[[File:Plank detail.png|left|90px]] A '''Plank''' is a common [[construction]] item and is used in several [[quests]]. It is made of normal [[Logs|wood]]. Although Construction is [[Pay-to-play|Members-only]] [[skill]], the plank is available to [[Non-members|Free-to-play]] as it is used in [[Dragon Slayer]] and [[Unstable Foundations]].

==Construction==
{{main|Construction}}

Members can take four different types of logs to the [[sawmill]] to be changed to different types of planks for a price. The basic plank costs 100 coins to make. Planks can then be used to make construction furniture. Using a plank in construction grants 33 construction experience.

In addition to physically taking logs to the sawmill, players may also send their [[servant]] to the sawmill to convert them into planks. Also, the [[Plank Make]] spell from the [[Lunar Spells|Lunar spellbook]] may be used by players who have completed the [[Lunar Diplomacy]] and [[Dream Mentor]] quests, and have level 86 Magic. A full inventory of logs with coins has 54 kg while wearing nothing, you will lose 33 kg when you convert these into planks, which will weigh 21 kg.

==Spawns==
Planks also [[spawn]] in certain locations:
*North of the [[Agility#Barbarian Outpost|Barbarian agility course]] (4) (This is a great spot due to the bank deposit box in the next building.)
*[[Crandor]] near wrecked ship, on the beach (3) and in the water (2, requiring [[Telekinetic Grab]])
*On [[Entrana]] west of the Law altar (2)
*[[Miscellania]] dungeon near the platform
*[[Port Khazard]] near the General Store (2)
*Near the start of the [[Underground Pass (dungeon)|Underground Pass]]
*Ape Atoll, in an abandoned shack south of the gates (2)
*In the [[Wilderness]]:
:*Near the [[Ruins (east)|Eastern Ruins]] (1)
:*The [[Graveyard of Shadows]] (5)
:*[[Clan Wars]]
:*Throughout the [[Ruins (west)|Western Ruins]] - probably the best place, though it is dangerous (Around 10)
*In the goat pen in the [[Mountain Camp]] (1)
*In the dungeon beneath Miscellania and Etceteria - use the lift platform to go up (1)

==Quests==
*[[Hunt for Red Raktuber]] - 4 needed. (5 needed, if you don't have a penguin suit.)
*[[Dragon Slayer]] - 3 needed.
*[[The Great Brain Robbery]] - 18 needed.
*[[Horror From The Deep]] - 2 needed.

==Tip==
If players have access to the [[Balloon transport system]] they may use it to make [[Planks]] quickly. Start at [[Castle Wars]], using the Bank chest, and use the balloon to travel between there and the [[Varrock]] [[Sawmill]]. Due to weight restrictions, players may only carry about 18 logs to be made into planks at a time (as well as the money to make the planks and the [[Willow logs]] for the transport and a [[Ring of duelling]] to return to Castle Wars. Players can take the maximum 26 logs per trip by using [[Weight-reducing equipment]].

Note: [[Familiars]] cannot be used on the balloon transport system.

==Trivia==
* Prior to the introduction of the [[Construction]] skill, a plank was mainly a quest-related item and generally had a relatively low street value.
* Unless free players purchase planks on the Grand Exchange or from another player, they can only be obtained from the wilderness and Crandor respawn locations. The prior was a common [[Player killing|player-killing]] spot, due to a steady traffic of players attempting to complete the Dragon Slayer quest, including a number of players who generally avoided player killing areas and were unfamiliar with the tactics in the wilderness.
