Costs come from the wiki's "Current Craftable Items" tables; tier 1 comes from its blueprint tab. Item names stay in English as in the game. Everything craftable at tier 5 together is 510 wood, 452 scrap, 6 Cultist Gem, 5 Gem of the Forest.
Questions
Which materials does the bench use?
Wood and scrap for every tier. Tier 4 adds 2 Cultist Gems and tier 5 adds 1 Gem of the Forest. Scrap comes from the Grinder: a material with 1 to 4 bolt symbols gives 1, 3, 5, 8 scrap.
Why do your totals differ from the wiki trivia line?
The wiki's trivia says buying everything once needs 423 wood and 419 scrap. Adding up its current item tables gives 510 wood and 452 scrap, so the trivia line predates later price changes. The gem totals match (6 Cultist Gems, 5 Gem of the Forest).
