Wood Cutter
by SJAR
Wood Cutter lets the Stonecutter produce wood items from logs through a data pack that runs on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt.
What it does
Wood Cutter is a data pack that adds Stonecutter recipes for cutting logs into wood items. A config option can turn off the vanilla crafting table recipes for those items, for example forcing fences to come only from the Stonecutter, and plank and stair yields can be adjusted for balance. The mod is installed by dragging it into the world's datapacks folder, then running a reload or restarting the world. Recipe book previews need a reload to update after a change.
The mod is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with Fabric API needed only on Fabric, and it requires no other mods. Files cover 17 release versions 1.13 – 1.16.5, and the latest build, 2.2+mod for 1.16.5, was released on 2025-11-22. Only the server needs to run it, while players can join without installing it. The code is released under the MIT License, so it can be edited and shared freely, and issues can be reported on the project's public source code.
