Before you can craft the Recycler, you will need to track down the blueprint. This can be found on the top floor of the Radio Tower location, which can be navigated to once you have crafted the Receiver. After acquiring the blueprint, you will need six Plastic, four Metal Ingot, two Bolts, two Hinges, and one Circuit Board to build it.
