FAQ
What tool do I need to mine Waxed Cut Copper Slab?
A stone pickaxe or better. Mining without one destroys the block with no drop.
Why wax a cut copper slab?
Waxing locks the slab's current oxidation stage (normal, exposed, weathered, or oxidized) so it never changes color again, which matters for builds mixing multiple patina stages.
Can two slabs be combined into a full block?
Yes. Placing two Waxed Cut Copper Slabs of the same stage in the same space combines them into a Waxed Cut Copper block.
Does Fortune increase the drop count?
No. It always drops exactly one slab regardless of enchantments, as long as a stone pickaxe or better is used.
