FAQ

What tool do I need to mine a Polished Blackstone Button?

Any tool works, though a pickaxe is fastest. Unlike the solid blackstone blocks, the button drops itself regardless of tool.

How long does the button stay powered?

Exactly one second (10 redstone ticks) after being pressed or struck by an arrow or wind charge.

Can I waterlog a Polished Blackstone Button?

Not in Java Edition. Bedrock Edition allows the button to be waterlogged.

Where do I get Polished Blackstone to craft it?

Craft polished blackstone from blackstone at a crafting table, or gather blackstone directly from Nether basalt deltas and ruined portals.
