How to get Cord in LEGO Fortnite

At the beginning of your adventure in LEGO Fortnite, very few crafting materials will be more important than cord, as you must use it to craft the Fishing Rod, the Knight Shield, and of course, the always handy Recurve Crossbow.

But did you know it’s possible to get the material minutes after creating your world? Here’s how to get cord in LEGO Fortnite, as well as the best way to farm it.

How to get and farm cord in LEGO Fortnite

You can get cord in LEGO Fortnite by defeating NPCs carrying the material, taking it from treasure chests, or crafting it with the Spinning Wheel. Of the three, the latter is by far the best method for those looking to farm, as you will only need five Vines to craft each cord. You can get vines in LEGO Fortnite by harvesting bushes and crops.

How to get the Spinning Wheel

You will unlock the recipe for the Spinning Wheel in LEGO Fortnite by building your first Crafting Bench and a Lumber Mill. Once you do that, you will be able to craft the workstation by opening the Build Menu, selecting it, and then using the materials below:

• 8x Planks
• 5x Wooden Rods
• 5x Wood Logs
• 5x Wolf Claws

While the necessary wood logs and Wolf Claws can be acquired by harvesting and killing wild wolves respectively, you will be able to get the planks and wooden rods by using your Lumber Mill.
