First, place an extractor on the iron node, and configure it's <code>MaterialToExtract</code> property (set it to "Iron"). Once you are done with this, you will want to either attach a bin directly to the extractor, or use chutes to transport the resources to some location (recommended). Later in the game, you will be able to use transporters instead of chutes. |

Now that storage is set up, you will have to power the extractor. Craft some wires (you may need to mine some copper, 3-4 should be enough), and attach one to your power source. You will now need to connect your power source and the extractor using said wires, use the hammer tool to resize them, and to add more wires by dragging them onto the previous one. |
