Minecraft:Planks

From SAS Gaming Wiki
Revision as of 20:45, 9 April 2026 by SyncBot (talk | contribs) (Fix template calls: add MC/ prefix)

Template:For Template:Infobox block Planks are common Minecraft:blocks used as building blocks and in Minecraft:crafting recipes. They are usually one of the first things that a player crafts in Survival mode. There are currently twelve variants of planks, which can be differentiated into three categories: Overworld planks made from tree logs, bamboo planks made from blocks of bamboo, and nonflammable Nether planks made from huge fungus stems.

Planks can be broken by hand, but using an Minecraft:axe speeds up the process. Script error: No such module "breaking row".

Usage

Planks can be used to build structures, craft ingredients, or as fuel for smelting. Crimson planks and warped planks, however, cannot be used as fuel; the player has to convert them into tools, sticks, or other things.

Crafting ingredient

Planks are used in many crafting recipes. Minecraft:Stairs, Minecraft:slabs, Minecraft:fences, fence gates, Minecraft:doors, Minecraft:trapdoors, pressure plates, Minecraft:buttons, Minecraft:signs, and Minecraft:boats must be crafted from planks of the same type, and the crafted result depends on the type used. 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

Fuel

Minecraft:Overworld planks can be used as a fuel in Minecraft:furnaces, smelting 1.5 Minecraft:items per Minecraft:block.

Nether planks (crimson and warped planks) cannot be used as fuel, although they can be crafted into sticks, which can be used as fuel.

Repairing

Planks are the repair items for the wood tier, and thus can be used to repair the following items in an Minecraft:anvil:

Sulfur cube

Template:Message box Template:Article other Sulfur cubes have the ability to absorb planks, either through picking them up or being interacted with them. This provides the rubber ball/bouncy effect to the mob when hitting it.

Trivia

  • To craft each recipe once, a player would need 152 planks, including 10 for the recipes that require sticks, and 6 for wooden slabs. To craft all the other 10 wood variants of all recipes, the player would need an extra 384 planks, plus another 36 planks for the 72 sticks needed to make the Minecraft:fence, fence gate, and Minecraft:sign variants, adding up to a total of 572 planks.
