The quickest way is to build a bridge, a lever, and conscript 6 dwarves into the military.

I wish we had access to more than blue/emerald/red/silver colorations for dyes.
You can always mod in a few new options. The genesis mod does this, I'm pretty sure.
That said, I don't know why I thought Featherwood bins were the best choice. Clearly, Aluminum / Zinc are better (and can be melted down if they aren't masterwork!)

Try offering stuff to the dwarven caravan (not trading, *offering*).
It worked for me, and had the added advantage of making my in-progress megaproject a barony!

The lightest woods are:
Featherwood -- 100
Cedar -- 380
Alder -- 410
The lightest metals are:
Adamantine -- .200
Aluminum -- 2.70
Zinc -- 7.13
Pigtail and Ropereed both use the default "thread" values of 1520. The silks also use the default "silk" values of 500 (same as leather).

Where is the workshop itself located? It's possible you managed to make the workshop itself unreachable. Also, check for fuel, and make sure your metalsmiths are actually loitering around with [no job], and aren't doing something more "pressing" like moving goods between stockpiles, sleeping, or eating.

Stairs work even better as scaffolding when dealing with cast obsidian. In that case, you have a whole bunch of walls connected to upstairs -- remove the walls first, and then you can remove the freestanding stairs with a lever'd support and one massive cave in.

DF Gameplay Questions / Re: Easy jewellery
« on: October 25, 2010, 12:13:56 pm »
Each decoration can only be applied to an object once -- once you've decorated a door with rubies, you can't decorate it with rubies a second time.
So the simplest method is just to limit your jeweler to encrusting with only three types of gems.

No. If you reclaim an old fort, you are able to put the old fort's artifacts up for trade though.

Bottom-most section of the map, there's a string of 5 volcano tiles in a row. The embark you're looking for is in the middle volcano.
