In-Game Text

"Afterwards he lifteth the Beam upon Tressels by the help of a Pully, fasteneth it with Cramp-irons and marketh it out with a Line. Then he frameth the Walls together, and fasteneth the great Pieces with Pins."

– John Amos Comenius, Orbis Sensualium Pictus, The Visible World in Pictures, 1658

The completion of certain projects of the higher order also require more cultured feats of woodworking. Joinery & Finish allows you to build a Carpenter's Bench and an Oiling Trough, to lay down Timber Piles for drying, and to properly plane and level boards.

How to Make Planed and Oiled Boards

  1. Using the Plane Board icon.png Plane Board action and a Carpenter's Bench icon.png Carpenter's Bench plane your Dry Board icon.png Dry Boards. If successful you will create a Planed Board icon.png Planed Board. If unsuccessful you will receive 2x Wood Choppings icon.png Wood Choppings instead. Your success rate can be increased by your Woodworking Artifice Bonus. When creating Planned Boards there is a chance to receive High Notes of Amber Resin icon.png High Notes of Amber Resin. This chance is also increased by your Woodworking Artifice Bonus.
  2. Select a Vessel of at least 2x Liters of Vegetable Oil icon.png Vegetable Oil and right-click it onto an Oiling Trough icon.png Oiling Trough.
  3. Right-click on your Oiling Trough to open it and place up to 8 Planed Boards inside.
  4. In about 2 days the Planed Boards will become either Oiled Board icon.png Oiled Boards or Warped Board icon.png Warped Boards at about a 50/50 chance. Each Board will consume 2x Liters of Vegetable Oil. Warped Boards can be re-planed back into Planed Boards to try again.
