Now that you have your fence planks, it’s time to turn them into functional fences. Follow these steps:
- Open your crafting table.
- Place the fence planks in the crafting grid, filling the one stack of three boxes in the middle column.
- Drag the crafted fence into your inventory.
Step 4: Placing the Fence
With the crafted fence in your inventory, it’s time to place it in the desired location. Follow these steps:
- Select the fence from your inventory.
- Position yourself where you want to place the fence.
- Right-click on the block where you want the first fence post to be.
