AWESOME Sink

 Motor can be sunk into the AWESOME Sink to yield 1,520 points.

Tips

• In the early game, there are Motors scattered around some Crash Sites which can be fed into the AWESOME Sink for some quick Coupons.
• It may be convenient to set up an entire vertically integrated factory making Motors from base elements. Using default recipes, one Motor takes 31.5 Iron Ore, 8 Copper Ore and 9 Coal. Creation from scratch involves two Smelter, one Foundry, four Constructor and three Assembler recipes.
• Using the Iron Pipe and Iron Wire alternate recipes (optionally the Steel Rotor alt as well for a more streamlined production line), it is possible to completely automate Motor production using only Iron nodes, although the amount of Iron needed is somewhat large due to the poor (4:1) conversion ratio of Iron Ingots to Steel Pipes.
