Quick guide on how to convert Special logs to planks fast.

[metoo1000]

This is a quick guide on how to convert your special logs into planks.

 

Method:

 

Step 1: Bank at castle wars.

Step 2: Run north east to the hot air balloon and fly to the Varrock landing spot.

Step 3: Talk to the sawmill operator and convert logs into planks.

Step 4: Teleport via duel ring to castlewars and bank your planks, then repeat steps 1-3.

 

Equipment.

 

Try to use some weight reduction armor to help save run energy.

Duel ring for banking.

Games necklace just in case you forget a new duel ring.

 

Inventory.

 

 

2 Specail logs of your choice(depends on what logs you are converting).

1 willow for the cost of the flight to varrock.

and 25 logs (the kind you want to convert).

 

Test runs i did averaged about 44 seconds per run.

 

That is around 78 runs per hour which is about 1.9k planks an hour.

 

If you cut the logs your self that is 3.65 an hour profit. not counting the time it took to get the special logs or the normal logs.

 

 

[hide=How to figure your profit an hour]

 

used teaks for examples

 

with this math problem(without the special logs).

 

P= plank price on ge

G= ge price of log

PC= plank convert price

H= how many logs you can convert an hour

 

(P-(G+PC))*H

 

ex.(1016-(209+500))*1900 = 583,300

or

(P-G-PC)*H

 

ex. (1016-209-500)*1900 = 583,300

 

With the special logs and you buy the logs off ge

 

(P-G)*h

ex. (1016-209)*1900 = 1,533,300

 

and if you don't buy anything and just convert logs to plank its just plank price times the number you can do an hour.

You stated it was 3.65 profit at the bottom. Is that mil?

Yes mil, but only if you have the mahogany logs and special logs already.

[Bladewing]

You should still count the cost of normal teaks/mahogonies, since there's an opportunity cost of using them (because you can sell them).

 

It's about 1.65m an hour if you already have the special logs.

 

Do you know how many special teaks and normal teaks you can cut and bank an hour?

no i don't exactly , its around 1 log every other inventory of logs, and also 1.9k mahogany logs is about 800k so even if you bought all the logs and had the special logs banked its still around 2.8m an hour which is nuts.

 

 

you can also make around 700k an hour using this method to make oak planks. if there is allot of requests i can further this guide to make money with oak planks and possible teak planks.

[Championfurydelta123]

say i dont do mahogany logs and ive already got all the special teak logs and teak logs.

 

how much would i profit an hour doing teaks like this?

 

you can take this as a request to further the guide on teaks :P

and maybe oaks ?

if you had the teak special logs and bought the normal teak logs off ge:

teak logs are 209 gp mid ge

 

teak planks are 1016 gp mid ge

 

so 1016-209 = 807

 

at 1900 planks an hour 807*1900 = about 1.5m profit an hour

 

if you already had them both from woodcutting you would make.

 

1016*1900 = 1.93m almost 2m/hr

 

if you just pay for the planks at 500 ea per log to plank

 

you would be making 300 gp per log so 300*1900 = 570k an hour w/o special logs and buying the teak log off ge

 

or if you had the logs and just payed the 500 ge to convert to planks you would make 500 gp a loge 500*1900 = 950k an hour

 

 

you can do the same math for oak and normal logs

 

with this math problem(without the special logs).

 

P= plank price on ge

G= ge price of log

PC= plank convert price

H= how many logs you can convert an hour

 

(P-(G+PC))*H

 

ex.(1016-(209+500))*1900 = 583,300

or

(P-G-PC)*H

 

ex. (1016-209-500)*1900 = 583,300

 

With the special logs and you buy the logs off ge

 

(P-G)*h

ex. (1016-209)*1900 = 1,533,300

 

and if you don't buy anything and just convert logs to plank its just plank price times the number you can do an hour.

Duel ring - bank - skills neck to crafting guild - hot air ballon is faster :P

[Jacks0n]

Very nice little guide =]

[Gizzern]

Nice little guide there, used the same technique when I was recently converting my Special Teak logs from 80-96 wc to planks.. For anyone wondering I got ~1200 Special Teak logs from all that xp, so I guess that gives you an idea of how often you get them :)

[Teryaki]

Veru Useful Guide, Im sure There are some newbie members wondering on how to make money

For example ive seen over 10+ topics in the achievements place about how members finally got their first 100k/1m and here you can make more then that in one hour ;]

 

Thumbsup!!! :thumbsup:

[foursideking]

overall i don't truly find this guide too useful. I'd rather replace 1 of the logs with another willow to save $ on dueling rings, and this guide didn't really include the easy ways to get the special logs...3/10!

Anychance you could provide some infomation on these 'special' logs, what are they, how to get them etc... I've been playing runescape for 6 years now and never heard of them until now... :unsure:

The special logs are apart of the Woodcutting Rebalance.

Ok thanks!

After about a half hour to a hour of teak cutting on ape atoll powering teaks for special logs, I got around 14 Special logs... This Is harder than I expected :-(

Hopefully I'll have enough to start using your guide soon. Thank you!

[Grimy_Bunyip]

try digsite pendants for your runs too, i'm curious if they're quicker

[Killzre]

Digsite pendants are quicker i think, wouldn't know, didn't do too many runs, and don't have access to balloons....

But, i'm gonna say most likely.

They are a tad faster but not as cost efferent due to the prices of rubies.
