About Cut Copper

Cut Copper is a decorative building block with a carved, lined texture. It is part of the copper family and slowly oxidises over time, shifting from shiny orange to green through four stages: normal, exposed, weathered, and oxidised.

Key facts:

Purely decorative, with no redstone or light behaviour.
Changes appearance as it ages unless you wax it.
Wax with honeycomb to freeze its current stage.
Scrape wax or oxidation off with an axe to move a stage back.

Because it oxidises, Cut Copper is useful for roofs and builds where a gradual colour change fits the design.

How to get Cut Copper

You get Cut Copper by crafting or stonecutting copper blocks. Four copper blocks in a crafting grid make four Cut Copper. A stonecutter can also turn a single copper block into four Cut Copper, which is the more efficient route once you have one. You need a stone pickaxe or better to mine copper blocks in the first place.
