📋 About This Mod
This mod makes all vanilla weapons craftable at the Industrial Workbench.
Known Issue:
There is some lag when first entering the bench, and after crafting something, from adding all that stuff (and I wouldn't be surprised if there is some unneeded code lookup slowing things down like there was on switching weapons at launch). Bethesda really should not have gotten rid of the categories system when opening a crafting bench. That's an obvious fuckup on their part. They really should have seen people wanting to craft more things coming.

As all .esm plugins made with xEdit, this mod requires Plugins.txt Enabler.
