In the expansive world of Minecraft, crafting is an essential skill, and the Caves & Cliffs Update: Part I has brought forth a delightful addition – smooth sandstone. This elegant building block is not crafted using the traditional crafting table but is instead created in the furnace.
Let’s embark on a journey to add the sophisticated touch of smooth sandstone to your inventory with our step-by-step guide.
How to Craft Smooth Sandstone in Survival Mode:
Open the Furnace Menu:
Begin your crafting adventure by opening the furnace. The furnace menu will appear, providing you with the canvas for your next creation.

Add Fuel to the Furnace:
Fuel is the lifeblood of the furnace. Add the fuel of your choice to the bottom fuel box in the furnace. This can be anything from coal to wood planks.

Add Items to Make Smooth Sandstone:
Place the sandstone in the top box of the furnace. As the flames dance and cook the sandstone, observe the transformation taking place. Once the sandstone is successfully cooked or smelted, you’ll find the smooth sandstone awaiting you in the box to the right.
