Bundle Recipe and Materials
To craft a bundle in Minecraft, you’ll need 6 rabbit hide and 2 string arranged in a specific pattern on your crafting table. Place the rabbit hide in the top row, middle-left and middle-right positions, and bottom row. Put one string in the center slot and another in the middle-bottom position. This creates a handy storage item that can hold up to 64 items regardless of their individual stack sizes.
Getting Rabbit Hide
Rabbit hide drops from rabbits when killed, but the drop rate isn’t guaranteed. You’ll typically get 0-1 rabbit hide per rabbit, so you might need to hunt several rabbits to gather enough materials. Rabbits spawn in various biomes including deserts, flower forests, and taigas. They’re relatively fast and can be tricky to catch, so consider using a sword with the Looting enchantment to increase your chances of getting hide.
How Bundles Work
Bundles function differently from regular chests or shulker boxes. Instead of having individual slots, they use a capacity system where each item takes up space based on its normal stack size. For example, a stack of 64 dirt takes up the entire bundle, while 64 ender pearls (which normally stack to 16) would take up the full capacity as four separate groups. You can mix different items as long as their combined “weight” doesn’t exceed the bundle’s limit.
Using Your Bundle
Right-click to add items to your bundle, and right-click while holding the bundle to remove the most recently added item. You can also use Ctrl+Q (or Cmd+Q on Mac) to drop the entire bundle’s contents at once. The bundle’s tooltip shows exactly what’s inside, making it perfect for organizing miscellaneous items during mining trips or building projects.
Bundle Availability
Bundles are currently available in Java Edition snapshots and experimental features, but they haven’t been fully released in the main game yet. You’ll need to enable experimental features in your world settings or play on snapshot versions to access this crafting recipe. The feature has been in development for some time as Mojang refines the mechanics and user interface.
