Bark Blocks
by UwUnotFurry
Bark Blocks adds bark blocks that can be crafted from stripped logs with silk touch, plus hollow bark variants for each wood type.
What it does
Players strip a log with a silk touch tool to obtain the bark block matching its wood type. Bark blocks can be hollowed along one axis, leaving a two-pixel-thick ring, and a hollow bark block can be entered and crawled through while waterlogged. Since Minecraft 1.21.5, fallen trees generate in Java Edition, and one in five of them is replaced with the hollow variant. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Fabric API is required. Builds cover 1.14.4 – 1.21.11 for Fabric, and the latest file is for 1.21.11. The code is public, but the license is Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial No Derivatives 4.0, so it is not open source.

What the author says
This mod adds bark blocks, a new type of wooden block. When you strip a log with silk touch, you now get a bark block of the corresponding wood type. Bark blocks are hollow through one axis, leaving only a two-pixel-thick ring. As they are hollow, you can stand or crawl inside them and they can also be waterlogged…
