“A mill that can be used to grind materials to a fine powder. This mill only works when there is a force generator nearby. Either windmill sails or a partially submerged water wheel counts as a generator. The force generator doesn't have to be connected to the mill; it can be placed freely nearby.”

What it costs
The part you craft first: Improved Millstone
The Mill's build recipe takes a crafted part as well as materials. Each is its own recipe, with its own cost and station.
What powers the Mill
The game's own text above says it: the Mill only works with a force generator nearby — windmill sails or a partly submerged water wheel, placed freely, no connection needed. These are the 3 generators in the 1.0 recipe file.
