====Planks====
Pick up a log. Activate your newbie saw. Right-click on that log and select ''Create > Construction material > Plank''. You'll need 20 planks per wall, so 80 planks for a 1x1 house. This will take a while and a lot of logs, but as your carpentry skill increases, you'll get faster. You'll end up with a lot of wood scraps in your inventory. You can drop these on the ground, but keep them nearby as you'll need them soon.
'''Reminder: Repair your newbie tools often, they are low quality and might disintegrate!'''
