Kinda tiny. You have a better screenshot?
Do I dare ask what you have you resolution set to?

Possibly the worst waste of adamant, but one of my dwarves used 6 adamantine bars to make a barrel... at least its worth over a million...

....They just refuse to stay down unless butchered, in which case their skins will haunt you until you subdue and tan them. Never has legendary butcher and legendary tanner seemed so valueable as in this release.

well, my training master weaponsmith got a possesion, and soon enough made a screw.  Oh, well, empty pump in dining room then, nothing more notable... except...

As a 200 year world due to megabeast survivability, apparantly this is the most notable event in all of history.

Every year since then images of it encrust the goods of dwarves, humans, and elves as they come to trade.  but worse than that, the very season after it is created, the goblin ambush leader is wearing... an exceptional pair of giant cave spider silk socks with the screw on them TWICE.

He must really want that screw.  Can we get pictures of it?

Only vaguely. Made of the same substance and put to the same use, but a bit like comparing a castle and a doublewide trailer.

Bubnusshilràr, "Scouredtulip", and enormous Steel corkscrew

This is a enormous Steel corkscrew.  All craftdwarfship is of the highest quality.  It is studded with Steel and decorated with rhesus macaque bone. On the item is an image of blazing suns in Felsite.

Weight: 1256  Value: 74400

I imagine it to be tulip shaped.  Maybe
i should put it in a trap if they like it so much.

Of course, the one I like better, and maybe good adventureer gear even from the same fort (got me a legendary weaver at least:

Dural Nilim, "The Honor of Tweeting", a Pig tail tunic

This is a Pig tail tunic. All craftdwarfship is of the highest quality. It is studded with Lead and Pig iron and encircled with bands of cow leather. It is made from pig tail cloth. The thread is red, well-colored with Redroot Dye. On the item is an image of a large gem in Pig tail (loom is right next to jewelers, and lots of large green glass gems come out of there).
On the item is an image of Kûbuk Craftlulls the dwarf and dwarves in green glass. Kûbuk Craftlulls is surrounded by dwarves.  The artwork relates to the ascension of the dwarf Kûbuk Craftlulls to the leadership of The Slave of Books in 163.

Weight: 15    Basic Value: 31800

stack of 10 prepared dragonfly brains - I'm trying to imagine what's more funny: a dwarf popping a tiny dragonfly brain into his mouth for a snack, the butcher who actually prepared this feast, or the brave hunter who ventured out into the wilderness and returned with this bounty.

One of the guys in my current fort produced a pretty snazzy spear:



Worth just over a million 100,000 dwarfbucks. The crown and the amulet are previous artifacts, although I don't know where the trumpets came from. And why anyone would want to commemorate a wooden crown with a toad and a cabinet on it is beyond me.

Obviously it is expected to become part of the king's regalia...

Not my best, but definitely my funniest:

"Mengthulsub, The Inconsiderate Drip, a Pig Tail Sock."
10 bucks says at least one dwarf will die for this sock.
