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.

| *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. |

| 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 Information
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.
Woods
Runestaffs, quarterstaffs, shields (T3), and ranged weapons (T3) will also be accepted, but extremely rare woods, which includes firewheel, illthorn, sephwir, and surita, will not work in weapon/shield form. The WoodChopper Box will accept all woods listed in alter fodder form, which is typically "a branch/stick of (wood)," but does not include sticks/branches/limbs sold at fletcher shops. Additionally, there are woods that would otherwise INSPECT as "wood" which can be used, with a comprehensive list available below.
