Vending Machines, Bookshelf Traders, Auction Stands, and Card Displays for Selling
Vending machines, bookshelf traders, auction stands, and card displays are the core selling blocks in Lightman's Currency, and each one is crafted around a 
Trading Core. This guide covers the recipes for the white vending machines, the dark oak trader and auction blocks, the dark oak card display, and the armor display.
Vending Machines
The 
White Vending Machine is built from a shaped recipe: four 
Iron Ingot, two colorless glass blocks, two wooden chests, and one Trading Core. If you already have a 
Light Gray Vending Machine, you can convert it instead with a shapeless recipe that combines it with a 
Water Bucket.
The 
Large White Vending Machine follows the same two-path pattern. The shapeless route takes a 
Large Light Gray Vending Machine plus a Water Bucket. The shaped route uses four Iron Ingot, two colorless glass blocks, two wooden chests, and a White Vending Machine in place of the Trading Core. Note that the large version is built from the standard white machine rather than directly from a core.
Bookshelf Trader
The 
Dark Oak Bookshelf Trader uses a shaped recipe of six 
Dark Oak Planks, two 
Dark Oak Slab, and one Trading Core. It is the only bookshelf trader recipe listed here, and it is specific to the dark oak wood type.
Auction Stand
The 
Dark Oak Auction Stand has a compact shaped recipe: one colorless glass block, one Trading Core, and one 
Dark Oak Log. With only three ingredients, it is the simplest of the selling blocks to assemble.
Card Display
The 
Dark Oak Card Display is crafted with a shaped recipe of one 
Red Wool, one Trading Core, three Dark Oak Log, and one wooden chest. The red wool distinguishes it from the auction stand recipe, which also uses dark oak logs and a core.
Armor Display
The 
Armor Display is made with a shaped recipe: five colorless glass blocks, one 
Armor Stand, two Iron Ingot, and one Trading Core. It shares the glass-and-iron theme of the vending machines but substitutes an Armor Stand for the chests.
Recipe Patterns at a Glance
A few patterns run across these recipes:
- Every block on this page requires exactly one Trading Core, except the Large White Vending Machine when crafted the shaped way, which consumes a White Vending Machine instead.
- Colorless glass blocks appear in the White Vending Machine, Large White Vending Machine, Dark Oak Auction Stand, and Armor Display.
- Wooden chests appear in the White Vending Machine, Large White Vending Machine, and Dark Oak Card Display.
- Iron ingots appear in the White Vending Machine, Large White Vending Machine, and Armor Display.
- The dark oak family covers three separate blocks: the Dark Oak Bookshelf Trader, the Dark Oak Auction Stand, and the Dark Oak Card Display.
- The two vending machines are the only blocks here with a shapeless conversion recipe involving a Water Bucket.
Picking the Right Block
If you want a straightforward three-ingredient build, the Dark Oak Auction Stand is the lightest recipe. If you need an armor-focused showcase, the Armor Display pairs an Armor Stand with glass and iron. For a wood-themed selling setup, the Dark Oak Bookshelf Trader and Dark Oak Card Display both use dark oak materials, with the card display adding Red Wool and a chest. The White Vending Machine and Large White Vending Machine give you a glass-and-iron look, and the large variant can be reached either by crafting from scratch or by upgrading a light gray large machine with a Water Bucket.
