How To Get Mechanical Parts Fast In 7 Days to Die
The easiest and quickest way to find mechanical parts in 7 Days to Die is by salvaging them from electrical and mechanical items using the wrench. You can use the wrench to harvest mechanical parts from the likes of air conditioners, broken-down vehicles, and various appliances. This is due to the wrench being a level 1 dissemble tool, and so will give you extra resources for doing so.
Making the wrench isn't too difficult, but you will need a forge to do so. You will need 18 forged iron, six mechanical parts, and three pieces of duct tape. But, here's the catch: you will either need to find the schematic to unlock the recipe for the wrench, or unlock it after attaining level 1 in salvage operations.
With a wrench, you will also unlock the ability to dismantle any of the vehicles that occupy the world. Doing this will give you a plethora of mechanical parts and parts from the vehicles themself, so be sure to do this.
If you haven't unlocked the wrench recipe yet, don't worry. There are a few other ways in which you can find mechanical parts. One of these ways is simply scavenging numerous houses, warehouses, and garages. Although they're not one of the most common resources in the game, you will still find them when you're out and about, so be sure to loot everywhere you possibly can.
