This Minecraft tutorial explains how to craft a stripped oak log with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.

In Minecraft, a stripped oak log is an item that you can not make with a crafting table or furnace. Instead, you need to find and gather this item in the game.

Let’s explore how to add a stripped oak log to your inventory.

Where to find a Stripped Oak Log in Creative Mode

Minecraft Java Edition (PC/Mac)

Here is where you can find a stripped oak log in the Creative Inventory menu:

Platform	Version(s)	Creative Menu Location
Java Edition (PC/Mac)	1.13 – 1.19.3	Building Blocks

Platform is the platform that applies.

Version(s) is the Minecraft version numbers where the item can be found in the menu location listed (we have tested and confirmed this version number).

Creative Menu Location is the location of the item in the Creative Inventory menu.

How to get a Stripped Oak Log in Survival Mode

You can add a stripped oak log to your inventory in Survival mode by stripping the bark from an oak log with an axe. So, let’s get started!

1. Find an Oak Tree

First, you need to find an oak tree in your Minecraft world. Oak trees are usually found in the Forest, Windswept Hills, Swamp or Mesa Plateau biomes.

2. Hold an Axe

Next, you will need to select an axe in your hotbar. These are the axes you can choose from:

How to make a Diamond Axe
How to make a Golden Axe
How to make a Iron Axe
How to make a Stone Axe
How to make a Wooden Axe
How to make a Netherite Axe

In this example, we are going to select a diamond axe.

3. Strip the Bark with the Axe

Now, you need to strip the bark from an oak log with your axe. The game control to strip the bark with an axe depends on the version of Minecraft:

For Java Edition (PC/Mac), right click on the oak log.
For Pocket Edition (PE), you tap on the oak log.
For Xbox 360 and Xbox One, press the LT button on the Xbox controller.
For PS3 and PS4, press the L2 button on the PS controller.
For Wii U, press the ZL button on the gamepad.
For Nintendo Switch, press the ZL button on the controller.
For Windows 10 Edition, right click on the oak log.
For Education Edition, right click on the oak log.

You should now see the bark removed from the oak log. This turns the oak log into a stripped oak log.

4. Chop down the Stripped Oak Log

The game control to chop down the stripped oak log depends on the version of Minecraft:

For Java Edition (PC/Mac), left click and hold on the stripped oak log.
For Pocket Edition (PE), you tap and hold on the stripped oak log.
For Xbox 360 and Xbox One, press and hold the RT button on the Xbox controller.
For PS3 and PS4, press and hold the R2 button on the PS controller.
For Wii U, press and hold the ZR button on the gamepad.
For Nintendo Switch, press and hold the ZR button on the controller.
For Windows 10 Edition, left click and hold on the stripped oak log.
For Education Edition, left click and hold on the stripped oak log.

You will need to continue to chop until the stripped oak log drops from the tree.

5. Pick up the Stripped Oak Log

Make sure you pick up the stripped oak log before it disappears.

Once you pick up the stripped oak log, it will appear in your hotbar.

A stripped oak log is a useful item and should be kept in your inventory to be used later.
