How to Make a Pick in Minecraft: Step-by-Step Guide

Ever wondered how to get yourself a trusty pickaxe in Minecraft? Whether you’re a new player or need a quick reminder, this guide will walk you through making your very first pick in Minecraft.

Minecraft is all about building and exploring, but to do that, you need the right tools. So, how do you make a pick in this vast blocky world? Let’s dig into it.

Steps to Craft a Pickaxe

Making a pick in Minecraft is simple and one of the first things you should learn. Here’s how:

First, you need to collect some wood from trees. Hit the tree blocks until they drop wood. Then, open your inventory and convert the wood into wooden planks. Create a crafting table by filling all four squares of the 2×2 inventory grid with wooden planks. Place the crafting table and open it to see the 3×3 crafting grid.

Now, you’ll create some sticks by placing one wooden plank over another in the crafting grid. With sticks and planks ready, place two sticks vertically in the middle of the grid and three wooden planks across the top row. Voilà! You’ve crafted a wooden pickaxe. This basic tool can mine stone and coal, but for anything else, you’ll need to upgrade to a metal pickaxe by using the same pattern but substituting wooden planks with iron ingots, gold, or diamonds.
