Craft Bedrock
by dummertom
Craft Bedrock lets players make bedrock from nine obsidian blocks, a recipe that vanilla Minecraft does not provide.
What it does
Bedrock is normally unbreakable, immovable and placed only by the world generator at the bottom of the world, so it cannot be collected or relocated in survival. Craft Bedrock adds an advancement and a crafting recipe that turn nine obsidian into a bedrock block, so the block can be obtained through play and placed where a player chooses. The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing it.
Files are published for Forge 1.20.1 only, with version 1.0.0 dated 2025-06-04. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.

What the author says
Bedrock is usually the one block you can’t break, move, or place in survival. It just sits there at the bottom of the world, untouchable. But now, you’ve found a way around that. By putting together 9 obsidian, you crafted a block that was never meant to be crafted.
