'''Planks''' are common [[block]]s used as building blocks and in [[crafting]] recipes. They are one of the first things that a [[player]] can craft in [[Survival]] and [[Adventure]] modes. There are eleven 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.

== Obtaining ==

=== Breaking ===

Planks can be broken by hand, but using an [[axe]] speeds up the process.
{{breaking row|horizontal=1|Planks|Axe}}

=== Natural generation ===

{{BlockSprite|Oak Planks|text=Oak planks}} generate as part of:
*[[Mineshaft]]s, where they are used as beams supported by oak [[fence]]s and as a platform where [[air]] is beneath.
*[[Plains]] [[village]]s, where they are used for various structures including walls, roofs, and floors of many buildings, as well as paths over [[water]].
*[[Stronghold]]s, where they are used for floors and pillars in the library and storage rooms.
*[[Woodland mansion]]s
*[[Shipwreck]]s

{{BlockSprite|Spruce Planks|text=Spruce planks}} generate as part of: 
*[[Swamp hut]]s, where they are used as a primary building material.
* [[Taiga]], [[snowy tundra]], and [[snowy taiga]]{{only|BE|short=1}} villages, as a part of several buildings.
*[[Ocean ruins]]
*[[Shipwreck]]s

{{BlockSprite|Birch Planks|text=Birch planks}} generate as part of:

=== Entity loot ===
[[Boat]] and [[boat with chest]] drop 3 planks of the corresponding type‌ when falling for exactly 12, 13, 49, 51, 111, 114, 198, 202, 310, or 315 blocks<ref>{{bug|MC-119369}}</ref>.

== Usage ==
Planks can be used for building structures, as crafting ingredients, and as fuel. Crimson planks and warped planks, however, cannot be used as fuel; the player have to convert them into tools, sticks, or other things.

=== Crafting ingredient ===
Planks are used in many crafting recipes. [[Door]]s, [[fence]]s, [[fence gate]]s, [[slab]]s, [[stairs]], [[boat]]s, [[trapdoor]]s, [[pressure plate]]s, and [[button]]s 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>{{bug|MC-170868|||Invalid}}</ref>
{{crafting usage|Planks,Overworld Planks,Nether Planks,Oak Planks,Spruce Planks,Birch Planks,Jungle Planks,Acacia Planks,Dark Oak Planks,Bamboo Planks,Crimson Planks,Warped Planks|match=end}}

=== Fuel ===
[[Overworld]] planks can be used as a [[fuel]] in [[furnace]]s, [[smelting]] 1.5 [[item]]s per [[block]]. [[Nether]] planks (crimson and warped planks) cannot be used as [[fuel]].

=== Repairing ===
Planks are the repair items for the wood [[tier]], and thus can be used to [[item repair|repair]] the following items in an [[anvil]]: 
*{{ItemLink|Wooden sword}}
*{{ItemLink|Wooden pickaxe}}
*{{ItemLink|Wooden axe}}
* {{ItemLink|Wooden shovel}}
*{{ItemLink|Wooden hoe}}

{{History||1.8|snap=14w10a|Planks with [[Java Edition data value/Pre-flattening/Block IDs/Before 14w25a|numerical metadata variants]] 6 through 15, which are inaccessible through normal gameplay, now have [[Missing model|no model]] [[File:Missing Model JE2.png|32px]] rather than appearing identical to oak planks.}}
{{History|||snap=14w25a|Planks are now defined via [[block states]] rather than by numerical metadata. Prior to this version, the numerical metadata variants of planks were as follows:

== 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 [[fence]], [[fence gate]], and [[sign]] variants, adding up to a total of 572 planks.
