Three can also be made out of [[wood]] (by a [[carpenter]]), as noted below, which can be useful in getting some heavy weapons traps set up before you have a steady [[smelting]] operation going, or if you are short on metal. Each trap component takes one unit of the material that you are using (e.g. Each menacing iron spike will take one [[bar]] of [[iron]]). Note that although it is not possible to make giant axe blades or serrated disks out of wood, wooden ones can sometimes be bought from the embark screen. This is presumably a bug. |
Trap weapons also provide the highest return of any weapon for [[melt]]ing, 120%–150%, compared to 90%–120% for conventional weapons, which can be [[exploit]]ed for generating metal and training [[weaponsmith]]s. Trap components are a separate sub-section of a [[forge]] menu (where metal [[mechanisms]] can also be found), but found within the menus for the various glass types in the [[glass furnace]], or in the main menu of the [[carpenter's workshop]]. | Trap weapons also provide the highest return of any weapon for [[melt]]ing, 120%–150%, compared to 90%–120% for conventional weapons, which can be [[exploit]]ed for generating metal and training [[weaponsmith]]s.
