Projects create waste (ie. cutting wood = wood chips)

[JJ]

ok, i was thinking since we do use a planer to fix furniture, and weapons...leaving wood shavings. what if we could still use the wood shavings as wood? like a miniture form of wood but say like a small furnace or an oven of some sort to keep warmth. i dont know what all could really be done with it but i know you can burn it hehehe!!

like gas + wood shavings = massive bon fire lol something of that sort, but just for warmth.

GAS LEAK!!! o_o; I was wondering, how would you contain gas anyway? In balloons?

[thingnumber2]

easily enough, just make a barrel and strap it to your back...

[kroner]

and umm... what is gas anyway? it's kind of vague... i mean, chlorine gas? oxygen gas? methane? superheated iron gas? natural gas?
it's like if there was a resource called "solid".
just about eveything has a gas form under the right conditions, so what is it?

[JJ]

gas is gas nothing more than just gas. gas can only be gas by it being a gas gas. im pretty sure its just gas.

[Sho]

So it's the colloquial "gas," or gasoline. In that case, why would you need the wood shavings in the first place? In real life, they'd just mess up the stove.

If I remember 7th grade science class correctly, which I am sure I do not, We can take the gas and make it colder, it will condense and form a liquid. So we just need a machine that makes things colder, some grams of gas and we will then have liquid.

Then we put the grams of liquid into another machine that makes it even colder, and it turns into solid.

Now that I think about it, wouldnt we need a very high number of grams of gas to make a small amount of grams of solid.

Then we could make igloos.

If you tried to do it without a stove, on the other hand, you'd probably start a wildfire and then Cantr would be dead and brown.

@Bowser: Huh? If we're talking about gasoline, which I thought we were, it's usually liquid but is quite difficult to freeze. A refrigerator-like machine that could lower the temperature to that level would almost certainly require electricity. It would also make a lousy building material, since you'd have to refrigerate your building.
THe mass of the substance would not change. The volume would. You could start with a balloon of a gas and watch it shrink down to a fingernail sized piece of a solid.

I was going off in Kroner's thought

ummm... every substance can exist as a solid, liquid or gas given the right temperature and pressure... we already have solids in game: iron, wood, coal, carrots, magnesium, etc. how does that help with an igloo?
also grams iare a mass measurement and so 1g of gas would become exactly 1g of a solid.

I suppose you could make an igloo out of carrots if you melt it down to a liquid form and then freeze it into a block of solid carrot, but I decided it would be better to condense the gas into liquid and freeze it into blocks and make an igloo. Sounds easier than turning a solid into a liquid and then into a solid again.

[Sho]

The only problem is that the igloo would melt and then evaporate. Your frozen carrot mush would also melt into mushy carrot mush. Neither is a long lasting building material.

MMmm, mmm, goood. My characters are getting older and carrot mush may be needed because of the tooth decay if it is implemented... but...

I never said build an igloo in the desert. That would be crazy talk. Ever been to Nraam? That place is located high atop a frozen mountain. My carrot igloo (probably potato igloo for carrots are not on the island) would not melt, but might get eaten by Billygoats which is why I still think condensing the gas and refreezing it into blocks would make a much better igloo.

When did this suggestion topic get hijacked? What were we discussing?

[JJ]

by stove i ment the old western types made of heavy iron *bangs on a iron stove* lol it would take alot to make some of those wood shavings to burn why not make a huge fire ball go flying out of the smoke stack going out of the building by stuffing the oven with gas and lighting it? hey Chris make sure to get close to the pipe on the roof might burn ya browage off. roflmafo!!!!!! anyways as i was saying, would be cool!
