Head to the Grinder, found at the Campfire site. Drop items you find in the world (like rocks, logs, or trash) into it to generate Scrap and Wood. Little icons float above objects to show what they’ll break down into.

Once you’ve gathered enough, walk up to the Grinder and interact with it to access the crafting menu.

To unlock better gear, you’ll need to upgrade your Crafting Bench. Higher tiers unlock new recipes.
