💡 Beginner Tips
- Since the mod is craftable, check the tanning rack or forge for new recipes—likely under leather or steel categories.
- If you use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, install via the manager to keep your load order clean.
- Make sure your body mod (UNP, UNPB, or CBBE) is installed first, as this mod builds on those frameworks.
