How to Get Wooden Beams in Pax Dei

Pax Dei offers multiple recipes for one resource. This makes it essential to have plenty of this particular resource in your chest or warehouse. Sapwood is probably the biggest one, and it is used to craft multiple resources needed to build walls, buildings, and even tools. These craft everything from planks all the way up to beams, and they are all used in large quantities throughout the game. Here is a quick guide on how to unlock and acquire beams to start your base building adventure in Pax Dei.

How to make wooden beams in Pax Dei

To make a wooden beam, you will need to first obtain a construction hammer and some sapwood. If you don’t have a chopping axe yet, you can pick up some branches on the floor to get some simple sapwood.

Once you have Sapwood, use the Construction Hammer to place a Wooden Chopping Block that uses Sapwood. Once placed, interact with it and look for the Wooden Beam crafting. It takes 10 Sapwood to make 5 Wooden Beams. However, you will also need Sapwood to craft other items such as Long Timbers, Dowels, Planks, and Short Timbers.

If you don’t have a steady supply of sapwood, you should only make enough beams to craft. Once you make more progress, it’s a good idea to have at least 8-10 chests dedicated to these materials.

You can have a box dedicated to short logs, beams, long logs, planks, and nails. The rest should be used for sapwood, which is also needed for charcoal and other building items.
