Anyone who reads the wiki knows this. You can speed up leather production by putting a tanning tub thats already tanning leather by putting it in a boat and then taking it out. This will put the percent complete up to 92(?).

That works for anything with a slot. Wagon, boat, leanto etc

When fighting someone, if they engadge first, place a signpost in front of you before they get to you and you'll null their attack - IE they will run into the sign - You can then follow up by attacking them while they are getting ready to attack you again (because they need to click the move and click your picture) - Also works while running away - you could use call down the thunder after you block them too

stack ip with thunder before they enter a distance to hit you, this is helpful with boars and slow-moving folk.

You can use boughs for wicker baskets and round poll fences - and presumely other things that just ask for a "stick" in the build menu - This is helpful for taming, when on grasslands and you run out of precious sticks blocking in animals.

I only tested this with both the WickerBasket and Round Poll Fence.

basically anything that requires "branch" will take boughs, the only thing that boughs dont work as a branch is for fuel use (oven, kiln, cauldron) as far as i know. i think ive tried almost everything. cone cow, barkboat, breadbasket, perched perch, bone saw, stone axe, banner, crossroad, plow, fire, hearthfire, dream catcher, loom, churn, cheeserack... tell me if you find anything that you couldnt use boughs for branches!

the tip ElGato mentioned before, the cauldron one, is the best i learned so far. (lift cauldron to stop water boiling.)

I dunno if it's really a pro tip...but I was stoked when I found out that bone ash could be used for crafting necro robes...I was wasting good food trying to make good ash....lol
