Wood cutter is the skill associated with the wood cutting labor. Wood cutters cut down trees to create wood logs. A wood cutter also requires an available axe. The quality or material of the axe appears to have no effect on any aspect of wood cutting - a no-quality copper axe is the same as a masterwork steel, adamantine or even wooden training axe. (The same is not true for axes in combat.) Unfortunately, it is not currently possible to assign woodcutters the same axe to use in the military as to use in civilian labour.^Bug:1451

Increased skill makes cutting down trees faster.

To designate trees to be cut, you designate trees for logging using the keys d-t, then define a rectangle using the enter key. Any trees within the rectangle will then be cut down. You can also use the mouse to select trees to be cut down.

Any immigrant that arrives with the wood cutting labor enabled will be carrying an axe.
