In my experience I find that having two high fences is generally best because it both keeps animals from jumping over the fences during winter when snow builds up, but it also means that bowtorn have a much harder time of shooting you when you walk outside, assuming your base isn't beneath some cliffs (two high fences wouldn't help you then). Personally I find that having a base fence of stone wall with a wooden fence on top of it (especially the rough fences) looks really nice, and makes for a very cozy vibe when inside them. As can be seen in this build:

I had no idea that lunar events are in the game!
Valsalan replied to ShootEmUpDown's topic in Videos, Art or Screenshots
Yeah, they really are something to see. Especially since they happen naturally and so can be easily missed by being under ground, having a cloudy sky, or just sleeping through it. Really adds to the magic of the game. -
Not at the moment. But they have teased some fishing stuff soon™. So maybe we will get it and maybe not. But as it stands now, no.

For me it's what I can get. First year is always berries, I try and get bushes of the five major types (Cranberry, Blueberry, Red/Black/White Currants). As well as cuttings of whatever fruit trees I can find planted near my base. In practice I find I always get pear trees and cherries, but then have to struggle to get apples just because I always have bad luck on finding them (at least finding red and yellow ones) and having the cuttings take to the soil. But I always go out of my way to get every type of fruit I can since I like the making alcohol game. I don't drink a tone of it in game, but I like making it. Can't say why.

It's very much a start. Well done. Keep at it. There's much to make.

Thank you. I didn't know we had a builds thread, I'm somewhat new to the forums. As for the large book, that's a prop item I found in a ruin and fixed up with glue to pick up. A lot of the things I have on display are like that. If you're unfamiliar with glue just Cook resin and charcoal in a pot (it will ruin the pot for cooking). It takes 3 units of glue to fully fix something up. And glue hardens after a time so you have to be quick about it. But there are a lot of things you can grab form those ruins that make for good decorations.

I'm very proud of this image. It took some doing to get the rift centered in the image.

Well we do have the basic chair for four boards and a piece of cloth of any color. And it isn't hard to get a chisel, pretty much as soon as you have copper you can do it. Heck, I only got iron in my second Winter, and I did most of my chiseling before that with copper and bronze. But it's always up to you. I choose to make beautiful bases so I focus my efforts on that instead of other things. Heck I've got a whole museum in my attic to the things I find in the ruins. And another in my basement for things to do with forging:

Yes, chiselling is a path to many wonderful things in this game. Things of absolute beauty and aesthetic wonder. I challenge you to make the most beautiful chair you can, and to share it here with us, so we can all delight in the enjoyment of something well made.

Need assistance with setting up mechanical power.
Valsalan replied to Valsalan's topic in Discussion
Yeah it was just a lack of power. Thanks -
Nice setup you've got. I always chisel chimneys into all of my smoke producing areas just as a matter of habit, since I like how it looks. Glad to see other people doing the same.

To be fair if you go to the edge of any block or chiseled item and sit down your legs will hang over the edge. So there is nothing stopping you form just carving a chair or bench of your liking out of any combination of blocks and just sitting on it like so:

I've built a windmill and got it mostly working. Except when I connect it to my pulverize the entire system freezes up. (I've got pictures below of the whole set up). I'm not sure if it's just a matter of my windmill needing more sails as I've only got two sets on there and am getting 40KN out of it. Or if it's a matter of me making a mistake in my construction but any assistance would be welcomed.
