Mahogany logs

Mahogany logs are logs obtained with Woodcutting of level 50 on mahogany trees and yield 125 experience when cut. Players can burn these logs with the Firemaking skill of level 50, gaining 157.5 firemaking experience.

Mahogany logs can be made into mahogany planks at the sawmill for 1500 coins, or using the level 86 lunar spells Plank Make for 1050 coins. Mahogany planks are used to make many high level items in construction and yield 140 experience points in construction per plank.

The reason these logs might have gone up is due to their uses. They are used mainly by many macroing bots who run to the sawmill to turn into planks and sell due to its price in plank, which is around 2.3k each. Mahogany logs are used to make high level furniture such as armchairs, treasure chests, oubliette ladders, levers, and so on. Also many are used in conjunction with gold leaf to make items such as gilded benches, opulent tables, glided 4-posters, and so on. Cutting these is much better then cutting yews due to their prices, mahogany logs are 200 coins more then yew logs, and their requirement is lower by 10 levels. This is a good idea to make a profit, it is about half the price of magics but many of them are macroed (execpt resource), so cutting these maybe a good idea, but unfortunately they are very far from a bank unless you have finished Shilo Village to avoid paying 270 trading sticks per inventory. You cannot combine logs (teak special and mahogany special) to get a full set of planks. Special logs give the same experience as regular ones and are not tradeable or they would be at high prices. With the 23 September 2009 update on woodcutting, mahogany as well as teak trees give special logs which you can sell to the Varrock lumberyard for 3900 coins or exchange two of them for a free cutting of all the mahogany and teak logs in your inventory. See Special mahogany log for more information.

Locations

 * Tai Bwo Wannai's Hardwood grove has 4 Mahogany trees and 9 Teak trees.(sugested you bring about 20k trading sticks), due to that you will need to pay 270 for items, and 100 to get in.
 * East Kharazi Jungle south of Shilo Village has 3 Mahogany trees. Start Legend's Quest to begin.
 * South Ape Atoll has 2 Mahogany trees and a few Teak trees. Not a good idea due to bank distance and poisonus monsters around.
 * Mos Le'Harmless on two small islands, accessed via the large cave containing Cave Horrors, has 2 Mahogany trees and 2 Teak trees, one each per island. Follow the path to the north-east. Not a good idea due to cave horrors, albino bats, and distance to get there and bank.
 * After the completion of Royal Trouble, the player's subjects on Etceteria can collect mahogany logs if the player desires, but you will not get any special logs.

Trivia

 * Although in the skill guide it states that the quest Jungle Potion must be completed before cutting teak and mahogany logs, the quest is not actually required (you can still cut teak and mahogany logs even if you have not completed Jungle Potion).


 * Unknown to many players, Mahogany Logs are faster experience than yews and with the addition of special logs, can be better money than Magics.
 * The Evil tree's auto-banking magic does not work on Mahogany logs, due to that there are no mahogany evil trees.
