Quick Steps to Craft a Shovel
Creating a shovel in Minecraft is simple. You need two items: sticks and either wood planks, cobblestone, iron ingots, gold ingots, or diamonds. The material you choose affects your shovel’s durability and effectiveness.
First, open your crafting table to access the 3×3 crafting grid. Place a stick in the center slot of the grid and the second-to-last slot. Then, put your chosen material (wood, cobblestone, iron, gold, or diamond) in the top-center slot. That’s it! You’ve crafted a shovel.
