Cherry Stairs — Minecraft block

Cherry Stairs

Description

Cherry Stairs are a wooden stair block crafted from six Cherry Planks in a staircase pattern, and one craft yields four stairs. Cherry Stairs stack to 64 and count as renewable (obtainable again and again), and a stair drops itself when mined. Hardness is 2 and blast resistance (resistance to explosions) is 3. An axe mines Cherry Stairs fastest, although breaking by hand or with any other tool also works.

Furnaces burn Cherry Stairs as fuel, and each stair smelts 1.5 items. Cherry Stairs also join neighbouring stairs of any material into inner or outer corner shapes automatically. In addition, Cherry Stairs use the cherry wood sound set.

Guide

How to craft and place Cherry Stairs in Minecraft

  1. 1

    Gather the planks

    Collect six Cherry Planks, because one craft consumes all six.

  2. 2

    Fill the crafting grid

    Open a Crafting Table and arrange the planks as a staircase: three in one column, two in the next column, and one in the third column.

  3. 3

    Take the stairs

    Move the four Cherry Stairs from the output slot into the inventory.

  4. 4

    Place upright or upside-down

    Point at the top of a surface to place Cherry Stairs upright, or at the bottom of a block or the upper half of a block side to place Cherry Stairs upside-down.

Save hunger

Walking up Cherry Stairs costs no hunger exhaustion, while each jump costs 0.2, so a stairway is the cheaper way up a tall build.
