[edit] Stockpiling

Not that you want to keep it much... but where do I find how to store ash in the stockpile I am setting up between my wood furnace and my ashery? GarrieIrons 08:45, 5 January 2008 (EST)

Stockppile, Custom settings, enable Bars/Block, forbid Bars: Metal, Blocks, Blocks: Metal. Then toggle off coal, potash, pearlash and tallow soap, leaving ash the only allowed material.--Maska 10:22, 5 January 2008 (EST)

[edit] Other sources

Not that ash is really worth worrying about all that much, but I've noticed (through fun times, that Magma Men (probably other firebreathing things too) can create ash from plants, trees, and dwarves on the surface at least. I was running a test site to pump magma around, and a magmaman to offense and breathed fire over my workshops and haulers/crafters. The dead dwarves and vegetation became ash.--Dadamh 14:48, 2 June 2008 (EDT)
