A fairly easy way to hollow out a cistern without elaborate designing is simply marking an area of [[ramps]] one level below where you are going to have the top of the cistern. The ground on the current level will be cleared off ( turned into down ramps ) and the same happens to the lower level when you assign a new ramp layer under that. And don't worry; when you assign ramps under ramps, the ramps on top will be cleared out safely.<br />Easy underground tank hollowing. Although you'll need stairs to climb for the miners sooner or later...

== difference between reservoir and cistern? ==
 
 
-----------
 
 
Won't water that's in a constructed, "inside / light / above ground" tile freeze in winter? I thought only water in "dark/subterranean" tiles wouldn't freeze. If so, there's a signficant difference between cisterns and reservoirs -- reservoirs work, cisterns don't! [[User:Calenth|Calenth]] 20:57, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
