== Furniture Weight ==
I was looking into what furniture type to train my masons.  I wanted to use the lightest thing so that I could dump (compact) or trade quicker.

Using Slate as my stone:

* mechanisms 267 (just a note, mechanisms aren't made in a mason's shop don't train masonry, incase you might think otherwise. [[User:N9103|Edward]] 23:09, 8 May 2009 (UTC))

== Things I've Learned Melting Ice ==
My current local map is entirely on a haunted glacier biome with no aquifer, so I've learned about melting ice for water.
Some of this is contrary to what's on the Ice page and in talk.  When I am happy with this here, I'll move it there.

Things I've learned about ice:
* "Subterranean" is not enough to keep ice melted (although mined out subterranean seems to work)
* Ice on a rock floor 1 z-level above magma will melt
* Ice above/touching a warm tile will not melt
* Water above a "warm" tile touching a magma tile n/s/e/w/u/d will not freeze
* Ice a z-level below magma will melt

Very good, man. Good to know. I plan on doing my next fortress on one of those.  New research is always appreciated.--[[User:Zchris13|Zchris13]] 18:56, 25 May 2009 (UTC)<br>P.S. I know nothing about this
