Wood or hyphae is a block that has the log's "bark" texture on all six sides. It comes in 8 types: oak, spruce, birch, jungle, acacia, dark oak, crimson, and warped.

Stripped wood or stripped hyphae is a variant obtained when any axe is used on wood or hyphae respectively.

Obtaining

Breaking

Wood and hyphae can be broken by hand, but using an axe speeds up the process.

Hardness	2

Default	3
Wooden	1.5
Stone	0.75

Natural generation

Oak wood and stripped oak wood generate in plains villages.

Acacia wood and stripped acacia wood generate in savanna villages.

Spruce wood and stripped spruce wood generate in snowy tundra, snowy taiga and taiga villages.

Crafting

Wood or hyphae can be crafted out of four matching logs or stems, yielding three wood or hyphae as a result.

Post-generation

Stripped wood and hyphae

Using an axe on wood or hyphae turns it into stripped wood or hyphae, which act the same as regular wood or hyphae.

Usage

Wood or hyphae can be used as a decorative block in place of normal logs or stems.
