To create a real-life facsimile of the material in Minecraft, you’ll need to have access to a source for water. It is typically advised that you use a pond or a well with bedrock below in order to place water blocks in the way that allow for flowing liquids. When constructing your cinder block, make sure it’s two blocks high and repeatedly tap one of the top corners with your shovel. Once all four corners are worn away, you can break up this chunk into smaller pieces to make it easier to transport and set up. In order for concrete to function properly inside Minecraft, heat must be applied during its creation process. This can be accomplished by building a fire beneath the cinder block during construction. When the fire is extinguished, cover it with dirt. Sweep away any remaining ashes and you’re all set to begin using your concrete blocks!
If the concrete has been created without a nearby source of water then you’ll need to place water into the top of one of your blocks in order for it to function in Minecraft. It is also advised that you leave at least one side open so that when water is added, it has room to flow through the block in order to create an acceptable level of realism.
Once you have made your cinder block in minecraft, you’ll need some kind of soft clay in order create real-life soft clay. This can be accomplished by smelting together dirt and water. Allow this to cool, and then remove it from the furnace while wearing a pair of leather gloves. Weave the resulting material into a crafting pattern and add this to your inventory. This type of crafting pattern is known as an unfinished product and won’t display a crafting recipe on its own. You’ll need to add an appropriate crafting table in order to see what it’s meant for making.
Light up the bottom of your cinder block with fire by placing blocks beneath it while holding flint and steel in your active hand. Once the block is lit, it will begin to smolder. Place some kind of cinder blocks on top of it to stop the flammable material from burning any further. As you place the blocks, be certain that there are no gaps in between them for air to flow through.
You won’t want your concrete inside of a crafting grid because it will not take any smithing or brewing materials. Minecraft uses enchanting tables for this purpose, so make sure you have one enabled if necessary before placing your cement blocks inside of you’re house. All that’s left to do now is wait for it to cool down. However, you can speed up the process by placing ice, stone or snow blocks below the concrete that will cause it to cool down faster.
When it has cooled down, destroy any remaining blocks of cinder block and clear away your workspace. Your concrete is now ready for what you’ll need to do next. However, make sure you’ve left enough room on the bottom of it so that when water is added to it (using a bucket), the water will flow through the base. You want your concrete supply to have enough space underneath so that the water doesn’t just sit on top of it!
