How to Upgrade Tools in LEGO Fortnite

Although you cannot upgrade your tools after crafting them in the game, you can craft upgraded tools in LEGO Fortnite by using a Crafting Bench of equal rarity. For example, upgrading your bench to the Uncommon rarity will allow you to craft all Uncommon tools/weapons once their crafting recipes are discovered. You can discover the recipes for all tools by getting at least one of their ingredients.

How to Upgrade Your Crafting Bench

You can upgrade your crafting bench to a higher rarity by interacting with it and then selecting Bench Upgrade before pressing either Square, X, or E to expend the necessary resources to do it. Once you do that, your character will start working on the bench and after a few seconds, the upgrade will happen.
