# BetterTimber
\n  <\/p>\n
Just a simple lumberjack plugin that allows players to chop down an entire tree with just breaking one log, if they have a special axe. Completely customizable.<\/p>\n
### Preview

\n### How it works
\nIf a player (by default, change in config possible) has a **netherite axe** with **Efficiency V**, **Fortune III**, **Unbreaking III** and **Mending**, it is possible for him to cut down trees by breaking only one block. <\/p>\n
**It is also possible to use all axes of any type and whether they are enchanted or not.**
\n### Features
\n– Automatically recognises world-generated trees or logs
\n– Also works with 2×2 or larger trees
\n– Built-in animation to keep the vanilla survival style
\n– Correct durability measurement. Either per tree or per log
\n– The speed of the animation can depend on the type of axe
\n– Sound effect to make “tree felling” more realistic and not jaded
\n– Does not destroy self-placed logs or houses with logs
\n– Sneaking does not trigger the lumberjack animation
\n– Completely customizable
\n– Choose your own axe and enchantments
\n– Disable the sneaking feature and change the message<\/p>\n
### Permissons
\nNo permission is required for the players. All players who have the correct netherite axe have the lumberjack effect.<\/p>\n
