Ever wondered how to create a big boom in Minecraft? We’ve got you covered on making TNT!

Creating TNT in Minecraft isn’t just fun; it’s a blast! Let’s dive into how you can make your own.

Quick Answer: Crafting TNT in Minecraft

To create TNT, you need 4 Sand (or Red Sand) blocks and 5 Gunpowder. Place them in a crafting table: gunpowder in the center and each corner, with sand filling the remaining slots.

This setup is like a checkered pattern, with the explosive power of gunpowder mixed with the granularity of sand to bring your TNT to life. Once crafted, you can use it for mining, traps, or just for the fun of seeing things go boom!
