About Cut Sandstone

Cut Sandstone is a decorative building block made from sandstone, with a smoother, more even face than the raw block. It is used mainly for desert-style buildings, floors, paths, and trim, where a tidy stone look is wanted.

Key facts:

  • Works like a stone block: mine it with a pickaxe and it drops itself.
  • No redstone behaviour or special interactions.
  • Can be crafted into cut sandstone slabs and stairs.

How to get Cut Sandstone

You craft cut sandstone from four sandstone blocks in a 2x2 grid, which gives four cut sandstone. A stonecutter is often easier: one sandstone becomes one cut sandstone, useful when you need just a few pieces. Some desert structures such as villages and temples also contain cut sandstone, but in survival you will usually craft it yourself.
