Applewood?
I know we have gotten used to calling it oak, but without it being called oak wood in the tooltip shouldn't it be called applewood now? I am still going to call it oak personally. But then again, I still call Chickens Ducks and Sugar Cane Reeds. I've heard some good arguments either way though, so a note on the page somewhere might be in order.

 * Until there is some official source that calls it one or the other, we may as well leave it the way it is now. Dark wood, birch, and jungle trees are all mentioned by name in patch notes and various tweets by notch and jeb_, but oak trees are never named. No need to go through the trouble of renaming it on the wiki, especially since oak is so common a name. I'd feel free to add a note that some call it apple, though. — MK (c/t) 21:47, 22 March 2012 (UTC)

Should be named "Trunk"
This should be called "trunk"; trees are the structures built of trunk and leaves made by the map. See tree SteGriff 10:38, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

I disambiguated and tidied up. SteGriff 10:53, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

Needs a better image, but I don't know how to make them, so...

Trivia
I just tried the fireplace trick and my log burned up. I have my log completely surrounded by rock other than one face and lit one block in front of it on fire and my log was consumed. --Youassassin 12:47, 3 December 2010 (CST)
 * Sometimes (at least for me) logs/wood will burn up no matter what. You just need to place a new one and try again. It can take a few tries. Jax-Kenobi 15:45, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

I think it should be pointed out that counting the rings on real trees tells you its age in years. in minecraft, doing this won't work. --Rahmspinat 13:41, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

Unstakable
Trunks seems unstackable in a brief "WTF" moment in a smp server. -it is not different trunks. Upgrade?

Wooden Planks
"In Survival mode, wood blocks drop 3 - 5 Wooden Planks when mined."

I'm pretty sure it's gives exactly 4 wooden planks and you don't get them by mining, you get them by crafting :O

The guy that wrote that said about Survival test, an early version of Minecraft. C ali nou - talk × contribs » 10:26, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

Different Types of Wood
Is there any difference between the three types of wood? –The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bubbs3 (Talk&#124;Contribs) Please sign your posts with


 * Nope. They all craft the same Wooden Planks.  The only difference is aesthetic.  Verhalthur (talk)(contribs) 21:00, 18 September 2011 (UTC)

Jungle wood
In patch 12w3a a jungle biome was added, with new tree trunk blocks. I don't have a texture from them that would look any good, so could someone add it? 71.197.221.191 19:04, 19 January 2012 (UTC)Xmzolfm
