What you’ll build
Give your wheat farm a windmill. You'll build a stone tower that gets thinner as it rises, cap it with a roof, then fix a cross of fences to the front and fill in big blades. Add a door and a sign, and admire it from your farm.
Finish line: Your windmill has a tower that narrows towards the top and four blades, standing by the wheat farm.
Bonus challenge: Make a tiny windmill on a roof somewhere else in your village.
You’ll need
- Stone
- Wood
- Fences
- Wool for the blades
You choose
- Windmill colours
- Blade shape and colour
- A door and a little sign
Stuck?
- Tower not narrowing? Make each new layer one block smaller on each side than the one below.
- Blades lopsided? Count the same number of blocks out from the centre in all four directions.
- These windmills don't spin, so focus on getting the shape right.
