FAQ

What tool do I need to mine Smooth Stone Slab?

A wooden pickaxe or better. Mining without a pickaxe yields no drop.

Does Smooth Stone Slab generate naturally?

Rarely. It appears in strongholds, villages, woodland mansions, ruined portals, and trail ruins, but most players craft or stonecut it from smooth stone.

Can I combine two slabs into a full block?

Yes. Placing a slab on top of another half-slab of the same type combines them into a full smooth stone slab block.

What is Smooth Stone Slab used for besides building?

It is a required ingredient for crafting an armor stand, alongside a stick.
