Piston

Does not stack
Places a block
0Components

The Piston is a craftable item that stacks up to 64. It is made from any planks, Cobblestone, an Iron Ingot, and Redstone Dust, and placing it puts down a Piston block.

Players use it as an ingredient in one other recipe, so it serves as a stepping stone to another craftable item.
