Obtaining

Logs are gathered by chopping down Trees with an Axe. Chop the bottom-most log to fell the entire tree. If the axe does not have enough durability to fell the entire tree, as many logs as possible starting from the top of the tree will be chopped and the axe will break.

Player placed logs can also be harvested with a Saw.
