Polished Cut and Small Blackstone Brick Stairs, Slabs, and Walls Guide

guide

Polished cut and small/cut blackstone brick stairs, slabs, and walls are decorative building pieces added by the Create: Design n' Decor mod, and this guide covers how to obtain each one. Create: Design n' Decor is a Create addon centered on quality-of-life decoration features. It expands on Create's existing decoration options while responding to community feedback, and it includes variants of standard blocks such as new crushing wheels, containers, and other blocks meant to fit alongside Create's style. The blackstone pieces below follow that same idea: they give you more shapes and textures to build with. Every recipe here starts from Cut Blackstone, so gather that first.

Polished Cut Blackstone

Polished Cut Blackstone is the base block for most of the polished cut set. You can make it by stonecutting Cut Blackstone into Polished Cut Blackstone. There is also a crafting route: combining two Polished Cut Blackstone Slab in a shapeless recipe returns one Polished Cut Blackstone. That second method lets you turn slabs back into the full block if you change your mind about a build.

Polished Cut Blackstone Stairs

Polished Cut Blackstone Stairs can be produced two ways. The crafting recipe is shaped and uses six Polished Cut Blackstone to yield the stairs. Alternatively, you can stonecut Cut Blackstone directly into Polished Cut Blackstone Stairs, skipping the intermediate polished block entirely. The stonecutting route is useful when you already have a stock of cut blackstone on hand.

Polished Cut Blackstone Slab

Polished Cut Blackstone Slab follows the same pattern. The shaped crafting recipe takes three Polished Cut Blackstone and produces the slab. You can also stonecut Cut Blackstone straight into Polished Cut Blackstone Slab. Because two slabs combine back into one Polished Cut Blackstone, slabs are flexible to work with in both directions.

Polished Cut Blackstone Wall

Polished Cut Blackstone Wall is made with a shaped crafting recipe using six Polished Cut Blackstone. It can also be stonecut from Cut Blackstone directly. As with the stairs and slab, the stonecutting option means you never need to craft the polished block first if you would rather work from cut blackstone.

Small Blackstone Bricks

Small Blackstone Bricks are a separate texture in the same family. They can be stonecut from Cut Blackstone. In a shapeless crafting recipe, two Small Blackstone Brick Slab combine into Small Blackstone Bricks.

Cut Blackstone Bricks

Cut Blackstone Bricks are another brick variant. Stonecutting Cut Blackstone produces them. A shapeless crafting recipe combines two Cut Blackstone Brick Slab into Cut Blackstone Bricks.

Choosing a Method

For every piece listed above, stonecutting from Cut Blackstone is available, and most also have a shaped or shapeless crafting recipe. In practice this means you can decide per project whether to craft the polished block first or cut everything from raw cut blackstone. The slab-to-block recipes for Polished Cut Blackstone, Small Blackstone Bricks, and Cut Blackstone Bricks give you a way to consolidate leftover slabs into full blocks. Plan your material amounts around whichever route suits your current inventory, and the set will cover stairs, slabs, and walls for consistent blackstone detailing in your builds.
