How to Place and Sit on Workshop Chairs and Stools

Crafting and Arranging Seating

You can furnish cozy workshop corners, break areas, and busy factory floors with functional chairs and stools. Start by placing an Andesite, Copper, Brass, or Railway Casing into a placed Stonecutter. Browse the recipe options in the center window to pick between backed chairs and compact stools, choosing from any of the four available color options to match your build. Pull the crafted seats from the output slot onto your hotbar, aim at the floor next to your tables or machinery, and right-click to place them down.

Sitting Down and Dismounting

Both chairs and stools are interactive rather than purely decorative, letting you sit down directly on them to take a break inside your factory. Walk up to any placed chair or stool and right-click on it to sit. Make sure your main hand is empty—or holding an item without its own right-click placement behavior—so you do not accidentally place a block against the seat instead of mounting it. Once seated, you can look around freely and watch your mechanical setups run. When you are ready to get back to work, press your sneak key (Left Shift by default) to stand up.
