What does the machining table do?

I searched on the forums and in google but I haven't really found any information about it. The game says it disassembles and assembles machine components, but I'm not seeing that. I was able to disassemble a centipede, but as far as I can tell it just disappeared and nothing came of it; and I have no way to create a bill to assemble anything.

What am I missing, or is it just mostly placeholder at this point?

Transforms "dead" mechanoid into metal. A meager amount of metal.
Keep it unpowered as long as you don't need it. Place a bill to disassemble forever and turn the power off.

Thanks! So how do we make artificial limbs and stuff? And how is the machining table any different from the smelter, then?

Wex

The smelter transforms slag metal (the one from the drop pods) into usable metal; as for building bionics in vanilla game: you don't. Grab a mod for that.

You can only build peg legs in the game. Bionics you have to buy

You don't even have to build the peg legs. Just use a piece of wood :)

In fact, wood is the most versatile object in the game! You can build stuff with it, use it as a limb, or use it as a weapon.

But can you use your peg leg as a weapon?
I like how this game can result in quotes that would be quite unnerving when said in public, out of context. - Myself
