Hey folks, just have a small question and figured this would be the best place to ask. Is it possible to mod in wood that is completely fire/magma proof? Attempting to make an above ground fortress cast from obsidian and carved out, and after playing around a bit I got the idea of a fortress that its milling/pumping needs would be done from lava flows. While I'm not sure if even with pumps working the magma to move, it would even produce enough flow to power a waterwheel. It would still look awesome. I'm not inexperienced when it comes to smelter based reactions, so if that was the only avenue. I'm sure I could do it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't have a link, but I'm fairly certain this has been tried, the result being that waterwheels are hard-coded to work only over water, not magma.

I figured they wouldn't work over magma, but they would only be built mostly for the look. The mill/pumps would either be powered by river that has been diverted underground and draining through a fortification carved in the side of the map, or a dwarven reactor.
