Place one of the bins up against the iron node using your [[hammer]] tool and resize it ('''6×6×6''' should be more than enough). |

Mine some more iron (place your cursor right above the bin so the iron falls into it). If any falls to the sides while mining, drag it onto the bin while holding <code>[CTRL]</code>, then give it a slight push. You'll need '''at least''' 18 more pieces of iron <small>('''Note''': this assumes you'll be crafting the minimal possible amounts of everything)</small>. If you can spare the time, getting a bit more than required can prove useful. |

You may notice that as time passes, the bin you attached to the extractor will begin to fill up. Once it is full, you'll have to '''manually''' detach it and attach a new one to the extractor. Although a better storage solution would be nice, and you can opt to later build it, this manual method should be enough for a starterbase. |

[[File:Storage system.png|center|thumb|949x949px|A basic centralized storage system. All of the bins are connected to a central chute and the resources are then separated using filters. This ensures the right bin is filled with the right resource, even if empty.]] |
