Metal Animal Traps
« on: June 04, 2012, 08:17:01 pm »

Are metal animal traps built by trappers, blacksmiths, or metal crafters?

Besides them and mechanisms, are there any other metal products that are not built by metalsmiths?

I asked this in one of the question threads, but didn't get a response.

They are furniture objects no?

Oh wait. Wow.

Yes, though it is contradicted by all a number of places that list the metalworking labors as the only ones used by the forge.

Also, my other question wasn't answered.

Chains are made by metalcrafters and not blacksmiths.

All animal traps are made by Trappers, whether made of wood or metal.

All mechanisms are made by Mechanics, whether made of stone or metal.

In much older versions of Dwarf Fortress, all crossbows were made by Bowyers, but this is no longer the case.

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

Thank you for the complete answer.
