Rust Craft Nailgun Nails achievement: craft the item with 8 Metal Fragments using the checked recipe. The listed batch produces 5. Single source: the developer item page supplies this recipe/setup; independent current achievement-trigger confirmation remains open.
Check the recipe, then complete the craft
| Ingredient | Checked quantity |
|---|---|
| Metal Fragments | 8 |
Workbench requirement in the checked item data: None. Listed output: 5. These are dated wiki values, not a guaranteed modded-server recipe.
Inspect the displayed ingredients and blueprint access, begin the craft, then let it finish and check the platform result. The checked recipe produces five Nailgun Nails. It is a different craft from making the Nailgun itself; firing ammunition is not stated in this crafting requirement.
If the menu differs, record the edition, server and version before spending more. Hizzle recommends checking the first intended craft instead of queuing repeated copies as an unproven fix.
Evidence and planning limits
Hizzle's provisional difficulty is 2/10, an editorial estimate from the setup. Exact completion time, server eligibility, counter resets, guest credit and every missable exception remain UNSURE. This basic route has no established paid-DLC requirement. Console Edition has a different catalogue; UNSURE: console trigger parity. Current patch review does not prove an unlock works on every server. Hizzle has not tested this in-game.
