Ah I see... it is there under "angel's components" category. It was just the find that would not show the alternate recipe.

Using Angel+Bob mod pack, I recently synced a game to a laptop that I *think* has the same mods, but for some reason the ability to make wooden board out of wood doesn't seem to exist.

There are two places in Factorio where I use search/find a lot: -- Blueprints -- Crafting In both cases, there is a hierarchy (blueprints have books, crafting has tabs). But CTRL-F or ma...
