Extra Chests
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
Extra Chests
Overview
Adds a chest and a trapped chest for every vanilla wood type, so your storage matches your builds.
Works like the normal chest (double chests too). Trapped versions send redstone when opened.
Minecraft 1.21.5
Beta Release
My excuse to practice block entity creation and texturing.
