The Wood Barrel is a production block from Ex Nihilo (primarily of use in skyblock maps) that allows the player to create various otherwise unobtainable blocks, such as dirt, soul sand, mossy cobble, and clay, as well as being integral in allowing spawning of Blazes and Endermen.

It is available in two forms: wooden and stone, with the wooden barrel being unable to hold lava for longer than 20 seconds, turning into a lava source block and destroying the barrel if this delay is exceeded.

Automation[edit]

It is possible to do automation with barrels: Output is below the barrel, item input is located on top, and liquid inputs on the sides. Hoppers work fine as well as itemducts and fluiducts.
