It currently does not form the actual material of tree tiles, which are composed of generic [[plant]] material, but is instead dropped from trees as '''logs''' [[File:wooden_log_sprite.png|20px]] / {{Tile|▬|6:0}}, the raw [[item]] form of wood, when they are cut down. For the most part, different kinds of wood are identical, except for differences in [[density]] and [[color]]. It is generally weaker and more lightweight than other heavy-duty materials, such as [[stone]] or [[metal]]. All wood is flammable, with an ignition point of {{ct|10508}}. Only [[nether-cap]] wood is [[magma-safe]], due to its fixed temperature. The harvesting and use of wood to make products is known as the [[wood industry]]. |

| − | [[ | + | Wood is obtained by [[designation|{{Key|d}}esignating {{Key|t}}rees]] to be chopped down. Any [[dwarf]] with the [[wood cutting]] [[labor]] enabled and access to a [[battle axe]] will cut down a tree, producing a variable number of 'logs' dependent upon the tree's size and composition. In general, bigger trees yield more logs than smaller ones, though relevant [[plant token]]s can have a significant impact on the total. |

Trees start their lives as saplings. Saplings cannot be cut down until they mature into full-grown trees, which can take several years. Creatures frequently moving on a tile with a sapling will eventually kill the sapling, leaving you with a dead sapling occupying the square for a time before it disappears and another plant starts growing. | Trees start their lives as saplings.
