Softwood Hewn Log

A log hewn and shaped to be a building material. Hewing logs at a workbench will grant no experience.

Notes

Softwood Hewn Log is a tier-2 building block crafted at a workbench from logs, offering a solid, wall-capable material for construction. It can also be burned as fuel (value 4000) and is used in many recipes including crafting stations and furniture. Note that hewing logs at a workbench does not grant experience, so its primary value is as a structural material and fuel source.
