Wood is a type of block that is generally obtained by cutting down trees using an axe or a chainsaw.

There are 10 different types of Wood. Crafting recipes that include Any Wood as an ingredient can use any type except Dynasty Wood. Some resulting items may differ in appearance depending on Wood type used, while providing exactly the same use.

	Rich MahoganyInternal Item ID: 620		Mahogany tree
	EbonwoodInternal Item ID: 619		Ebonwood tree
	ShadewoodInternal Item ID: 911		Shadewood tree

	Spooky WoodInternal Item ID: 1729		Splinterling Mourning Wood
	Ash Wood(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions)Internal Item ID: 5215		Ash tree(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions)

Each type of Wood has a respective:

• Sword, bow, and hammer (except Spooky and Dynasty)
• Armor set (except Dynasty)
• Furniture set

Pine Tree Block(Desktop, Console, Old-gen console and Mobile versions), while only loosely defined as a Wood, can be used to craft some wooden furniture (specifically pine wood). It however cannot be used for recipes that require Any Wood.

Cactus, Pumpkin, Bamboo, and Glowing Mushroom display some Wood-like properties, especially in the sense that they are gathered from background plants cut with an axe (or pickaxe in the case of Bamboo). Cactus, Pumpkin, Bamboo, and Glowing Mushroom cannot be used in recipes calling for Any Wood, however they do have recipes for furniture, tools, and weapons much like those of normal Wood. Gem trees, while having tree-like properties, drop stone and their respective gem.

Some Wood types are found placed in other forms. For example, Underground Cabins generally use Wood corresponding to their biome (i.e. Rich Mahogany in the Jungle, Boreal in the Snow biome, normal Wood basically everywhere else). Living Trees and Living Mahogany Trees are made of Living Wood and Rich Mahogany, respectively.

Tips

See also: Guide:Farming Resources

• Creating a new world and cutting down the numerous trees near the spawn point is an effective way of obtaining large amounts of Wood.
• A highly effective way to farm wood is to use the Axe of Regrowth(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions).
• Wood has no sell value on its own, but can contribute to a variety of crafted items that can be sold. Crafting any Wood into Kegs will yield about 8.57 CC per Wood or 85 SC63 CC per 1000 pieces of Wood. However, much greater profits (about 5 GC per 1000) can be had by adding one Gel for each six Wood, and crafting Candelabras. There are some conditions here: Plain Wood will require a Living Loom, Boreal Wood will require Ice Blocks (as many as the Gel) as well, and Dynasty Wood can do better elsewhere; see the making money guide for full details.
• None of the wood block types are vulnerable to biome spread; ebonwood/shadewood/pearlwood will not spread the Corruption/Crimson/Hallow.

Trivia

• Wood armor sets are of the few that can be crafted at a Work Bench, along with Cactus, Necro, Pink Snow, and Pumpkin.
