A repair bench brings the Advent Calendar back from broken for 20 Wood and 4 Cloth.
A repair bench charges 20% of the item’s recipe to fix a broken item, less when it is only worn.
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.
What the Advent Calendar gives back in each recycler
| Recycler | Efficiency | You get |

| Red recycler | 75% | 15  Cloth, 75  Wood |
| Green recycler (powered) | 60% | 12 Cloth, 60 Wood |
| Green recycler | 50% | 10 Cloth, 50 Wood |
| Yellow recycler | 40% | 8 Cloth, 40 Wood |

A recycler takes one at a time.

In Rust, Advent Calendar is a deployable in the Deployables category (item ID #-2027793839, console shortname xmas.advent). In active play, it follows standard server rules for deployable gear across procedural maps. Inventory storage holds a single unit per slot, and uncollected ground drops despawn after 5 minutes.

In Rust, Advent Calendar has no player crafting recipe; acquisition relies on map collection, smelting, or vendor trades read from the Rust game files. Shredding a spare copy at a green recycler recovers base materials at fifty percent yield (vs forty percent at safe-zone yellow units). Damaged copies repair at a Repair Bench for a fraction of recipe cost.
When comparing Advent Calendar against related deployables in Rust, prioritize farming its highest-probability monument containers or recycling surplus components at an unpowered radtown green recycler (fifty percent base yield, versus forty percent at safe-zone yellow units) because this item cannot be crafted at a player workbench.

A repair bench fixes the Advent Calendar from broken for 20 Wood and 4 Cloth, and a hammer takes it from broken to full in four swings for 49 Wood and 11 Cloth in Rust. Bench repairs require no blueprint and reduce maximum condition by 20% across a full durability bar.
Dropped on the ground in Rust, the Advent Calendar despawns after 5 minutes by default. Picking it back up into a player inventory or storing it inside a base container immediately resets that ground despawn timer, which the server scales by item rarity tier.
The Advent Calendar has 32-bit signed item ID -2027793839 and shortname xmas.advent in Rust. Server plugins, custom loot tables, Vending Machine listings, and automated Industrial Conveyor filter strings reference these two identifiers under the Deployables category (stack limit 1 unit per slot).
Server administrators in Rust spawn the Advent Calendar in the F1 developer console by typing inventory.give xmas.advent 1 or inventory.giveid -2027793839 1 for a single unit. Both console spawn commands work only on dedicated or local worlds where your Steam account holds administrator or moderator privileges.
