To build the Rebel Workbench, you must first get Plastoid. This special material drops from defeated Stormtroopers and some Star Wars building parts when destroyed.

Getting the Macrobinoculars will help you locate these resources.

Once you have Plastoid, collect five regular Wood and eight Plastoids to make the Rebel Workbench.

Go to the Utility tab in the build menu, and you’ll find the recipe at the very bottom.

Here’s how to get each item:

  • Wood: Look in the Grasslands for logs on the ground and chop down trees to get Wood.
  • Plastoids: Fight the tough Stormtroopers. Follow the crashed Star Destroyer site for your best chance to find them. Be careful, as they won’t go down easily.
