My friends and I are having serious trouble getting the building logs required for the house we are working on.

I have logging, forestry and carpentry all on 100 and an ironsaw quality 58 and still 80% of the time, my character is not able to correctly produce a building log and the whole tree is wasted.

Do you know of any way of improving this, so ideally I wouldn't waste any logs? It seems very weird to me, that my character is a master-carpenter/lumperjack, but not even able to successfully saw a log so it can be used for building. Do I need an even better saw? That honestly would be a little ridiculous.

Thank you in advance.

Most likely the fallen log your sawing on is too small to make a compete building log. Try cutting down larger trees to make building logs. Let me know if that works.

It doesn't seem to be related to the size of the tree. Often I wasted big, high quality oaks and didn't get a single log. Then again sometimes I got 1 or more logs out of a small tree.

I'm trying to understand this too. It got to be something about the quality and size. Maybe there's some kind of random chance depending on how good the tree is?

The quality of the tree is what matters when trying to understand how much product it will produce. It also varies based on the type of tree as well, for example a 75%Q oak tree will give you a ton more than a 75%Q apple tree. Always inspect the tree first and if you are after building logs you shouldn't waste your time with anything under 15%, but this is not a hard and fast rule that works all the time. The type of tree still matters, a 14% oak might give you 1 building log but other trees might not.

TLDR: Higher quality = more product
