No powder.
« on: November 14, 2011, 04:23:41 am »
My fortress doesn't seem to have access to any kind of sedimentary stone, so I don't have anything to make plaster powder with. Nor does the mountainhome seem to have access to it either.

How should I go about fixing bones?

I'm on and off. I usually pop up for a few months then head out for a few.

You've got tentacle teeth or ribbon goblins.  Pick your poison.

You can make splints from wood, they do the same job as plaster casting IIRC.

Oh, if splints work, that's fine. The elves are here right now, and for some reason they brought about 15 of them.

Also, I just checked the import agreement, it seems the Mountainhome somehow has gypsum plaster powder, that I somehow missed.

Will either of them help a broken floating rib though?

No idea on that, but you may as well try and find out.
