Turn Sand into a Workshop Material

Glass Block is the refining step between Sand Block collection and a large set of windows, lamps, containers, and machine recipes. Keep Ember beside the Craftbot so a missing single unit does not halt a full glass batch.

Plan the Batch Before Building

  • One Craftbot batch converts 10 Sand Blocks and 1 Ember into 10 Glass Blocks.
  • Reserve recipe stock before using the same Glass Blocks as decoration.
  • Use the recipe list below to check the exact variant and quantity a machine consumes.
