You\u2019ll need one feather, one copper ingot, and one stick.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the exact recipe:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Top slot:<\/strong> Feather<\/li>\n<li><strong>Middle slot:<\/strong> Copper ingot<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bottom slot:<\/strong> Stick<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Place these items in a vertical line in any column of your 3\u00d73 crafting grid. The order matters \u2013 feather goes on top, copper ingot in the middle, and stick at the bottom.<\/p>\n<h2>Gathering the Required Materials<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Feathers<\/strong> drop from chickens when they\u2019re killed, or you might find them lying around if chickens are nearby. They also appear in various loot chests throughout the world.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Copper ingots<\/strong> come from smelting raw copper ore in a furnace. Copper ore generates commonly in the Overworld, especially in mountainous areas and caves. You can also find copper ingots in treasure chests.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sticks<\/strong> are the easiest component \u2013 craft them from wooden planks or find them by breaking dead bushes in desert biomes.<\/p>\n<h2>What the Brush Does<\/h2>\n<p>The brush serves as an archaeology tool, primarily used for carefully excavating suspicious sand and suspicious gravel blocks. When you use it on these special blocks, you\u2019ll slowly reveal hidden items like pottery sherds, armor trims, or other valuable artifacts.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike other tools, the brush works slowly and methodically. Right-click and hold on suspicious blocks to gradually brush away layers and uncover treasures. This makes it essential for exploring desert temples, ocean ruins, and trail ruins where archaeological discoveries await.<\/p>\n<p>The brush has 64 durability points and can be enchanted with Unbreaking, Mending, and Curse of Vanishing to extend its usefulness during your archaeological adventures.<\/p>\n<p>Ready to start your archaeological journey and discover what ancient secrets lie buried in Minecraft\u2019s mysterious structures?
