Deconstructor
Destroys crafted items, but salvages their most valuable material.
Information
Source:	Qi's Walnut Room for 20
Sell Price:	Cannot be sold

A Deconstructor can be used to salvage some of the material of a crafted item. It can be purchased for 20 Qi Gems at Qi's Walnut Room.

Use

The game will check the given crafting item's ingredients and compare their selling price in the Shipping Bin. It will return 100% of the highest value material. It takes 60m (1h) to process.

Some items cannot be placed in the Deconstructor. If a player attempts to put something into the Deconstructor that it doesn't accept, they will receive a pop-up saying, "This item can't be scrapped."

Tips

• The Deconstructor allows players to indirectly purchase resources from shops. Interesting items in this matter include:

Item	Price	Store	Deconstructor Output
Grass Starter	100g	Pierre's General Store	Fiber (10)
Cork Bobber	750g	Fish Shop	Hardwood (5)
Trap Bobber	500g	Fish Shop	Copper Bar (1)
Spinner	500g	Fish Shop	Iron Bar (2)
Treasure Hunter	750g	Fish Shop	Gold Bar (2)
Dressed Spinner	1,000g	Fish Shop	Cloth (1)
Staircase	Jade (1)	Desert Trader (Sunday)	Stone (99)
Warp Totem: Desert	Omni Geode (3)	Desert Trader	Iridium Ore (4)
Warp Totem: Farm	500 (5,000g)	Casino	Honey (1)
Hopper	10 Qi Gems	Qi's Walnut Room	Radioactive Bar (1)

• Some resources obtained with the deconstructed items listed above are cheaper than the equivalent raw materials bought from a shop, namely: bars are cheaper than buying coal and the respective ores at the Blacksmith, and wood chipped from hardwood is cheaper than buying it from the Carpenter's Shop in year 2+.
• Fishing Tackle can be deconstructed at any durability level. This allows certain tackle like Treasure Hunter and Trap Bobber to be refreshed at little to no cost.
• It is possible to repeatedly craft and deconstruct items like Chests, Staircases, Carved Braziers, or Skull Braziers to "collect" resources for a Special Order.
• If the Ancient Seed artifact has not been found yet, one can deconstruct a packet of Ancient Seeds obtained from a Seed Maker to obtain the artifact so it can be donated.
• If an item's recipe was changed at some point (e.g., the Skull Brazier), the Deconstructor will return the highest value item based on the current recipe - it will not look back to see the materials originally used, even if the particular item was crafted before the recipe change.
• Rain Totems obtained from treasure rooms in the Skull Cavern can be deconstructed into Truffle Oil to greatly increase the sell price from 20g to 1,065g, or 1,491g with the Artisan Profession.
