How to Get Copper in FO76?

To get copper in Fallout 76, there are several ways that you can approach the problem. The first and likely easiest method is to scrap light bulbs.

You can scrap them and get some copper and glass. Again, old fuses are all over the place, and they’re a decent source of copper.

Lastly, we have the copper deposits. These location can give you the largest amounts of copper; way more than light bulbs and fuses, to be sure.
