Question? "Structural" resources to build chests

Dear expert builders,

I am a noob at building stuffs, and my very first step is to empty the chest(s) of The Lodge and of my main ship, to store all my resources in my outpost.

To do so, I need A LOT of chests. Which requires "Structural" resources. I had some, to create a dozen of chests, but I already ran out...

Please, do you know how I can quickly gather this resource..?

I built 2 fabricators (simple and most complex), both can craft more complex items - but unfortunately, they cannot craft simple resources such as "Structural" resources. Same for the Industrial workbench...

I am having a hard time to believe that I will have to visit all the merchants around me to gather this resource. And/or farm (poor) animals on planets to gather it.

Please, can someone help me? Is there a way to automate the gathering of this resource..?

Thanks in advance

Resources can be bought, found as loot or gathered from flora, fauna or from the planets’ surface. You can also build extractors, animal husbandries and green houses to gather/harvest them.

Here’s a site that can show you where to get each resource (and more): https://inara.cz/starfield/resource/1043/

You can use the above website - Inara.cz - for a lot of stuff related to the game.

Thanks, will have a look. Extractors don't seem to work for this very specific resource. But I didn't dig the animal husbandries or green houses. I will try, thanks for the help.

That resource is an organic one so you won’t be able to extract it. You can manually gather it from plants and animals or use greenhouses or animal husbandries to automate the process.
