With siege weapons

What it takes to destroy the Metal Shop Front with one siege weapon alone, each paid in what its own recipe asks: metal and fuel for the ram, sulfur and the rest for a propane bomb.

Siege weaponNeededCosts
Battering Ram15 hits, 2 hammer swings on the head32 High Quality Metal, at least 7 Low Grade Fuel
Propane Explosive Bomb by catapult68,100 Charcoal, 5,400 Sulfur, 600 Metal Fragments, 90 Animal Fat, 60 Scrap, 30 Cloth
Propane Explosive Bomb placed by hand1013,500 Charcoal, 9,000 Sulfur, 1,000 Metal Fragments, 150 Animal Fat, 100 Scrap, 50 Cloth

A battering ram head is worn out after 9 hits, and one hammer swing on it costs 16 High Quality Metal and gives it 3 more. The ram strikes once every 4.5 seconds with its engine running, which burns at least 0.1 Low Grade Fuel a second.

Every count starts from full health, with the Timed Explosive Charge and the Satchel Charge stuck on the Metal Shop Front and Explosive 5.56 Rifle Ammo fired from an Assault Rifle.

A Satchel Charge fails to go off 20% of the time and a Beancan Grenade 15%, so carry spares.

Hammer, from broken to full
Hammer swings

Each swing charges the share of the cost for 50 health, rounded up to whole resources, and restores as much health as it paid for, which can be more than 50. Nothing can be repaired for 30 seconds after it takes damage.
