📋 About This Mod
Ever wonder why your character can effortlessly carry an entire shack, but can't seem to budge power armor? Now PA frames can be picked up and moved like any other settlement object.

This mod works by adding dummy crafting recipes for each of the 48 power armor frame "furniture objects" in the game. Only with these recipes in place does the workshop mode recognize PA frames as valid editable objects. Unfortunately this also means that a careless player can scrap or store frames. The default version of the mod includes a category for PA frames - if you accidentally store a frame you can scroll right until you find the right dummy recipe to place it. This comes at the cost of incompatibility with other mods which add categories to the base game, including the official Wasteland Workshop DLC, so I've also included a version which lacks this safeguard.
This Fallout 4 mod lets you pick up and move power armor frames through the workshop crafting menu, making it easier to relocate your suits. It's a simple utility for settlement builders who want to organize their armor displays. With nearly 5,000 endorsements, it's a proven quality-of-life improvement.
