| + | During normal play, it is unlikely to ever observe workshop clutter outside of the [[butcher's shop]] - even [[slab]]s and [[statue]]s, the largest finished goods, will only clutter a mason's workshop to the ''first'' level once there are 15 of them inside and waiting for storage. | ||

To remedy clutter, be sure to have enough stockpile space of the appropriate kind (using [[bin|bins]] will increase stockpile efficiency), and employ enough dwarves with the appropriate [[hauling]] jobs (food/furniture/item/refuse/etc.) to get rid of the junk. The dwarf working at the workshop could also have the relevant hauling job enabled, pausing from time to time to move around goods. In case of inexperienced cooks, order only one or two meals at a time, and check clutter before issuing new orders. An alternate clutter control method is to build new workshops, optionally destroying the old ones (from the {{k|q}} or {{k|t}} menu). | To remedy clutter, be sure to have enough stockpile space of the appropriate kind (using [[bin|bins]] will increase stockpile efficiency), and employ enough dwarves with the appropriate [[hauling]] jobs (food/furniture/item/refuse/etc.) to get rid of the junk.

There is one upside to clutter, depending on your viewpoint and playstyle. As a workshop's production is slowed, so is their consumption of raw materials and their output if there is little demand. If there is sudden spike of demand, the workshop is easily uncluttered and can work at full speed. The benefit of this is that tasks can be left in repeat mode with no supervision and will not produce much unwanted extras or consume more resources than needed. | There is one upside to clutter, depending on your viewpoint and playstyle.

If [[stockpile|stockpiles]] are used with this method, they must all be kept completely full, so that the workshop remains cluttered. Your stockpile will become a sort of buffer to compensate for large spikes in demand. The larger your booze stockpile is, the larger of a spike in demand it can compensate for when, say, a tantrum spiral erupts. | If [[stockpile|stockpiles]] are used with this method, they must all be kept completely full, so that the workshop remains cluttered.
