Legend tells of a fort besieged by a dragon. When 79 brave recruits fell to its breath, the last dwarf of the fort took up arms. He sprung from his sickbed and claimed an adamant one sword before he bulrushes the dragon. A clean swipe severs the head. But the dragon claws him in the lower body and burns him alive. As he melts into a pile of booze and fat, I rename him Ronnie James Dio and change his profession to dragonslayer. He will forever be immortalized and worshipped as a dragonslayer God.

You make traps at a Mechanics Workshop. You need to make trap components out of them. You get coal by bituminous coal. You might be able to get it by burning wood for coal too.

You probably don't have any "mechanisms" to build the weapon trap. You can make these from stone at a Mechanic's Workshop.

You can also get fuel by burning lignite at the smelter.

Or from metal bars at a metalsmith's forge.

When I tell them to male mechanisms at the metalsmith they never do it.if I cancel it and choose...say...serrated discs,they immediately do it.

Do you have a dwarf with the mechanic labor activated, who can get to the workshop?
