Well, I'm grinding my way up to master architect at the moment, but the ore is being wasted making statues because they just don't sell. I was wondering if I could grind structural modules to use them in making mineral mining installations so I don't waste all that ore, and then use those modules in a schematic, or do all serial numbers have to be the same on everything? Please help!!!

I don't think the serial numbers should matter all that much, but i'd make a few mineral mining installations if you can, and then use all those structural mods to make wall mods. 10 structure mods are needed for 1 wall mod. 2200 ore and 800 metal for all of it.
yeilds 6000 xp as well. apparently i've heardyou can sell the wall mods fairly easily as welll, i have a couple hundred of them scattered about, but never tried selling them yet, because i'm spending all my dough on harvs and ore rather than vendors. (kinda dumb on my part because vendors are so cheap.

Well erm... does that mean I can grind structural modules for a bit and use them in a schematic later or would I have to use a factory to make identical modules?

in reply to your question yes their are two easy ways to grind the architect prof.. one is statues the other is to make structural modules then walls either are ok but make sure you keep either of them no matter which way you choose as they are so expensive to craft. and i would add that if you intend making furniture mainly grind statues but if you intend making harvs,factorys,houses etc make walls..

If youre having trouble selling statues Id suggest making walls. Post on your servers trade board they are available and maybe even send a few tells / emails to some of the bigger architects on your server.

Just stick to making walls. You can surely find an architect that will buy them for 8K each. It may take a little bit of looking.

Somebody tell me how to edit a post, please? 
Walls and structure modules never have to be identical for any schematics. You can mix and match as you please for any structure that requires them.

The question has been answered several times.
No.
Identical componentsmean the same serial number. Similarcomponentsdo not. And this translates to any schematic for any profession.

best advice: make walls, then make factories!
they will sell for 39k+ and give you great xp once you assemble all the components. my personal fav was making generator turbines. they didn't use lots of ore(though required a bit of reactive gas, copper, and aluminum), and are required for factories, which will get you lots of money. wish ya luck man
oh and(as other people have already said) if in the crafting phase it says "similer" you DO NOT need factory items, if it says "Identical" you DO need factory parts.

Haven't been able to get on the forums for a bit! I meant if I used those wall modules in a manufacturing schematic in a, for example, heavy mineral extractor, would all the serials have to be the same? ie would the walls have to be produced from a factory?
