Overview

Iron Chests expands Minecraft's single, cramped wooden chest into a full ladder of upgraded chests with progressively more storage. Build up from copper and iron to gold, diamond, crystal, and obsidian, each holding many more items than the last. The crystal chest is transparent and even shows its contents from the outside, and obsidian chests are tough and blast-resistant.

Best of all, you never have to empty a chest to upgrade it: upgrade items convert a chest to the next tier in place, keeping everything inside.
