What is Better: Wood frame or Log wood block?
You can make a wood frame out of 2 wood, whereas the log cabin block needs 20 wood. The wood frame has only 50 hit points, whereas the log wood block has 400. The log wood block is the choice for the initial build if you have enough resources. However, if you look at the upgrades, a log cabin wood block needs ten more wood to change it to a reinforced wood block. You can upgrade the wood frame to the same item by first upgrading it to a wood block using four more wood and another 4. The materials needed for each item show that although the base version of the log wood block is stronger, it uses a lot of resources than the wood frame. Since they can both be upgraded to a reinforced wood block, looking at the long run, it is best to use the wood frame. But if you do not plan to upgrade, then log wood block may be the right choice.
What is the difference between a rebar frame and a wood frame?
A rebar frame is a frame that can be crafted at a forge that has an anvil. It requires five iron and one clay, and the frame has 50 hit points. The main difference between a rebar frame and a wood frame is that a rebar frame can be upgraded into a reinforced concrete block using 20 concrete mixes. However, you will need to use ten wood to create a concrete form block. The block will have wood surrounding it until it is set. When the wood pops off, you can use the concrete mix to upgrade it further. Wood frame is upgradable to different items such as a cobblestone block after several upgrade stages. Since rebar frames are used to upgrade to one of the most durable blocks in the game, it has the upper hand on the basic wood frame.
