Polished Cut and Small Netherrack Brick Building Blocks in Create: Design n' Decor
Create: Design n' Decor adds polished cut netherrack and small or cut netherrack brick building blocks that expand the decoration options available alongside Create. These blocks cover the familiar building shapes — full blocks, stairs, slabs, and walls — and every one of them can be produced either through stonecutting or through crafting, so you can pick the method that suits the materials you have on hand.
What These Blocks Are
Create: Design n' Decor is a Create addon focused on quality-of-life decoration features, expanding on Create's base decoration ability while responding to community feedback. It includes variants of normal blocks, such as new crushing wheels, containers, and extra blocks chosen to fit in with Create.
The netherrack family covered here follows that same idea: rather than a single plain block, you get a set of related shapes and brick patterns that share a consistent look.
Polished Cut Netherrack — the base full block of the polished cut set
Polished Cut Netherrack Stairs — the stair shape of the polished cut set
Polished Cut Netherrack Slab — the slab shape of the polished cut set
Polished Cut Netherrack Wall — the wall shape of the polished cut set
Small Netherrack Bricks — a full block with a small brick pattern
Cut Netherrack Bricks — a full block with a cut brick pattern
Stonecutting the Whole Family
Cut Netherrack is the starting point for stonecutting every block in this guide. Each of the six blocks can be cut directly from Cut Netherrack, which means a single input block type feeds the entire set.
Cut Netherrack → Polished Cut Netherrack- Cut Netherrack → Polished Cut Netherrack Stairs
- Cut Netherrack → Polished Cut Netherrack Slab
- Cut Netherrack → Polished Cut Netherrack Wall
- Cut Netherrack → Small Netherrack Bricks
- Cut Netherrack → Cut Netherrack Bricks
If you are producing several shapes at once, stonecutting lets you go straight from Cut Netherrack to whichever shape you need, without crafting intermediate blocks first.
Crafting the Polished Cut Set
The polished cut blocks also have crafting recipes. The full block, stairs, and wall are made with shaped recipes, while the slab is made with a shaped recipe as well.
- Polished Cut Netherrack: a shapeless recipe using two Polished Cut Netherrack Slab
- Polished Cut Netherrack Stairs: a shaped recipe using six Polished Cut Netherrack
- Polished Cut Netherrack Slab: a shaped recipe using three Polished Cut Netherrack
- Polished Cut Netherrack Wall: a shaped recipe using six Polished Cut Netherrack
Note the two-way relationship between the full block and the slab: three Polished Cut Netherrack craft one Polished Cut Netherrack Slab, and two Polished Cut Netherrack Slab craft one Polished Cut Netherrack back. That makes it easy to convert between the two as your build requires.
Crafting the Brick Blocks
The two brick blocks use shapeless recipes that consume their slab counterparts, mirroring the polished cut full block recipe.
- Small Netherrack Bricks: a shapeless recipe using two
Small Netherrack Brick Slab - Cut Netherrack Bricks: a shapeless recipe using two

Choosing a Method
Stonecutting reaches every block in this guide from Cut Netherrack alone, so it is the most direct route when you already have Cut Netherrack on hand. Crafting is useful when you have the intermediate blocks — Polished Cut Netherrack, its slab, or the brick slabs — and want to turn them into another shape. Both routes produce the same blocks, so the choice comes down to which materials you are holding.
