Saw Uses
The most important use of the saw is to create
Planks from logs.
However a saw can also be used to create support beams for use in mines.

Planks
Support Beams
Combining two logs, from any tree of the same type with a saw creates eight support beams like shown in the recipes below.

Metal Saws can only be made from tool metals. They can be cast in ceramic molds, or worked on a metal anvil.

Saw Blades can also be crafted by using ingots on an anvil with a hammer. This is the only option for higher tier metals that cannot be cast. The durability depends both on the metal used and the skill of the smith forging the tool.
