In The Front, Resin is a critical resource for crafting and building. While you can obtain Resin by cutting down trees, this method is painfully slow. Resin is greatly needed as you survive in the post-apocalyptic sandbox survival game The Front.

This guide will show you a more efficient way to get Resin fast in The Front so you can get back to the action without wasting time. If you’re after followers to operate these stations for you, check out our How to Get Followers in The Front guide.

The Front Resin Guide

As mentioned above, you can get Resin in the Front by cutting down trees, but it’s not guaranteed, and the amount you need of Resin is not worth the grind. You’ll need to unlock the Grinding Table to speed up your resin production. Navigate to the tech tree and scroll down to the ‘Supplies’ section. Here, you’ll find the Grinding Table. Unlock it and place it in your base. This table will serve as the cornerstone of your accelerated resin production.

To craft Resin, ensure you have the Resin recipe unlocked, which you should have if you’re after Polymer. The recipe can be in the Basic tree after the Pyrolyzer. Now, all you need to do is get tons of wood and interact with the Grinding Table, place the wood in its inventory, and it’ll automatically convert it to Resin.

How to Craft the Grinding Table in The Front

To craft the Grinding Table in The Front, you need the following materials:

  • 25 Stone
  • 10 Wood
  • 2 Iron Ingots
  • 2 Bone

I recommend you get the Grinding Table early in The Front, as it will save you a lot of time grinding for Resin, and it’s vital for your survival. But always watch out for your wood supply. Even though you’re not after Resin from trees, you still need a lot of wood, so always remember to chop those trees!

Now you can use the Resin to craft Polymer (if you have Crude Oil as well,) which is the next stage in your base progress, as you can now start creating semi-decent weaponry!
