    A Sawmill is 3 blocks wide and 3 blocks high. For this crafting station to be made, it has to be placed on top of a platform or 3 solid blocks. Here are the ingredients needed to craft a Sawmill:

    • 10 Any Wood – The most common and easiest way to gather wood is by cutting down trees.
    • 10 Any Iron Bars – Could be an Iron Bar or a Lead Bar. You can craft this by using 3 Ores with a Furnace or 4 Fences on an Iron or Lead Anvil.
    • 1 Chain – You can craft 10 Chains by using an Iron Bar on an Iron or Lead Anvil

    Collect those ingredients and bring them to a Work Bench and you’ll be able to create your very own Sawmill.
