Cartons are rare finds in tool stores, sheds, closets and warehouses. Pack 12 Boxes in Carton also makes one from twelve boxes. The carton counts as survival gear and holds a great deal of metal. The Carpenter is the best occupation for materials. It starts with the most Carpentry skill. For Welding, the Welder starts strongest.
