v0.34:Large pot

Pots are containers that function much like barrels, but can be made from other materials. They can be made from ceramic at a kiln, glass at a glass furnace, stone by a stone crafter at a craftsdwarf's workshop, wood at a craftsdwarf's workshop, or metal at a metalsmith's forge. Pots made from stone, stoneware, glass, wood, porcelain, metal, or glazed earthenware are water-tight and can be used to store liquids, and even for brewing. Unglazed earthenware can only be used for storing dry items. Metal pots are made using the metalcrafting skill, as opposed to metal barrels, which use the blacksmithing skill. Pots are stored in the Large Pots/Food Storage section of the Furniture stockpile. Pots are visible on the haul-for-trade screen under Tools section. Workshops that require a barrel for construction cannot use a pot instead.
Large pots are currently 2.5 times as heavy as barrels made from the same material, and they have double the capacity.
