The WoodChopper Box was released during the 2022 run of Rumor Woods. Runestaffs and quarterstaffs, along with alter fodder branches dropped during Duskruin Dig and sold at Woodn't Yew can be used in the box. Extremely rare materials, such as firewheel, illthorn, sephwir, and surita will not be accepted in weapon or shield form.

Tier 1

This is the off-the-shelf tier which creates basic wood blocks that can be used for forging*. At this tier, it will only require the fodder and charges from casting Minor Shock or Major Shock (910), or silver wands.

*Please note: While woods noted may be made into blocks, they may not be recognized by forging, as forging requires an update to do so.

Analyze

*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------*
     *Congratulations on your purchase of the Woodn't Yew's premier product: The WoodChopper Box.*

  The WoodChopper Box is able to take your unwanted runestaffs and quarterstaffs and turn them into
  something else with a flick of a switch and the press of a button.  All your wildest dreams can
  come true with this amazing creation.  That's an exaggeration, but just wait and see what it can
  do!

  Instructions:
   Step 1 - PUT your unwanted piece of wood into your WoodChopper Box.
   Step 2 - Either CAST Minor Shock (901) or Major Shock (910) at the contraption OR PUSH a silver
            wand into your WoodChopper Box*.
            *NOTE* - The WoodChopper Box can hold a maximum of 40 charges.  When using a silver wand,
                     please note that it will fully deplete all charges from the wand.  Item creation
                     will use 10 charges each time.
   Step 3 - TWIST the lever on your WoodChopper Box and listen as it chops your wood up and creates
            something better.
   Step 4 - TURN the knob on your WoodChopper Box to get your new item.

  Additional Instructions:
   * If you decided you do not want to make an item just yet, you can TURN your WoodChopper Box to
     retrieve your wooden sacrifice.
   * If you wish to clear your WoodChopper Box's charges, you can PULL it.

  This WoodChopper Box is currently unlocked to Tier 1, off-the-shelf, and has access to the
  following verbs:
    DROP, SHOW, PULL, PUSH, TURN, TWIST

  This WoodChopper Box is currently set up to make:

                                              *Alterations*
  The WoodChopper box has a hard-coded show description, which cannot be altered.  However, it can

     *Congratulations on your purchase of the Woodn't Yew's premier product: The WoodChopper Box.*

  The WoodChopper Box is able to take your unwanted wooden shields, bows, crossbows, runestaffs, and
  quarterstaffs, and turn them into something else with a flick of a switch and the press of a
  button.  All your wildest dreams can come true with this amazing creation.  That's an exaggeration,
  but just wait and see what it can do!

  Instructions:
   Step 1 - PUT your unwanted piece of wood into your WoodChopper Box.
   Step 2 - Either CAST Minor Shock (901) or Major Shock (910) at the contraption OR PUSH a silver
            wand into your WoodChopper Box*.
            *NOTE* - The WoodChopper Box can hold a maximum of 40 charges.  When using a silver wand,
                     please note that it will fully deplete all charges from the wand.  Item creation
                     will use 10 charges each time.
   Step 3 - NUDGE an appropriate gem into your WoodChopper Box in order charge it for zesting.
            (optional)
            *NOTE* - What you can make is dependent on the value of the gem you sacrifice.
            **DISCLAIMER** - Sacrifice of the gem is PERMANENT and cannot be undone.  Once your
                             WoodChopper Box eats your gem, it is gone and you cannot get it back.
   Step 4 - TINKER with your WoodChopper Box's dials to find which result you want. (optional)
   Step 5 - PROD the switch on your WoodChopper Box to further determine what type of the thing you
            wish to create.  This option is only available for weavables, cobbling materials,
            fletching shafts, and forageables. (optional)
   Step 6 - POKE the switch on your WoodChopper Box to select which finish you wish to create for
            your new item.  This option is only available for toothpicks, waveables, cobbling mats,
            hairpicks, and lockmastery clasps. (optional)
   Step 7 - SPIN the dial on your WoodChopper Box to select which shape you wish your item to be
            created as.  This option is only available for weavables, cobbling settings, hairpicks,
            and lockmastery clasps. (optional)
   Step 8 - TWIST the lever on your WoodChopper Box and listen as it chops your wood up and creates
            something better.
   Step 9 - TURN the knob on your WoodChopper Box to get your new item.

  Additional Instructions:
   * If you decided you do not want to make an item just yet, you can TURN your WoodChopper Box to
     retrieve your wooden sacrifice.
   * If you wish to clear your WoodChopper Box's charges, you can PULL it.
   * If you wish to clear out the gem in your WoodChopper Box, you can PINCH it.

Additional Information

POKE, PROD, & SPIN will not work properly if the WoodChopper Box is not set to create an item that has variables to them. Weavable beads can only be beads or spacers, however weavable ornaments can be any shape.

Show

The WoodChopper Box has a hard-coded Show as part of its design. The bolded portions may change based on settings and contents.

Oblong in shape, with a length of about six hands, the wooden box is an interesting device.  Two glass buttons blink in tandem on the back of the box; the dull blue one blinks over a small drawer and the dull silver one flashes over a panel.  Positioned between the two is a turn style knob that sits above a small window with the words, "Arrow Shafts" positioned in its center.  At the top of the piece is a small door that dominates seven-eighths of the expanse, with the remaining space being occupied by a large, round lid.  A window on the right side provides a view of the sawdust-lined interior.

Item Options

PONDER will display finish and noun options based on the WoodChopper Box's settings. Finishes are available for toothpicks, weavables, LM clasps, cobbling materials, HairPicks, and cobbling heels. Noun variations are available for weavables, LM clasps, cobbling settings, and HairPicks. Custom settings will display here, as well.
