How to build a giant Chest in Minecraft
The Chest block, 16 times bigger: every pixel of its real texture becomes one block. Plan it, gather the exact blocks and build it layer by layer.
- 14 × 14 × 15 blocks (wide × tall × long)
- 1,016 blocks hollow (15 stacks + 56), 2,752 solid
- 14 layers from the bottom up
- 15 kinds of block
Blocks you need
For the hollow build at real size, with 1-block walls. In the builder you can pick other block groups, a different size (½× up to 16×) or a solid build, and the list changes with it.
| Block | Count |
|---|---|
| Yellow Terracotta | 314 (4 stacks + 58) |
| Brown Mushroom Block | 288 (4 stacks + 32) |
| Stripped Spruce Wood | 140 (2 stacks + 12) |
| Gray Terracotta | 84 (1 stack + 20) |
| Stripped Dark Oak Wood | 75 (1 stack + 11) |
| Smooth Red Sandstone | 63 |
| Black Terracotta | 38 |
| Jungle Wood | 3 |
| Coal Block | 2 |
| Light Gray Concrete | 2 |
| Smooth Stone | 2 |
| White Concrete | 2 |
…and 3 more kinds of block, listed in the builder.
How to build it
- Plan: choose the blocks you have, the size, hollow or solid, and the build direction.
- Gather: get the exact block list in stacks and shulker boxes, or download it as a Litematica schematic.
- Build: place one layer at a time, with a 3D view and a 2D map of each layer that counts the blocks in every row.
