As an alternative to building statues to increase a room's value, you can use [[mechanism]]-based structures such as [[gear assembly|gear assemblies]] and [[lever]]s, which have a base value of 30, versus 25 for statues. An additional advantage is that these structures, unlike statues, do not block the passage of dwarves. And levers are useful for, you know, controlling stuff. Be careful exactly what you control, though. You wouldn't want to go to the trouble of boosting up the value of the Duke's room just for him to be mesmerized by his diamond-encrusted masterwork lever, pull it, and blunder into some sort of [[unfortunate accident]], now would you? | As an alternative to building statues to increase a room's value, you can use [[mechanism]]-based structures such as [[gear assembly|gear assemblies]] and [[lever]]s, which have a base value of 30, versus 25 for statues.

− | To build high-quality levers and gear assemblies, you will need to make high-quality mechanisms, which requires a [[mechanic]] instead of a [[mason]]. By using the techniques detailed in ore-based statues, above, you can make very high-value mechanisms out of ore.
