'''Wood cutter''' is the skill associated with the '''wood cutting''' [[labor]]. Wood cutters cut down [[tree]]s to create [[wood]] logs. A wood cutter also requires an available [[axe]].  The quality or material of the axe appears to have no effect on any aspect of wood cutting - a [[quality|no-quality]] [[copper]] axe is the same as a [[quality|masterwork]] [[steel]], [[adamantine]] or even wooden [[training weapon|training axe]]. (The same is not true for axes in [[weapon|combat]].) Unfortunately, it is not currently possible to assign woodcutters the same axe to use in the [[military]] as to use in civilian labour. {{ver|0.31.21}}

Increased skill makes cutting down trees faster.
 
  
 
To designate trees to be cut, you [[Designations|designate]] trees for logging using the keys {{key|d}}-{{key|t}}, then define a rectangle using the {{k|enter}} key. Any trees within the rectangle will then be cut down. You can also use the mouse to select trees to be cut down.

A dwarf doing woodcutting will tend to haul each pile of logs to a stockpile before going on to the next tree. Disabling wood hauling on woodcutters prevents this and lets them leave the logs where they are for your haulers to retrieve.
