A wood cutter cuts down trees to create wood logs.
To employ a wood cutter, give him the wood cutting labor, and designate some trees for logging using the keys d-t. An axe is needed to perform this job.
This skill increases rapidly. With an ample supply of trees, a dedicated wood cutter who does not do his own wood hauling can reach legendary status in well under a year, and can singlehandedly meet the lumber needs of most types of fortresses. A single dwarf can also function well as a dedicated wood cutter and plant gatherer, provided that this dwarf is not your sole food provider. It may be worthwhile to give him some points in axedwarf, making him a decent soldier if necessary.
A dwarf cannot have both the Mining and Wood Cutting labors enabled, as doing so would require them to dual-wield an axe and a pick. Setting dwarves which must work outside to Wood Cutting can be a good idea, as it means they will carry axes with them at all times-though this also means that they will usually interrupt anything they're doing to go chop trees.
