☺ Mechanics are dwarves with a high level of skill in the mechanics profession. In the default game configuration they are represented by a red dwarf symbol. A dwarf with the mechanics skill enabled is capable of constructing mechanic's workshops, mechanisms and all other buildings that require mechanisms such as levers, gears, traps, and menacing spikes. They are also responsible for linking up levers or pressure plates to objects such as bridges, floodgates and other contraptions.
A dwarf will gain mechanics skill by building mechanisms in the workshop or by building and linking traps together. A dwarf with a high skill in mechanics will be able to construct mechanisms and link up objects faster than a novice.
