Usage

Planks can be used to build structures, craft ingredients, or as Minecraft:fuel for smelting. Crimson planks and warped planks, however, cannot be used as fuel.

For other products, planks of different types can be mixed freely and the wood types in the product is indeterminate. Crimson and warped planks cannot be used to make boats.<ref>Template:Bug</ref> Template:Crafting usage
