There are no standard instruments or names for them, nor are there intended to be. Specific instruments are semi-randomly generated at [[world generation]] (both their names and the details of any components they are built of), and are usually specific to each [[civilization]]. The stone triangle your dwarves have in this fortress will almost certainly not be the stone triangle you have in the next fortress, nor that their neighbors have in either. This can make remembering the various instruments a challenge - a notepad or equivalent may be handy. | There are no standard instruments or names for them, nor are there intended to be.

In order to find out what instruments are available to your fortress, go to a [[craftsdwarf's workshop]] and look under the instrument section. It will show ''most'' of the available instruments, either as a whole instrument or some individual component. Go to the other workshops (listed above) for any additional instruments. Highlight each individual instrument will show their description and material required. | In order to find out what instruments are available to your fortress, go to a [[craftsdwarf's workshop]] and look under the instrument section.
