- Not to be confused with Sawmill.
Each hideout is equipped with a Table Saw that can be used to create Boards from Wood Logs.
The Table Saw must be filled with Gasoline in order to function. Filling the Table Saw with fuel is done the same way as filling Generators. It has a capacity of 400 fuel unit. It costs 25 units of Gasoline to transform one Wood Log into three Boards. A single processing would take exactly one marked chunk of the fuel gauge.
Strategy
- Given that each Wood Log sell for 10 Reputations and Boards can be purchased for 6 Reputations, it is technically cheaper to sell your Wood Logs and purchase Boards instead of Gasoline to process them.
- Boards can be obtained in the following exchanges:
- Selling one Wood Log and buy three Boards
- Costs 1 Wood Log
- Costs 8 Reputations (net change after selling and buying)
- Gains 3 Boards
- Sawing one Wood Log by using 25 fuel units
- Costs 1 Wood Log
- Costs 8.75 Reputations (assuming Gasoline is bought, Gasoline costs 0.35 Reputations per fuel unit, 25 fuel units thus costs 8.75 Reputations)
- Gains 3 Boards
- Selling one Wood Log and buy three Boards
- Therefore, it is strangely about 10% more cost effective to purchase Boards - the fuel processing cost plus the potential saleable value of the log always outweigh simply selling the raw materials that would be used for said processing and purchasing Boards instead.
- Boards can be obtained in the following exchanges:
- The Gasoline will stop being consumed in a filling action once the Table Saw is filled, so there is no worry of overflowing.
