Ultimate Stone Building Guide in Sons of the Forest

The biggest change with Sons of the Forest Update 6 is the new stone buildings. You can not only build walls, columns, and beams out of stone but also a cozy fireplace, and it won’t be surprising if they’ll be adding more in the later stages as well. With this, you can defend your base even more effectively against the mutants and build cool castles.

Where to gather stones

Sons of the Forest Stone

The stones for these walls can be found everywhere in the game world. It can be best seen near water areas. At best, you can send Kevin out to collect them. Then, as with the wooden wall, you can stack individual stones to build the walls.

What can be built

Stone Fireplace

Building a stone fireplace in Sons of the Forest is a pretty easy task. However, to do so, you must have collected stones first. You’re going to need 42 stones if you want to build a fireplace. Once you’ve collected the stones, open your Builder’s Book and go to the Utility option. You will find the stone fireplace option in this section. Select the fireplace option, and you will be asked to position it where you want to build the fireplace. The best thing about building a stone fireplace is that you can place it anywhere and make it face any side you choose.

Once your blueprint is ready, use the 42 stones that you have collected to build the fireplace. And just like this, you have built yourself a stone fireplace in Sons of the Forest. Now, unlike in its prequel, The Forest, you can put the fireplace to use in this game. Put a few logs and branches in the fireplace and light them up to start a fire. You can use this fire to cook yourself a meal or even sit by it to prevent the cold. With Sons of the Forest featuring a dynamic change of seasons, you can use the fireplace once winter arrives.

Stone Wall

Building a single stone wall in Sons of the Forest can be tedious, as you would need to place about 28 stones in total 4 stones wide and 7 stones tall. You can connect as many walls as you want with this one. As with the wooden wall, you can stack individual stones to build the walls.

Stone Beams

Building stone beams is quite easier than you’d expect, you just need to place 4 stones connecting to two columns. Just place two logs on the ground and add the stones in between the two logs. With this, you can create doors and archways.

Stone Columns
