As you open the crafting table in your device, you will notice that the crafting table consists of two segments.
The first segment of the crafting table does contain a square box. This square box has 9 blocks arranged in a way that it contains 3 columns and 3 rows. It almost looks like the front face of a Rubik’s cube.
The second segment of the crafting table contains an output column that consists of a single box. In that single box all of your final results are located, whether the result is one or more.

Before we move to the process of crafting stone slabs, let us look at the things that you will be needing to craft stone slabs.
Required items
For crafting the stone slabs in the crafting table, you will have to place various items in the first segment.
You will need three stones to craft a single stone slab in the crafting.

You will need to place the required items in the crafting table, in order to obtain the required result.
You also need to ensure that the order of arrangement of the required items remains similar to the below given order.
It is extremely important in crafting various things from the crafting table, so as to obtain the desirable result.
Otherwise the crafting table would not bring any result to you. No matter how hard you try to get a desired result.
For obtaining the stone slab, you need to place the stones in such a way that,
The first column has a stone in the second place, the second column has a stone in the second place, the third column has a stone in the second column as well.
Or, the second row has all three stones in there at the first, second and third positions respectively.
The three stones are placed in the second level of the square box at first, second and third place respectively.
Place the stones at the same position described above, so as to acquire a stone slab in the final segment.
After you place all the stones in the right direction, you will notice that the stone slab actually appears in the final segment.
This is the stone slab for which we have been waiting for.
Here you have successfully acquired a stone slab from the crafting table.
But the process isn’t fully complete yet.

If you wish to add some more stone slabs then you will have to follow the exact same process again to produce a stone slab.
