Notes
Prior to version 1.4, the metalwork bench only had one level, having the appearance of what is now the level 2 metalwork bench. It could only craft the metal blocks, safes, iron doors, and iron trapdoors.
In version 1.4, level 2 was added, moving safes, iron doors/trapdoors, and steel/gold blocks into level 2. Tin buckets and magnets were added to level 1. Iron pots, display cabinets, steel lanterns, copper boilers, copper wires, electric motors, steam engines, and silicon wafers were added to level 2.
In version 1.5, the iron pot and steel lanterns was moved from level 2 to level 1. Steel downlights, steel uplights, copper columns/stairs, tin columns/stairs, bronze columns/stairs, iron columns/stairs, steel columns/stairs, gold columns/stairs, electric elevator motor, and elevator shafts were introduced as well.
Version 1.7 added the cage.
