I figured it out: I needed to queue them from the manager screen.

Unfortunately, this is after my legendary Stoneworker who was in a fey mood and lusting after leather when mad and drowned himself.

Bloody Dwarves.

I recommend keeping tanneries adjacent (or at least in very close proximity) to the butcher's area. Also, you can configure a refuse stockpile to only accept fresh raw hide. Even a five-six tile stockpile so restricted does wonders.

I've never had that issue. However, I also use one tannery, so there's only ever one shop to queue the job in.

Do you have rotten hides around? If no tanning jobs are getting done, you should have some laying about somewhere. If there aren't any, then someone must be making leather.

WAT? U CNT GO TO OTHAR DIMPLENSIONS?

Ever climb stairs without knees?

Ever climb stairs with a dwarf-beard?

and a billy goat was useless.

(OK, not exactly. Enjoyed yr. story, nonetheless)

I have a great many dwarves with chronic infections, in several cases nearly a decade. No one but an odd war dog here and there ever seems to die, though. What am I doing wrong?!

Build a bed atop a wall, then deconstruct the wall while he's sleeping on it, causing him to fall 2 levels.  1 level fall causes no injury report, 2 levels is minor injuries.  Or drop a wild groundhog on him.

That's the ticket!
