Sticks To Planks

by rei

Sticks To Planks adds two crafting recipes that convert sticks into planks and planks into sticks, for NeoForge on 1.21.1 – 1.21.8.

NeoForgeServer required, client optionalMIT LicenseOpen source1.21.1 – 1.21.8

What it does

Crafting recipes in the mod turn nine sticks into five planks, and a 2x2 recipe turns one plank into sticks. A 3x3 recipe turns five planks into sticks, so the two directions cover a wider set of crafting needs than the vanilla recipes alone.

Only the server needs the mod, so players may leave it out. Files are published for NeoForge only, with 8 release versions covering the range. The code is released under the MIT License and is open source, and the public source code and issue tracker are linked from the project.

A configuration page lets server owners change the recipe settings. Sticks To Planks was first published and last updated on 2025-07-20, and its latest NeoForge file is 0.0.2 for 1.21.8.
