| As a starting point you will want to make will be a generator of some kind. This can be from another mod, or you can make a TechReborn <mcitem>techreborn:generator</mcitem>. The generator uses a solid fuel type to generate a small amount of power. You will need to get your self some cables to transfer the power between blocks. | As a starting point you will want to make a generator of some kind.

| Please note that if you're using generators from other mods then this can affect balance in gameplay. Some generators might use other energy types which may either be over or under powered. | Please note that if you're using generators from other mods then this can affect balance in gameplay.

| The first machines you might want to look into building are the <mcitem>techreborn:electric_furnace</mcitem> and the <mcitem>techreborn:grinder</mcitem>. If you place these next to the <mcitem>techreborn:generator</mcitem> you won't even have to worry about power distribution at first because the <mcitem>techreborn:generator</mcitem> automatically powers blocks which are directly next to it. | The first machines you might want to look into building are the <mcitem>techreborn:electric_furnace</mcitem> and the <mcitem>techreborn:grinder</mcitem>.

| The <mcitem>techreborn:electric_furnace</mcitem> will allow you to smelt much more items using the same resources. For example: 1 piece of coal will smelt 8 iron ore blocks in a regular furnace, 10 iron ore blocks in an iron furnace and 49 iron ore blocks in an <mcitem>techreborn:electric_furnace</mcitem> powered by a <mcitem>techreborn:generator</mcitem>. | The <mcitem>techreborn:electric_furnace</mcitem> will allow you to smelt much more items using the same amount of resources.

| The <mcitem>techreborn:grinder</mcitem> allows you to grind ores into {{:mods:techreborn:copper_dust.png?nolink&24|}} **[[items:dust|Dusts]]** which you can then smelt back into {{:mods:techreborn:copper_ingot.png?nolink&24|}} **[[items:ingot|Ingots]]**.

| Beware when breaking machines, as many of them require you to use a <mcitem>techreborn:wrench</mcitem> to get the original machine back. If you do not use a <mcitem>techreborn:wrench</mcitem> you may only get the <mcitem>techreborn:basic_machine_frame</mcitem> back that was used to craft the block. You have been warned! | |

| All of the machines can be configured to accept or output items to any side. This can be done by clicking on the "Configure slots" button in the gui of any machine. When this button is clicked all the slots that can be configured will be displayed in red. When you click on the slot you wish to configure you will be greeted with a popup GUI that allows you to change a wide range of things for that slot. | All of the machines can be configured to accept or output items to any side.

| Input slots have a setting to filter the input, this setting means that the slot will only accept items that have a valid recipe. This is really useful as it allows you to use one chest for input and output in some cases. | Input slots have a setting to filter the input, this setting means that the slot will only accept items that have a valid recipe.
