Tips

• Reclaimed wood can be found inside and near buildings, fishing huts, or by harvesting crates, shelves, tables, chairs and etc. with a Heavy Hammer, Improvised Knife, or Improvised Hatchet. Small wooden items may be broken down with bare hands, expending more calories and taking more time however.
• Reclaimed Wood and Cedar Firewood are efficient sources of fuel per weight, at 120 min/kg. Since pieces of Reclaimed Wood are smaller than Cedar Firewood, they give more control of a fire's duration, allowing more efficient fuel without waste.
• A single piece of Reclaimed Wood will heat a canned food or drink without it burning, as the fire will extinguish 10-20 minutes after the food or drink is done.
