This article is about an older version of DF.

The glassmaking skill is required to make any of the Template:L, Template:L or Template:L goods at a Template:L.

Note that the "collect Template:L" order at the glass furnace requires the "Template:L" labor, not glassmaking. The "collect sand" order does however still block the glass furnance stopping glassmakers from working in it until it has been completed. So it is recommendable to create some glass furnances for the sole purpose of Repeating the collect sand order while others are used for actual glassmaking. Keep in mind that ordering glass goods through the Template:L will schedule jobs in your sand collection glass furnances, so you should avoid it when possible.

Glassmaking vs. Masonry

There is considerable overlap between items produced from Template:L at Template:Ls' Template:L, and items produced from glass at glass furnaces. Template:L is easier to get running and will clear excess stone from your fortress. Glass produces items produce higher base Template:L (unless you make your masons use flux or Template:L), and using a Template:L essentially makes objects from nothing.
