About the Copper Grate

The Copper Grate is a decorative copper block with a square grid of holes running through it. You can see through the holes, which makes it useful for vents, drains, cage walls, and industrial-style detailing.

Key facts:

  • Oxidises through the normal copper stages, changing from orange to green over time.
  • Wax it with honeycomb to freeze its current look, or scrape off oxidation with an axe.
  • It can be waterlogged and still lets light pass through its holes.

It is mostly a building block rather than a redstone component, but the open pattern is handy for layering and adding texture to builds.

How to get the Copper Grate

You can craft four Copper Grates from four copper blocks of the matching oxidation stage in a 2x2 crafting grid. The result keeps the weathering and waxing of the blocks you used. A stonecutter can also turn a single copper block into four grates. You need at least a stone pickaxe to mine one and get the block back.
