How to craft a Slime Block in Survival Mode

Slime Block - Wiki Guide 11

2. Add Items to make a Slime Block

In the crafting menu, you should see a crafting area that is made up of a 3×3 crafting grid. To make a slime block, place 9 slimeballs in the 3×3 crafting grid.

When making a slime block, it is important that the slimeballs are placed in the exact pattern as the image below. There should be 3 slimeballs in the first row, 3 slimeballs in the second row, and 3 slimeballs in the third row. This should fill all of the boxes in the crafting grid. This is the Minecraft crafting recipe for a slime block.
