=== Artifact Construction Complex ===
  
An alternative solution is to build an '''Artifact Construction Complex''', containing every mood-able workshop and small stockpiles of the most precious types of ore, metal bars, gems, etc. When not in use, the ACC should be either locked, or everything in it forbidden (including workshops). Forbidding is better, because in this case these workshops won't receive orders from your [[manager]]. You can also deal with it by filling the workshops' job queues with 10 suspended jobs. Once the dwarf is struck by the mood, the ACC is opened, and all claimable workshops not belonging to the ACC are forbidden. This way, the normal operation of the workshops is disrupted only for the time needed for the moody dwarf to claim a workshop, instead of all artifact construction time in the first method. Furthermore, only one type of workshop is nonoperational, instead of all workshops that use forbidden materials.

When the very worst happens and your triple-[[legendary]] dwarf fails their strange [[mood]] and goes on [[Fun|a rampage, destroying the faces of all the pets and dwarves around them]], it's good to be prepared. The easiest form of protection is a simple door on the room the workshop is in, locked for the few months it takes for them to die of [[thirst]]. You can spend the time waiting for them to die by getting their [[coffin]] made and situated. Putting [[trap|cage and weapon traps]] around the common [[stair]]s is always a good idea, for both tantrummers and possible [[Fun#Ambush|invasions]].
