The Carved Bucket of Concrete is a wooden Carved Bucket filled with wet concrete. It is a heavy building material for masonry work and for the larger fire stations.
Concrete holds together brick and stone. Brick walls, stone walls, door frames, window frames and a Tile Floor all draw on it. The same concrete also goes into every forge and furnace used for metalworking. Most of these builds belong to the Masonry skill.
The bucket is mixed by hand from a Carved Bucket, water and a Bag of Concrete Powder. One bucket covers about four uses before it runs dry. The Carpenter is the best occupation for materials. It starts with the most Carpentry skill. For Welding, the Welder starts strongest.
Uses
Masonry is the main use. A Brick Wall (Poor), a Brick Door Frame (Poor) and a Brick Window Frame (Poor) need Masonry 2. The good versions of the brick wall, door frame, window frame and Brick Fence (Good) need Masonry 5. A Stone Wall, Stone Door Frame and Stone Window Frame need Masonry 2. A Tile Floor uses concrete together with Ceramic Tile.
Metalworking stations need concrete too. The Primitive Forge, Simple Forge and Advanced Forge are built with it. So are the Primitive Furnace, Smelting Furnace and Blast Furnace. A Dome Kiln, a Stone Mill, a Stone Cabinet, a Simple Cooking Pit and a Cooking Pit also call for concrete.
The bucket has one more use as a study piece. The Research Craft option on it teaches Make Bucket Maul and Make Kettle Maul. Make Bucket Maul needs Maintenance 5, and Make Kettle Maul needs Maintenance 4.
How to Get Carved Bucket of Concrete
The recipe Mix Bucket of Concrete makes it. It takes one empty bucket, ten units of water poured from a container and one Bag of Concrete Powder. No station or skill is needed. When the bucket is a Carved Bucket, the result is a Carved Bucket of Concrete. A metal bucket gives a Bucket of Concrete instead.

Notes
- Once the concrete is used up, the empty Carved Bucket comes back for the next batch.
- A full bucket is very heavy, so mixing it close to the build site saves a long carry.
- A wooden Carved Bucket lets a settlement mix concrete without finding a metal bucket.
- Researching a full bucket teaches the two maul recipes before any concrete is spent.
