In Grounded, the Sunken Bone item can be used as a Tier 2 crafting item once you find it to make powerful Melee weapons like the Rusty Spear, Bone Dagger, Bone Trident, and other tools. The Koi Scale Armor set also uses this material, which includes the Bubble Helmet. Those looking to have more Oxygen while submerged underwater will want the Sunken Bone resource to make these practical items.
As its name implies, the Sunken Bone is found in the dark and treacherous underwater biome known as the Pond Depths. This area is located deep beneath the Koi Pond's surface on the northern side of the Yard map. To explore the Pond Depths in Grounded, you must either make quick trips from the abyss to the surface or acquire some gear enabling you to hold your breath longer underwater.

Sprigs are common sprout-like plants growing everywhere around the Yard, so you shouldn't have a hard time finding them as you try to build an Acorn Shovel. On the other hand, Acorn Shells are found on fallen Acorns, which can be found often near the huge tree in the Oak Hill biome in Grounded. You'll want to collect more than one Shell since Crude Rope requires an item called a Grinder to be produced.
Crude Rope is a refined crafting material in Grounded, making it something you can't find as a natural resource like Acorn Shells or Sprigs. Grinders can make Crude Rope, but only if you have these parts to build the structure:
