Ordinary logs in detail

A fire made from ordinary logs.

Logs are items obtained from trees, dead trees, evergreens, jungle trees or dying trees with the Woodcutting skill. Players can burn these logs with the Firemaking skill, or turn them into bows or arrow shafts using the Fletching skill. These logs have no requirement to be cut or burned. They can be bought at Polypore Dungeon Supplies in the Polypore Dungeon or from the Grand Exchange.

One of the many kinds of tree that yield normal logs.

Normal logs respawn in several places including: the roof of Lumbridge Castle, a house in Draynor Village, a house in Varrock, the Wizards' Tower, and in Brian's Archery Supplies in Rimmington.

Members can also turn these logs into bows and arrow shafts with the Fletching skill. It is currently the only log that can be used with the coloured firelighters given as Treasure Trail rewards, producing a coloured fire in five additional colours: red, blue, green, white or purple.

The menu displayed when fletching normal logs.

Members who have completed Enlightened Journey can also use these logs to travel to Entrana or Taverley using the Balloon Transport System.

Cutting logs is also a good way to earn money for low levelled players when sold at the Grand Exchange.

If a member has equipped a Seers' headband 1 or higher, the player will receive two logs from each tree, instead of one.

You can earn 60,000 to 80,000 coins per hour chopping logs.

Trivia

• A large drop in the price of oak logs from the end of November to the beginning of December 2010 resulted in logs becoming the second most expensive free-to-play logs.
• If each log were to be burned separately without being added to a bonfire, ashes may be picked up for a decent profit, with ashes selling for 300-350 each, on average.
• Logs obtained from Turorial Island look exactly the same as normal logs however they are untradeable and cannot be fletched.
• When logs from tutorial island are lit the fire that is spawned on the ground has no option for logs to be added too it.
• When logs from tutorial island are now burnt 0xp is given. It is not known if this is because you are greater than level 3 firemaking (The level cap for tutorial island) or because the ability to gain xp from the logs is an area effect only linked with tutorial island.
• It is unknown how many players still have the logs from tutorial island in the bank, however it is not estimated to be very many at all. As they were never supposed to leave the island only a handfull of players managed to smuggle the logs off the island before the dying and spawning in lumbridge glitch was patched.
• They can be a very good source of money making for low level fletchers, as arrow shafts sell quite well. Even more when feathers are attached
