This is an easy one to get out of the way at the start of the game.
Step 1) Craft a Hunting Shelter using Sticks, Logs & Rocks.
Step 2) Hit the Hunting Shelter with your axe, I did it twice (Make sure building damage is enabled)
Step 3) Build a Repair Tool (Sticks, Rock, Cloth and Tree Sap)
Step 4) Equip Repair Tool and use on damaged hunting shelter.
