Sons of the Forest Blueprint Map
Blueprints unlock the island's best buildables — traps, the teleporter, the attract/repel shrines, the Item Plating Machine and the Gold Armor Plater, and novelty furniture — and the 3D printers let you print gear like arrows and masks. The map below pins every blueprint and 3D printer; click a marker for a location screenshot or a teleport command.
Most blueprints lie below the ground surface, so pair this map with the cave and bunker routes. The Item Plating Machine and the Gold Armor Plater are the highest-value finds — they coat weapons and armor in Solafite — while the 3D printers are worth marking early since you'll return to them to print consumables. Every blueprint's in-game name, what it builds, its cost where the wiki states one and its exact place are listed below the map.
Every blueprint, what it builds and where it is
The game's files hold 16 blueprint pickups. 12 of them lie more than 8 m below the ground surface; the rest are at or near it. Names are the game's own. The wiki lists a full build cost for 3 of them; where no source states a cost, the card says so rather than guess.

Wiki calls it Solafite Generator
Once switched on with the Artifact it slowly makes Solafite Ore — and keeps calling mutants and cannibals while it runs. wiki
Wiki calls it Armor Plater · Solafite Armor Upgrader
Coats Bone Armor or the Ancient Armor in Solafite, using 12 Solafite Ore per run. The Solafite-coated Ancient Armor is what opens the way into the Hell Cave. wiki
Coats a weapon in Solafite: hang it on the rack, load 6 Solafite Ore and fend off the mutants it draws while it works. Melee weapons gain about 30% damage; ranged ones gain none. wiki
A teleport pad. With the Artifact in teleport mode you jump to the active pad from anywhere, caves and bunkers included; only one pad is active at a time and each jump costs 1/16 of the Artifact's charge. wiki

Where do you find blueprints in Sons of the Forest?▾
Blueprints are scattered across the island, most of them inside caves and bunkers. The map above pins all of them — traps, the teleporter, shrines, plating machines and furniture — plus the 3D printer stations.
Where are the 3D printers in Sons of the Forest?▾
There are several 3D printer stations on the map (filter to Blueprints above to see them). You use them to print items like arrows, masks and flasks from printer resin — mark them so you can return.
What are the best blueprints to grab first?▾
The Item Plating Machine and the Gold Armor Plater are the standouts — they let you upgrade weapons and armor. After that, the Teleporter and the trap blueprints are the most useful for a defended base.
