Planks for building in Primitive Plus
Lumber is a resource from the Primitive Plus DLC of ARK: Survival Evolved, used as a building material. The in-game text calls it "Timber that is flat, elongated, and rectangular mainly used in construction." The item once went by the name Wood Plank.
Cutting Lumber from Wood
