Woods

Wood is a basic block harvested from Trees using an Axe. It is used in many crafting Recipes and it can also be placed as a normal block. Wood is one of the few blocks where the inventory sprite is not a square. Wood is harvested from Trees (normal, jungle, and corrupted all work), and is mined with an axe both in tree form and when placed as a block.

An easy way to harvest lots of wood with minimum effort is to plant a long stretch of Jungle Grass on Mud near your house. Jungle trees will grow without you placing Acorns, unlike normal trees. However, keep in mind that the mini-jungle you create can spawn Jungle-specific enemies (such as Jungle Slimes and Jungle Bats). Another Effective (though arguably illegitimate) way to collect wood is to create a new world and cut down it's pre-spawned tree, and then delete the world once you've cut down all of the nearby trees.
