Alright, strap on your Engineer hat! First, you need to download and install the SteamCMD tool. Next, you use SteamCMD to download the dedicated server files for TF2. Afterward, configure your server by editing the server.cfg file with all your desired settings. Finally, start your server using the launch command. For full details, check out Valve's official guide [here](https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SteamCMD). Have fun building that fortress!

It's simple! Use SteamCMD to grab the server files, tweak the server.cfg, and boot it up. Check out Valve's wiki for specifics.

From my experience, the trickiest part is making sure your ports are forwarded correctly. If you mess up port forwarding, no one can join your server, and it becomes a very exclusive club of one!
