7 Iron Ingots Crafting Table (or Crafter)

Iron ingots are basic items you can find in loot chests across plenty of the game’s structures or get them by smelting raw iron in a furnace or a blast furnace. Since iron ingots are an ingredient in so many crafting recipes, we recommend making an iron farm, so you’ll never run out of iron.
The crafting table is a simple utility block that includes a 3 x 3 crafting grid. Though, if you’d like to get fancy, you can automate the crafting process with a crafter. It’s a special version of the crafting table that only supports automated crafting using redstone power.
