Crush Glass with Falling Anvils

Drop Anvils Onto Glass

Falling anvils will instantly shatter any glass blocks directly beneath them as they descend. This creates dramatic destruction sequences and is useful for traps or environmental hazards.

How It Works

1. Place a glass block or glass pane on the ground

2. Position an anvil above it (any height)

3. Let the anvil fall naturally due to gravity

4. When the anvil lands on the glass, the glass shatters immediately

5. The anvil continues falling through the broken space

Design Tips

  • Stack multiple glass layers to create cascading shatters
  • Combine with other falling blocks for chain reactions
  • Use in mob traps where heavy objects trigger glass destruction
  • Create dynamic architecture that breaks under weight

The anvil itself is not destroyed by this interaction—only the glass beneath it breaks.
