− | + | Dwarfs with the [[glassmaking]] labor enabled can use a glass furnace to produce a wide array of objects. Almost all furniture can be made here ([[bed]]s, [[millstone]]s, [[quern]]s, and [[slab]]s are the exceptions), as can [[block]]s, [[trade good]]s, [[gem]]s (in the form of raw glass), and a few items which can ''only'' be made of glass: | |
*[[Vial]]s - These are necessary for acquiring certain [[extract]]s at a [[farmer's workshop]], and can also be used in place of [[flask]]s or [[waterskin]]s. | *[[Vial]]s - These are necessary for acquiring certain [[extract]]s at a [[farmer's workshop]], and can also be used in place of [[flask]]s or [[waterskin]]s. | ||

Glass furnaces are also needed to issue the "Collect Sand" order. Doing so requires an empty [[bag]], an Item Hauler, and a [[Activity zone|zone]] designated for sand collection. As the "Collect Sand" order will prevent other furnace tasks from being started until the sand is collected, it is often wise to build several additional glass furnaces, [[magma glass furnace|magma]] or otherwise, to use for the collection of sand. Not all maps will have a source of sand, but sand may be imported in small quantities. [[Caravan]]s can also bring raw glass [[gem]]s for trade, which can be particularly useful for dealing with [[strange mood]]s. | Glass furnaces are also needed to issue the "Collect Sand" order.

Once you designate a spot for your furnace to be built, a [[building designer]] will bring the material to the site and design the building before the actual [[mason]] (for stone and glass furnaces) or [[Metalsmith#Metalsmith_profession|metalworker]] (for metal furnaces) comes along and builds it. Strangely enough, [[charcoal]] and [[coke]] are valid mason's materials for building a glass furnace, since their ignition point is above the cutoff for fire safety. |

This value is determined by both the value of the material used in its construction, as well as the quality of both the architect's and builder's efforts. |
