Now that we have known the editions that support the process that we are going to follow, let us get back to the process.
You can easily create or craft a tinted glass in Minecraft by using the crafting table. Yeah you just need to combine some basic elements and get a tinted result as the result of it.
- Opening the craft table
The very first step towards crafting the tinted in the crafting table is to open it in the first place, then only we would be able to produce the required result.
You need to follow the required gestures or steps in your editions of Minecraft to open the craft table.
Once you have opened the craft table, you will notice that the crafting table has two distinctive parts, the first part is the input part, where we combine the required items together to get a final result in the last, the other part is the output part that is where we get the finished product.
The input part consists of a square box that contains nine small blocks in it. The nine blocks inside the square box are arranged in a set of three columns and three rows.
The output part on the other hand, has a single block that holds the finished product. No matter the number of finished products, they all come inside this single block.
Now that you have opened the crafting table, you need to move onto the next step that is arranging the items.
Before we move further, you need to consider the required item that you will be needing in the process to produce the tinted glass.
The items required to produce the tinted glass in the crafting crafting table inside Minecraft gameplay are;
- Four amethyst shard
- A glass
So, you do need four amethyst shards and a single glass to produce the tinted glass in the crafting table.
Now that we have also known the required items to craft the tinted glass, let’s move to the another step of creating a tinted glass.
- Arranging the items
After you have opened the crafting table, you need to combine the elements- four amethyst shards and a glass together in the crafting table, to get a final result.
The order of arranging the items in the crafting table does matter in getting a finished product. You only get a finished product in the crafting table if you put the items in the correct order. There is a fixed order for producing every item or tool in the crafting table.
If you did not arrange the items in the correct order then you would not be able to produce the final product no matter how hard you try.
You need to follow the exact manner of arrangements of the items given below so as to get a tinted glass.
- Place the four amethyst shard and a glass in a certain way that the first column has a amethyst shard in the second place, the second column has two amethyst shards in the first and last place, and a glass in the second place, the third column has a amethyst shard in the second place of the square box in the crafting table.
Or the first row has a amethyst shard in the second place, the second row has two amethyst shards in the first and second places and a glass in the second place, the last row has a amethyst shard in the second place of the square box in the crafting table.
Or to say the first level has a amethyst shard in the second place, the second level has two amethyst shards in the first and last place and a glass in the second place, and the third level or last level has an amethyst shard in the second place of the square box in the crafting table.
So this was the order of arranging the four amethyst shards and a glass in the crafting table.
After you have arranged the required items in the exact manner, you will notice that the tinted glass appears in the final part of the crafting table.
There you will find two tinted glass placed inside that single column in the crafting table.
Here you have finally created the tinted glass in the crafting table.
Yet you haven’t added to the gameplay so you won’t be able to get its benefit unless you follow this last step.
- Adding the tinted glass
You need to know that the product that you have crafted in the crafting table by combining the required items, does remain in the crafting table unless you move it to your gameplay.
You need to drag the tinted glass from the output section of the crafting table and place it in the inventory.
You need to follow the respective gestures or steps in your editions of Minecraft to place the tinted glass from the output part to the inventory.
After you place it in the inventory, you will find that the tinted glass seems to appear in the bar given below on the screen.
Now you can use it from here on to reduce the intensity of light in your settlement or house by placing it there.
Here you have successfully produced the tinted glass in the crafting table.
