Sure, making furniture from raw materials is good and all, but I prefer to do a little recycling. I gots this idea for a table made out of some repurposed items from the sewers. If you help me gather a few more supplies, I'll let you have one... free of charge?
Just bring me 20 small Sewer Pipes, and 10 Manhole Covers. That should be enough to make a handful of these tables. Pugcrawlers have an affinity towards Manhole Covers, while Slugrats have been known to drop a Sewer Pipe or two... weird huh?
More Slugrats and Pugcrawlers will appear in the Steamport Sewers during the quest. The temporary ones will respawn when you leave the room and come back without having to leave the map entirely. Best place to do this is probably the following: head to the Sewer Entrance Checkpoint, then go right, lower left. Three slugrats at the beginning of this room that respawn every time you enter and exit . Then head left one more time to kill a pugcrawler at the beginning of the room that respawns with each entrance .
