Players will get to play around with another new wood set with bamboo wood. This set can use to create all of the wood variants and will be added with the 1.20 update. Players can create this wood set from bamboo, which already exists within Minecraft <\/em>and can be found throughout the jungle biome. <\/p>
As is the case with all other wood sets in Minecraft<\/em>, the bamboo wood set includes a wide variety of assets that can be created from the base bamboo plank block.<\/p>
Bamboo planks can be made from four bamboo.<\/li>
Bamboo stairs can be created from six bamboo planks.<\/li>
Bamboo slabs can be crafted from three bamboo planks.<\/li>
Bamboo signs can be made from six bamboo planks and one stick.<\/li>
Bamboo doors can be created from six bamboo planks.<\/li>
Bamboo fences can be crafted from four bamboo planks and two sticks. <\/li>
Bamboo trapdoors can be made from six bamboo planks.<\/li>
Bamboo fence gates can be crafted from two bamboo planks and four sticks.<\/li>
Bamboo pressure plates can be created from two bamboo planks.<\/li>
Bamboo buttons can be made from one bamboo plank. <\/li> <\/ul> Image via Mojang<\/figcaption><\/figure>
Unlike all other wood sets, the bamboo set includes a unique block type called the bamboo mosaic. This intricate block has a unique design and can be crafted into three block types. <\/p>
Bamboo mosaics can be created from two bamboo slabs. <\/li>
Bamboo mosaic slabs can be crafted from two bamboo mosaics.<\/li>
Bamboo mosaic stairs can be made from six bamboo mosaics. <\/li> <\/ul> Image via Mojang<\/figcaption><\/figure>
Bamboo currently has very limited uses but will become much more usable with an entire wood set and a few extra special blocks that can be created from it. <\/p>
Rafts in Minecraft<\/em><\/h3>
While all other wood sets in Minecraft <\/em>can be used to construct the same type of boat in different wood variants, the bamboo wood set is a bit different. Instead of a boat, players can use bamboo to craft a new type of water transportation called a raft. <\/p>
Everything about rafts functions the same as regular boats but offers players a new, more adventurous look and feel for their water expeditions. Just like boats, rafts can also be constructed to hold a chest. <\/p>

Chiseled bookshelves in Minecraft<\/em><\/h3>
A new bookshelf type will be added with the next Minecraft <\/em>update. This block is called chiseled bookshelves and is both fully interactable and customizable. <\/p>
Players can place one to six books in each chiseled bookshelf block and watch as the bookshelf changes its appearance. Taking books off the shelf will also affect how it looks.<\/p>
Image via Mojang<\/figcaption><\/figure>
Any kind of book can be stored within the chiseled bookshelves. This includes regular books, enchanted books, and books with quills, which means players can now effectively journal about their Minecraft<\/em> adventures before storing them away in a chiseled bookshelf to revisit later. <\/p>
Chiseled bookshelves are also compatible with redstone. This allows players to create unique build features like hidden bookshelf doors or even use redstone to figure out which book was the last one that they interacted with. <\/p>
Image via Mojang<\/figcaption><\/figure>
This new block type also has a few unique wood patterns surrounding the bookshelf itself, which gives it further function beyond being an interactable bookshelf. The developers showcased an example of how the unique designs around the chiseled bookshelf could be used to create floor and wall patterns during the Minecraft <\/em>Live 2022 event as can be seen above. <\/p>
