How to Build Anything in Minecraft on Xbox Edition

Minecraft enables you to craft structures and objects out of the resources you collect in the world. Some items, such as redstone, enable you to build elaborate devices like alarm systems. More complicated objects require you to build additional tools first, such as a crafting table or a furnace. A crafting table will provide you with more crafting slots in which to combine items. If you don't want to gather resources manually, you can play Minecraft in Creative mode to receive access to unlimited resources.
