Wooden Plank
A Wooden Plank is a Board finished at the Woodworking Workbench I: one Board makes one plank. Along with Bronze Details it is what the opening asks for most. The town stalls are the only sellers, so early on every plank you use, you make.
The story takes 5 for Jack’s boat, and each Melted Fat you turn into Oiled Planks for the barricades takes 4. Most workbenches after the first few cost planks as well: the Stonemason’s Workbench, Potter’s Wheel and Tool Rack take 2, the Hardening Bucket 4.
Later the blockage in the basement under your house takes 3 planks and 3 Bronze Details, and the broken power switch in the resurrection room takes 2 planks and one Bronze Detail.

Notes
- A plank needs Building mastery 2. Your rusty axe and pickaxe give exactly that, as long as both are on your hotbar.
- Planks are handed over, not shown. Jack keeps the 5 planks, so make them on top of what you need for your own workbenches.
- Herm buys planks from his second tier on but never sells them. Selling to him is a way to turn spare wood into money, not a shortcut for the boat.
- Studying a plank on the Study Table costs 5 Science and gives 15 red tech points.
