Guilds/SACFAR

Who

SACFAR is the Shabbat Ab Council for Facilities and Research, located in scenic Shabbat Ab (the region our grandparents knew as Seven Lakes).

Why

• To build and maintain public facilities.
• To get a few representatives each from different guilds which are involved in research and public works, for better cooperation and coordination.

People seeking a guild where they can work together on research projects may wish to visit one of these other guilds (The Wanderers being one of them).

Workshops

Basic Mats

Our first workshop is at 1375,1740 (next to the road between CS and SArt). Cornerstone kindly loaned by Karriellyn.

• 8 true kilns
• 2 rock saw (more later)
• 1 mason's bench (more, but quite later)
• 24 pottery wheels
• 1 kitchen
• 1 charcoal hearth
• 10 carp shops (no blades for a while yet, but you can make slate shovels and other tools)
• 3 stash/storage chests (donations are quite welcome)
• 1 swap-meet box (leave stuff for other players to take. A few flint, twine, jugs, stuff like that)

Planning to add another hearth and some charcoal ovens at some stage. may add improved brick racks (although there's a bit of a walk to get sand/mud), hand looms, etc., depending on concensus (/chat tlanthil your opinions/suggestions!)

Metals

Second workshop is nextdoor, at 1385,1760.

• 16 bullet furnaces
• 1 storage chest

Planned expansion (not yet built. What is built depends upon whether the metal buildings are the same as in T3):

• 8 student's forge
• 2 master's forge
• 3 student's casting box
• 1 master's casting box
• 1 compression furnace
• 2 anvil

Based on results from bullet furnace, expect to have several of both other furnace types (however, I'm guessing that bullet is the 'fast' one, and it's probably not worth having a furnace that takes hours publically usable)

Glassmaking

The Wanderers are working on a CP near limestone (and sand), SACFAR is contributing towards public glazier's benches and firepits at that location (details to be updated as they come in. It is a bit of a run, but most of what you need is all there)

Digging

Shabbat Ab digs (we've had a few already, we were the first with stonecutting open, we had enough stones for both stonecutting and stonemasonry on the first day of play) are often on the Nile bank, west of UArch. There's a large stone at 1420,2035 that makes a good meeting place/landmark.
