Cut stone (stone cutting research and workbench that uses slag chunks) can be used to supplement other valuable resources, namely steel and wood.

Cut stone can be used to craft walls (even the conduit walls that carry electricity), or fancy floors with faster than default walk speed and less mood penalty. Cut stone can be used to craft doors, automatic doors, tables, benches, beds, royal beds... Template:Clr Types of stone blocks(Alphabetical Order):
