Repairing the Red Windmill is one of the first activities you should complete on Day 6 of your playthrough. On the 6th of Spring, Issac knocks on your door and asks for windmill repair items. At this point in the game, you have all the necessary tools to gather what Issac needs. Here are the required items:

  • 10x Wood
  • 10x Stone

You can chop down trees and logs for wood and break rocks using the hatchet for stone. Once you have the necessary items, talk to Issac and unlock the Red Windmill. Interact with the windmill to explore all the recipes for various items, including improved tools. The Red Windmill contains upgrade recipes up to Silver quality.
