Description

Stripped Pale Oak Log is the bark-free version of the Pale Oak Log, made by using an axe on a Pale Oak Log to strip away the bark and reveal a smooth pale interior. It was added with the Pale Garden biome in Minecraft 1.21.4. Place four Stripped Pale Oak Logs in a 2x2 grid to craft three Stripped Pale Oak Wood, or turn each log into four Pale Oak Planks. Six of these logs plus two Chains craft six Pale Oak Hanging Signs. Like every log, it can be placed along three axes — facing up-down, north-south, or east-west — to match the grain of your build. It is flammable, so keep it away from lava and fire. The block works in both Java 1.21.4 and Bedrock Edition.
