Stack calculation
Each stack holds 64 blocks. To find stacks needed:
- Divide block count by 64
- Round up to whole stacks
- Example: 150 blocks ÷ 64 = 2.34 → 3 stacks (192 blocks, 42 extra)
Material gathering tips
- Concrete: sand + gravel + dye → smelt in furnace
- Wool: shear sheep, white wool can be dyed
- Stone: mine underground, silk touch for smooth stone
- Organize by color in labeled chests
- Build in a flat area, mark corners first
