Help on blueprints:

Blueprint chips are a storage medium in which the assembly instructions for a particular item are held, a colonist can load a blueprint chip onto a crafting tool by using LOAD ON to consume the chip and acquire the means to produce the detailed item on that crafting tool.
Blueprints uploaded onto a tool are not necessarily permenantly locked onto that tool; blank blueprint chips can be crafted using an electronics processing workstation and used with DOWNLOAD WITH to remove the blueprint from the tool and return it to a blueprint chip.
Blueprint chips almost always hold assembly instructions for items which are unavailable for production on standard tools, making them invaluable for crafty colonists.
