Unlocks After Building A House
In order to start the mission to build Nook's Cranny, you'll have to first build yourself a house! To do this, you'll have to pay off your first 5,000 Nook Miles loan!
Gather Lumber By Hitting Trees
Wood can be gathered by hitting trees with your Axe! It's entirely random which of the 3 types of wood will drop, so keep going until you've got all the mats! You can also gather wood by going on Mystery Island tours!
Gather Iron Nuggets By Hitting Rocks
Iron Nuggets can be obtained when hitting rocks. There are a limited number of rocks on your island, which means the amount of Nuggets you can get in one day is relatively low. You can also gather iron nuggets from rocks in mystery islands!
