Soft Step Carpentry FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I craft wool stairs?
Place six wool blocks in a stair-step pattern inside a crafting table (three on the bottom row, two in the middle, one on top). The wool color you use determines the color of the stairs you get.
What's the recipe for wool slabs?
Place three wool blocks in a horizontal row across any row of the crafting table. You'll get multiple wool slabs from this recipe, just like with stone or wood slabs.
Can I make wool stairs and slabs in every color?
Yes, the mod includes all sixteen standard Minecraft wool colors. Craft with any wool color and you'll get matching stairs or slabs in that same color.
Do wool stairs and slabs work with my resource pack?
Yes, they use the standard wool textures, so any resource pack that changes wool appearance will automatically affect these blocks too.
Where do I find wool stairs and slabs in Creative mode?
They're placed in the matching Creative mode inventory tabs alongside regular wool blocks, organized by color.
Can I use these blocks on older Minecraft versions?
Yes, that's the whole purpose of this mod—it backports wool stairs and slabs to older versions that don't have them natively.
Do wool stairs and slabs have the same properties as wool blocks?
They function as stairs and slabs do in Minecraft, allowing you to place them at angles and in half-blocks for detailed building, though their softness and sound properties match regular wool.
Can I dye wool after placing the stairs or slabs?
No, you need to craft the stairs or slabs from the wool color you want—the blocks themselves cannot be dyed after placement.
What's the best way to get lots of wool for big projects?
Shear sheep for raw wool, or craft wool from string if you have plenty of it. Collect multiple sheep or farm string to build up your wool supply before crafting large quantities of stairs and slabs.
Do these blocks work well with other building mods?
Yes, they follow standard Minecraft block mechanics and should work alongside other building mods without conflicts, though compatibility depends on your specific mod setup.
