About Bamboo Slab
The Bamboo Slab is a half-height building block made from bamboo planks. Like other wooden slabs, it is useful for floors, roofs, ledges, and smooth transitions between block heights.
You can place it on the top or bottom half of a block space. Placing two slabs in the same space merges them into a full bamboo plank block. It has the pale, striped look of bamboo wood, so it pairs well with lighter and natural builds.
How to get Bamboo Slab
You can craft Bamboo Slabs from bamboo planks. Put three bamboo planks in a row in a crafting grid to get six slabs. A stonecutter also turns one bamboo plank into two slabs, which is useful when building in bulk.
Bamboo Slabs do not generate naturally in the world, so crafting is the main way to get them.
