Tapping Trees

Some types of trees can be tapped for useful fluids. These trees can either produce sugary saps which can be concentrated into syrup and used as a sweetener, Latex which can be processed into rubber, or Pitch which can be processed into rosin, a wax substitute.

Tapping a Maple Tree

Three things are required to tap a tree: the tree itself, a tree tap, which must forged from a Copper Ingot and placed in the middle of a trunk at least three blocks tall, and a barrel, which must be placed directly below the tap facing upward. If the conditions are right, your barrel will immediately begin to fill with sap.

At least three naturally grown logs are required for tapping.
