How To Craft (& Use) A Brush In Minecraft – Armessa Movie News

Newly added in Minecraft‘s 1.20 Trails and Tales update, the Brush is an indispensable tool for any budding Minecraft archaeologists. The Trails and Tales update introduced archaeology to the game, allowing players to excavate and uncover various items while exploring ruins and other rare structures. Luckily, the Brush is easy to craft and use.

During world creation, the game will automatically generate structures such as ocean ruins, desert pyramids, and a few thriving Minecraft villages. In the 1.20 update, players will find suspicious blocks while exploring some of these structures. These blocks look very similar to normal sand or gravel, but when brushed, players can uncover different items ranging from pottery shards to coal, gold nuggets, and Emeralds.

How To Craft A Brush In Minecraft

Players will need one Feather, one Copper Ingot, and one Stick to craft a Brush in Minecraft. These items should be arranged on a crafting table, top to bottom, as shown above. Sticks are made with two Wooden Plank blocks and are extremely easy and cheap to craft.

To get Copper Ingots, players will need to smelt Raw Copper obtained from mining Copper Ore blocks. Copper Ore can be found in most areas beneath the surface of the Overworld, on roughly the same levels as Minecraft’s Iron Ore blocks. Copper Ore appears as a stone block with orange-green chunks of ore embedded inside it. Players shouldn’t have much trouble finding it, as copper is generally very common and easy to find.

Feathers can be obtained from many different sources, but the easiest way to get them is to kill chickens or parrots. Both of these mobs can drop single or multiple feathers when killed. Chickens are found primarily in grassy or forested biomes, while parrots only spawn in jungle biomes.

How To Use A Brush In Minecraft

Once players have crafted a Brush, they can use it to brush suspicious blocks to excavate items. As of writing, players can find two kinds of suspicious blocks: suspicious sand and suspicious gravel. According to the Minecraft Wiki, suspicious sand blocks will generate in desert ruins, desert wells, and warm ocean ruins. Suspicious gravel will generate in cold ocean ruins and the game’s new trail ruins.

There doesn’t appear to be any visible difference between suspicious and normal blocks. However, players should keep an eye out for sand and gravel when exploring these structures. Using the Brush on a suspicious block will slowly cause items to emerge from inside the block. Items that can appear include coal, dye, decorative items, and rare minerals such as Emeralds and Pottery Sherds.

Essentially, having a Brush is an excellent way for players to get extra items while exploring Minecraft’s most mysterious structures. Unfortunately, players won’t find extremely rare items such as Diamonds by brushing blocks, but the Brush is still an important tool for any Minecraft players who want to make sure they leave no stone unturned while out exploring.
