 | Cutting. Hire 2 more woodcutters than there is wood in your area, and send up to 2 woodcutters (or 1 woodcutter and your mill worker) to cut in another area. You may take wood another player wanted; they may cut what is left or pay $1 for a free area. Wood only, no food. | spring, summer, fall |

 | Drying. Put double the usual amount in the first drying area this round: 2 disks or 4 milled logs. | spring, summer, fall (this picture prints the German initials F S H) |
 | Sawing. Saw 2 disks with one sawyer and one saw. Each further sawyer with a saw saws 2 more, up to 8. | spring, summer, fall, winter |
 | Hut Construction. Turn 2 of the 3 needed craftwork tokens into a hut at once, flipping them onto the hut areas. | spring, summer, fall |
