Resources are the foundation of crafting and weapon modification in Fallout 4.
Overview[]
Some resources are common, others are uncommon, an some can be rare. All resources (and items) are shared between workbenches and crafting stations within a settlement,[1] and can be shared between settlements by establishing a supply line using the Local Leader perk.[2] Unassigned settlers will automatically scavenge for the resources,[3] and scavenge more when their level of happiness is elevated.[4]

Unused component models[]
There exist unused component models for wood, rubber, concrete, and a generic metal. These resources were presumably the first implemented, and were eventually replaced with the currently existing system.
