Description

Block of Resin is a decorative and storage block added in Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.4 "The Garden Awakens" (Bedrock Edition 1.21.50), crafted by filling a 3×3 crafting grid with 9 Resin Clumps. One inventory slot of Block of Resin stores 9 Resin Clumps, just as a Block of Iron stores iron ingots. Placing Block of Resin alone in a crafting grid returns exactly 9 Resin Clumps, so the conversion is fully reversible with zero material loss. With a hardness of 0 and a blast resistance of 0, Block of Resin breaks instantly under any tool or a bare hand and always drops itself, even under the Mining Fatigue effect. Block of Resin is not flammable and does not catch fire from lava. Resin Clumps drip from Creaking Hearts when a Creaking takes damage, which makes Block of Resin a renewable resource.

The orange and amber tones of Block of Resin suit the Pale Garden biome aesthetic and warm-toned decorative builds, pairing naturally with Resin Brick Stairs, Resin Brick Slabs, and Resin Brick Walls. Two Pale Oak Logs combined with 1 Block of Resin craft a Creaking Heart. Instant breaking and a reliable self-drop make Block of Resin a convenient scaffolding block for quick temporary structures.
