How to Make Oak Shelf in Minecraft

Oak Shelf is a wooden storage block from the shelf family added in Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.9 and Bedrock Edition 1.21.111. The recipe turns six Stripped Oak Logs into six Oak Shelves: three logs across the top row of a crafting table, three across the bottom row, and an empty middle row. Oak Shelf breaks fastest with an axe, has hardness 2 and blast resistance 3, stacks to 64, and counts as a renewable block. Oak Shelf is flammable and can catch fire from nearby lava.

A placed Oak Shelf holds up to three item stacks and displays every stored item on the front, similar to an Item Frame. Each Oak Shelf slot fits one full stack of a stackable item or a single non-stackable item, and the exact number of items is never shown. Without a redstone signal, interacting with an Oak Shelf slot swaps the main-hand item with the slot contents. Under redstone power, one Oak Shelf swaps all three slots with the three rightmost hotbar slots, two connected shelves cover six slots, and three connected shelves cover all nine. A Redstone Comparator reading an Oak Shelf from behind outputs signal 1 for the left slot, 2 for the middle, and 4 for the right, up to 7 total. Hoppers and Droppers load an Oak Shelf automatically, and a Hopper placed underneath pulls items back out.
