For me it’s the jam maker. The game has grown so much since the jam maker was introduced that it has almost no capacity to keep up with game demand. My second most useless is the sewing machine and third place goes to the jewelry maker. Fourth place is the hat maker. What are yours?
Candy maker is definitely my 5th place. Too long!
The jam maker certainly qualifies as the most frustrating. When you combine the length of time needed to produce one jar of jam with the number of jars required for boat crates, there's a real disconnect.
the sanctuary. :rolleyes:
lol, if you mean an actual machine, the hat maker. i haven't even bought it yet, and skipped it as i wanted the other machines more, especially since for some of the hats it requires feathers, which i rarely have an excess of. i buy the red cloche hats from paper (often at less than full price), and just send tom for the top hat and sun hat as the need arises. they are so rarely part of truck or town orders that it's rarely ever more than once a week. it will be the last machine i buy.
One word: Rose.
Sewing machine. I send Tom for blankets and pillows (who has enough feathers to make those?) and the other items are very easy to find in the paper or friends' shops.
Feathers and lobster production are really big jokes. Your sooo right about making blankets and pillows. Then some boat comes along wanting 16-20 feathers. Bye bye boat!
I have to agree with most of the previous posts (except for Rose- I love her. :heart: ) Jam takes WAY too long. I send Tom for feathers, and often for lobsters because I never have enough (lobster traps and duck traps take WAY to long, as well. It's a joke.) I like to make pillows and blankets, but I usually send Tom for those because I never have enough feathers (feather boats??? Are you kidding me???). Same with hats. So, I would say it's not the machines that are useless, it's the fact that there are never enough feathers to make anything. I can buy cloche hats in the DD because apparently everyone except for me makes them. Good god, people. Enough already! lol
Hat Maker.
I can buy Cloché Hats, the others are such a pain to make you just use Tom to top them up.
Sewing machine yes. I always have the jam maker running, so Im okay with that one.
It all comes down to very poor production timing. We need some new items with reasonable production times to use on under used machines. AND fix the feather and lobster production!
