About Red Sandstone Slab

The Red Sandstone Slab is a half-height block made from red sandstone. It is mainly a building block, useful for floors, roofs, paths, and detailed builds where a full block feels too bulky.

Key facts:

  • Can be placed on the lower or upper half of a block space.
  • Two slabs placed in the same space combine to look like a full red sandstone block.
  • Does not fall like sand or red sand.
  • Can be waterlogged, so it works well underwater.
  • Requires a pickaxe to mine.

How to get Red Sandstone Slab

You can craft Red Sandstone Slabs by placing three red sandstone blocks in a row, which gives six slabs. You can also use a stonecutter to cut red sandstone or smooth red sandstone into two slabs per block. Red sandstone itself is crafted from four red sand or mined in badlands. The slabs are not found naturally in chests, so crafting or stonecutting is the usual route.
