Where to Find Crafting Table
All Overworld biomes is the one place tied to Crafting Table, so that is where a trip for Crafting Table goes. The first utility block most players craft; opens a 3x3 crafting grid. Any type of planks works (Oak, Spruce, Birch, etc.). Crafting Table does not spawn naturally in the world or generate in chests as standard loot: it is something you make at a Inventory Crafting, so the practical question is where to gather its ingredients rather than where to find the finished item.

Best Way to Get Crafting Table
The fastest route to Crafting Table runs through the Inventory Crafting, with Oak Planks. Gather those 1 part once and Crafting Table stops being something you look for. The shopping list before you can craft Crafting Table runs to 1 line: Oak Planks (crafted from any logs). Always carry one in your inventory for field crafting. With 64 Crafting Table to a slot, a chest holds 1728 of them and a double chest 3456, which is more than most builds will ever ask of you. the original 1.0 release is where Crafting Table entered the game, and it has worked the same way ever since, so nothing here depends on which update you are on. As a utility block, Crafting Table is the sort of thing you place once and use constantly, so most players craft an early one and add more as their base grows.

A crafting table is four planks and the first thing anyone builds, but the practical note is that villages are full of them: a village raid for a table, a furnace and a bed skips the first ten minutes of a new world entirely.
What to watch out for with Crafting Table
Four planks, and the whole game opens up. What most players miss is that the table can be placed anywhere, including in a boat trip or halfway up a mountain, so carrying one costs a single inventory slot and saves the walk home more often than any other item.
