe. So, grab some fiber, analyze it, and then you can craft your Crude Rope!
