Spiffo trying to learn carpentry.

**Carpentry** is one of the most important skills in Project Zomboid. From
safehouse defense to hand made furniture, and even completely custom-built
structures, carpentry is the best chance at survival.

## Becoming a master carpenter

Ever since that first plank was nailed to the window, carpentry has been an
essential skill of any good zombie apocalypse survivor. This holds true within
the world of Knox Country, and it's your carpentry skill that can make the
difference between a safe house and a zombie buffet.

There are other benefits to learning carpentry too. These include better-
looking constructions, higher hp constructed items (such as log walls), and
faster building times.

## Character creation

The process of character creation can be a daunting one. You are required to
dedicate yourself to particular traits and skills, before you can even begin
playing.

Players should experiment with what they are comfortable with, or what skills
they want to build into, while being aware that some traits have major bugs,
that in some cases can make them worthless.

The skill levels you start with will also contribute an XP gain boost to those
skills, based on the level, as seen below.

**Starting skill level and experience boost**

    Level 0 – 50%
    Level 1 – 75%
    Level 2 – 100%
    Level 3+ – 125%

![Repairman](/w/images/f/fb/Profession_repairman2.png) Repairman | -4  | +1 Carpentry
+2 Maintenance  | N/A  | This one is for players who want to make the most out of what they've got. A repairman will have better durability from his weapons and tools.
![Engineer](/w/images/c/cd/Profession_engineer.png) Engineer | -4  | +1 Carpentry
+1 Electrical  | Can make traps and explosives.  | For anyone wanting to defend their safehouse with armed traps and explosives. The Engineer has a unique set of trap recipes that can't be learned by anyone else.

#### Traits

Name  | Cost  | Description  | Notes
---|---|---|---
![Handy](/w/images/a/a1/Trait_handy.png) Handy | -8  | +1 Carpentry
+1 Maintenance
Faster and stronger constructions.  | Reduced time to finish constructions and +100hp to all constructions (not including frames or walls).

Players should be aware that the handy trait only works on a few buildable
items. Specifically, it does _not_ work on wooden walls, but _does_ work on
log walls.

## The build menu

![](/w/images/thumb/1/1f/CarpentryMenu.png/500px-CarpentryMenu.png)

Right-click the ground to bring up the context menu. When you have a hammer in
your inventory, you will be able to browse the list of possible constructions.
Be aware that while building your character will be making noise and any
nearby zombies will begin wandering in your direction.

    _See more:Carpentry (crafting)_

The build menu can be accessed by right-clicking while carrying a Hammer. By
hovering over the carpentry option in the context menu, a sub-menu will open
showing each category of buildable. Items will show in red if you do not have
the ability or materials to construct an item.

### Types of buildables

The following items are the buildables/categories shown in the carpentry
context menu.

  * Walls
  * Door
  * Stairs
  * Floors
  * Crates
  * Bars
  * Furniture
  *   * Lamp on Pillar
  * Misc

### Multi-stage building

Some buildables require multiple stages of building to complete. The most
common of these is the wooden wall and window.

First, you must build the wooden wall frame, in the location you want to build
the wall. Note that zombies can climb through wall frames. Once completed, you
can right-click the built wall frame, and then choose the level of wall or
window you want to, and are able to build.

Note, doors cannot be built this way, and must be built using a wooden door
frame.

Wall/Window Level  | Carpentry Level
---|---
1  | 2
2  | 4
3  | 7

Walls/windows of level 1 or 2 can be upgraded to the next higher level at a
cost of 1 plank and 4 nails. A level one wall can be upgraded to level 2, and
then again to level 3.

The health of a wall is directly affected by your carpentry level.

## Getting started

To get started in carpentry, you need two main items. Tools, and materials.
Once you have these, and you are a high enough carpentry level, you can build
anything you want.

### Tools

    _Main article:Tools_

The main carpentry tool you will need is a hammer (tag). By having a hammer in
your inventory, you will get access to the carpentry category in the context
menu (accessed by right-clicking). Almost every carpentry recipe will require
a hammer.

Some actions and recipes also require other tools. These can include, but are
not limited to, a saw (tag), and a screwdriver.

Tools can be found in various locations across Knox Country, with house
garages and tool stores being the most common locations.

### Gathering materials

Nails and planks are the most common ingredients in carpentry. Nails are
commonly found in the same places as hammers and other tools, while planks can
be scavenged, sawed from logs, or dropped when dismantling furniture.

You will need a combination of the hammer/saw, or hammer/screwdriver, to
disassemble wooden furniture. Upon disassembly, a random number of nails and
planks, up to the construction cost of the furniture, will be dropped. This
amount is modified by your carpentry skill level, with lower levels having a
higher chance to produce unusable wood instead of planks, or nothing at all.

Logs can be found in various containers around the map, or obtained by
chopping down trees. With an axe equipped, you can right-click a tree, and
select the cut down tree option. You can then saw the logs, by right-clicking
on the saw or log, and choosing the 'saw logs' option. Sawing logs will make
three planks, and give XP.

## Levelling

### Media

Various types of media can assist in levelling carpentry.

#### Skill books

    _Main article:Skill books_

Skill books can help you level your carpentry by increasing the XP multiplier
when performing carpentry tasks. There are 5 books ranging from _Carpentry
Vol. 1_ to _Carpentry Vol. 5_. These relate directly to the player's current
skill level, with one book for every 2 levels. E.g. _Carpentry Vol. 1_
increases the multiplier for carpentry levels 1 and 2. This repeats for each
subsequent book.

#### Life and Living TV

    _Main article:Life and Living TV_

The _Life and Living TV_ channel on the TV runs for the first 9 days on
default settings. Each day at noon, the Woodcraft show plays. Watching the
Woodcraft show will give the player carpentry XP. Watching this, in
conjunction with having read the appropriate skill book, can give significant
amounts of XP.

#### VHS tapes

    _Main article:VHS_

The woodcraft show that runs on Life and Living TV can also be found in VHS
tape form. You can watch both the TV and VHS tapes for additional XP. Watching
this, in conjunction with having read the appropriate skill book, can give
significant amounts of XP.

### Actions

The following actions all provide carpentry XP;

  * Sawing logs.
  * Dismantling wooden furniture.
  * Building items from the carpentry menu.
  * Crafting some items from the crafting menu (e.g., Crafted Spear).
  * Barricading windows and doors with planks.

Other actions may also provide carpentry XP, but these are the most common.

### Power levelling

Power levelling carpentry can be quite easy, and reaching carpentry 10 can be
a simple, but repetitive task. Assuming you are starting at 0xp with no boosts
to carpentry, this is one of the best methods to level carpentry.

  * Early levels;
    * Search bookcases and book stores for carpentry books. Keep each unique carpentry book you find for later use. Keep an eye out for Woodcraft VHS tapes.
    * Watch every episode of Woodcraft live on Life and Living TV. With a skill book, you can easily get the first few levels of carpentry just from Woodcraft.
    * Cut down trees and saw logs into planks.
  * Mid-High levels;
    * Keep watching Woodcraft. Start using the VHS tapes, but only when you have read the appropriate books. Otherwise, you are wasting XP. VHS and TV will both give you XP, even for the same episode.
    * Start crafting walls, you will need to find nails, but they give a significant amount of XP. The best way to do this is to find a box of nails, then go to the forest and cut down logs. Saw the logs into planks, then build all the walls. This way, you get XP for each step in the process.
    * Alternatively; find a warehouse that has planks (I suggest the McCoy Logging Co.. The main warehouse has numerous planks in the crates). Either take the planks out, or disassemble the crates. Then build wooden walls. You will likely find nails here too.

If watch every episode of woodcraft, while you have the XP boost from skill
books, and finish out by building walls, you will quickly find yourself at the
high levels of carpentry.

## Finishing touches

### Plastering

    _Main article:Bucket of Plaster_

A bucket of plaster can be used to plaster built walls. This will then allow
you to paint the walls. First, you need to mix plaster in a bucket using a bag
of plaster powder and water. When you have the bucket with plaster in your
main inventory, right-click on the structure to plaster it.

### Painting

    _Main article:Paint_

Paint is used with a paintbrush to paint plastered walls. A full can of paint
can be used to paint up to ten walls or signs.

Once a can of paint has been used, or if the paint is poured out, it will be
replaced with an empty paint bucket, which can be used to collect water.

  * While most of these items serve no purpose other than decoration and flavor, some do have some use:
    * Money, Paper Napkins, Pine Cone, Playing Cards and Toilet Paper can be used as a fuel.
    * Dice and Playing Cards can be used to roll a random number or pick a random card in multiplayer.
    * Razor can be used to shave hair or beard, similar to scissors.
    * Rubber Duck with `Base.Rubberducky2` can store a battery inside, though it can not be found via normal means.
    * Toilet Paper can also be used as tissue to mute sneezes and coughs.
  * While labelled as junk, the Disposable Camera, Camera and High-end Camera can all be dismantled for electronic scrap and electrical experience.
  * While labelled as junk, Crayons can be used for writing as a combination of Pencil, Pen, Pen - Blue and Pen - Red.

Plumbing

TilesAppliancesLightingPlumbingComfortTablesStorageCurtainsMirrorsSignsMiscellaneous

Project Zomboid's plumbing system allows you to connect plumbable tiles (e.g.,
"water fixtures" like a sink or washing machine) to water reservoirs (like a
Rain Collector Barrel) to create convenient, sustainable sources of purified
water for consumption and cleaning. Once plumbed, water fixtures operate just
like ordinary sinks, faucets, etc., prior to water shutoff, for as long as
their attached reservoirs contain water.

## How plumbing works

![PZplumbing.png](/w/images/thumb/3/36/PZplumbing.png/300px-PZplumbing.png)

The plumbing system is somewhat obscure, and likely incomplete. There is no
visual indication when a water fixture like a sink is successfully connected
to a water reservoir like a Rain Barrel, beyond the ability to draw water from
the fixture. Plumbing has no skill level requirement and does not use pipes or
other resources besides the water fixture and water source to be connected.

  * To plumb a water fixture, a player needs to have a Pipe Wrench in their inventory.
  * Once the water fixture and water reservoir are in position, right click on the water fixture (not the reservoir) while a Pipe Wrench is in your inventory and select the option to plumb it. Once water is placed in the fixture's reservoir, purified water will be immediately available in the fixture, usable until the reservoir's reserves are exhausted. Fixtures that need electricity to function (e.g., a washing machine) will also need local power (such as from a Generator) to be usable. Plumbed sinks work without electricity.
  * Note that once a fixture is successfully plumbed, you can freely add or remove reservoirs from the 3x3 plumbing zone above the fixture without breaking the connection to that area, and your water fixture will automatically draw from any new reservoirs placed there. Only moving the fixture itself will break the plumbing connection.
  * Only fixtures "inside" a building - i.e. enclosed within four wall frames (or walls and doors) and a roof - can be plumbed

### Quirks of note

  * The water reservoir (e.g., a Rain Collector Barrel) for the water fixture must be one floor above, and within a 3x3 range, of the water fixture's tile (directly above should work as of the latest build). For example, a valid location for the reservoir would be one floor above, and one tile behind, the water fixture you want to plumb. A water fixture can draw from multiple reservoirs with valid placement.
  * While rain collectors make great reservoirs, any map tile that acts as a water source also appears to work. For instance, a Water Dispenser placed in an appropriate location can act as a water reservoir for another water fixture.
  * In multi-story buildings, long distance plumbing connections is possible using a Bathtub, as the feet of the tub counts as a revivor -- provided both the head and feet are plumbed.
  * What counts as "inside" for plumbing is less than intuitive:
    * To count as Inside, it only requires wall frames or door frames.
    * Inside can be as small as a 1*1 tile with a water fixture inside.
    * The walls/roof tile around the fixture do not have to remain in place after plumbing. You can plumb a fixture on a rooftop, for instance, by building temporary wall frames immediately around the fixture, and then disassembling them after plumbing is completed. In complex structures, the game can become confused about whether a fixture is inside a building; you may need to construct temporary wall frames immediately around the fixture to coax the game into allowing you to plumb it.

While the mechanics of plumbing are finicky, plumbed water fixtures can be a
very worthwhile investment in a safehouse: They always produce potable water,
eliminating the need to boil water and offering significant convenience in the
long run. A list of plumbable water fixtures and reservoirs is provided below.

**The Indie Stone**[1] is a small independent developer responsible for the
creation of Project Zomboid. Chris "Lemmy" Simpson, Andy "Binky" Hodgetts and
Marina "MashPotato" Siu-Chong established The Indie Stone in 2009, later
joined by Nick "Nickenstein" Cowen in 2011. The company first began working
together on small projects in their spare time, developing mods for The Sims 3
and Civilization 5, most notably the Indie Stone Story Progression Mod for The
Sims 3.[2] _Project Zomboid_ is The Indie Stone's first commercially released
game.[3] The studio has recruited more members over the years, especially
following the release of build 41.

The Indie Stone has also enlisted the help of Formosa Interactive, General
Arcade, The Eccentric Ape and previously Tanglewood Games to assist with
development of the game.

## Problems

The Indie Stone have been notably plagued with problems while creating
_Project Zomboid_.[4]

### Funds frozen by PayPal and Google Checkout

After The Indie Stone's PayPal account was 'limited' briefly, before the
decision was ultimately reversed, the team became "wary" of PayPal and opened
a Google Checkout account, which proved to be a much more popular purchase
method than PayPal. In April 2011, a month after the account was opened,
Google Checkout took issue with The Indie Stone selling "donations," blocking
new transactions and removing access to the funds in the account, which
comprised 80% of their income to date. Asking Google Checkout for
clarification, the team received only an irrelevant stock reply.[5][6] A day
later, The Indie Stone were contacted by someone from Google Checkout stating
that their funds would be available "soon" and clarifying that Google Checkout
offered a "pay what you like" feature.[7]

In May 2011,[8] PayPal placed their account "in a permanent limitation" with a
held balance of £4,454.47.[9] Developers Chris Simpson and Andy Hodgetts later
explained how they "didn't pay close attention to terms and conditions in
PayPal or Google Checkout," and that "the problem was selling a product that
didn't currently exist," leading The Indie Stone to instead sell "the world's
worst games" with the _Project Zomboid_ Alpha advertised as a free bonus.[10]

### Leak to public distribution

In June 2011, soon after the public release of _Project Zomboid_ as a paid
pre-alpha tech demo, the game was leaked, and unauthorized copies spread to
many other websites. [11] The unauthorized version of the game enabled
downloading from the _Project Zomboid'_ s servers with the press of an 'update
now' button, regardless of whether the user already had the latest version. In
order to avoid paying for these downloads, The Indie Stone took the customer-
only paid version offline,[12] and instead, released a free "public tech-demo"
for download the next day.[13]

### Theft of developers' laptops with source code

On October 15, 2011, the flat of two developers of _Project Zomboid_ was
broken into. Two laptops were stolen from the flat, containing large amounts
of the initial game code which had not been backed up externally for several
months.[14] This resulted in severe delays to the game development.[15][16]
Due to this setback, they gave a presentation at Rezzed entitled "How (not) to
make a video game", going over some of the lessons they have learned since
starting the project.[17]
