The Tapper is a crafted item that can be placed on a tree to produce Maple Syrup, Oak Resin, or Pine Tar. It can also be placed on a Mushroom Tree to produce different mushrooms.

The Tapper can be removed from a tree by hitting it once with an axe. This leaves the Tapper intact and able to be reused.

If the Tapper is on a tree when it is struck by lightning, both the Tapper and its contents are destroyed.

Tappers placed on Maple Trees, Oak Trees, or Pine Trees continue to produce during Winter. Since Mushroom Trees turn to stumps in Winter, tappers placed on them produce nothing during that season.

Notes

Processing time calculates differently while sleeping than while awake. 1 hour = 60 minutes when awake but = 100 minutes when sleeping. So if you sleep a whole day, the machine would process 2400 minutes (100 × 24). If you work from 6:00AM till 12:00AM and sleep 6 hours, the machine will process 1680 minutes a day (60 × 18 + 100 × 6). If you work from 6:00AM till 2:00AM and faint 4 hours, the machine will process 1600 mins a day (60 × 20 + 100 × 4).

In addition, when you place the tapper on or after you harvested a product, the time left will intermediately be subtracted by the time already passed this day, start from 00:00 (so past 00:00 will make much less time to be subtracted), and each whole hour passed will be count as 100 minutes. For example, if you harvest an Oak Resin on 6:00AM, the time left will be 12400 minutes(13000 - 600), if on 10:40PM, it will be 10760 minutes (13000 - 2240), and if on 00:30, the time left will be 12970 minutes (13000 - 30).
