Sawmill must be constructed inside a Windmill or a Watermill. It is used to produce Boards from logs at significantly faster rate than using a Bone Saw or a Metal Saw.

Right click with the log on the machine to add it to it's storage. The machine will slowly cut the logs in its storage into boards, which can be collected via either shift right clicking on it or with a Wheelbarrow which if done so could hold up to the sawmills storage limit of 100 boards. The sawmill can hold 18 logs and 100 boards

Quality

• ${_{q}Board}={\sqrt {_{q}SawMill*_{q}Wood}}$ and is softcapped by Carpentry of character that put log into the sawmill.
• ${_{q}Sawmill}={\frac {{_{q}HardMetal*5+_{q}AnyMetal}+{_{q}Block+_{q}Board}+_{q}Rope+_{q}BoneGlue}{10}}$

Notes

• Loftar>"The blade metal already does weigh more heavily toward the final quality than the rest of the components, though." ref] - probably meant that hard metal counts as a blade.

Game Development

• Buzzcut Board (2024-02-11)◎ >"Added "Sawmill", a mechanically powered machine (i.e. built in wind- or watermills) which automatically transforms logs into boards at a rate of exchange slightly better than that provided by a metal saw."

• Buzzcut Board (2024-02-11)◎ >"Added some new animation mechanics to support the Sawmill. (The sawmill will crash clients that have not merged these changes.)"
