Oak Log is a fundamental building block in Minecraft, found naturally in oak trees across various biomes. It is primarily used for crafting planks, which serve as a base material for many crafting recipes. Oak logs can also be smelted into charcoal, used as fuel, or stripped using an axe to produce stripped oak logs. They are a key resource for construction, tool-making, and decoration. Oak logs can generate in villages, shipwrecks, and trial chambers. When placed under a note block, they produce a 'bass' sound.
