[edit] Construction
Oak logs can be taken to the Sawmill operator to be changed into oak planks for 250 coins each, which can then used in the Construction skill to make furniture. When first released, players would buy Oak planks for 2,000 gp each.
An easy way to get free planks is to buy oak logs, make them into oak planks and sell 62 to get a refund. This works because the cost of buying the logs and making them into planks (about 50 per log + 250 for sawmill fee) is less than the price of oak planks.
Another good way to save money, although much slower, is to cut twice the logs, turn them all into planks and sell half of them. With this method, a stack of 500 planks would only cost about 25,000 gp.
[edit] Profit
Oak planks can be used to make a profit, however, Teak planks are a slightly better to make a profit. Here is the breakdown:
- Cost of Oak Log: 26 coins update.
- Cost to make Oak Plank: 250 coins.
- Oak Plank sells for: 421 coins update.
- Profit would be approximately 145 coins
Note: Prices change frequently, check Runescape's Grand Exchange Prices for more precise details.
[edit] Quests
- Cold War 10 needed.
- TokTz-Ket-Dill 15 needed.
[edit] Tip
If players have access to the Balloon transport system they may use it to make Planks quickly. Start at Castle Wars, using the Bank chest, and use the balloons to travel between there and the Varrock Sawmill. Due to weight restrictions players may only carry about 18 logs to be made into planks at a time (in addition to the money needed to make the planks, and the Willow and Yew logs needed for the balloons). If players have Boots of lightness they may carry about 20 Logs at a time. Using a spotted cape or spottier cape will allow you to carry the full 25 logs.
