Chisels are the primary tool used to carve or polish stone and wood blocks.

Creation

The raw material used to create the tool head determines the crafting process required:

  • Knapping: Chisels cannot be crafted by knapping.
  • Casting: Chisels cannot be crafted by casting.
  • Smithing: Copper, Bronze alloy and Iron chisels can only be made by smithing, which requires 1 ingot.
    • Note: Chisels cannot be created from gold and silver.

Special: When smithing, four chisel blades may be created from one ingot.

Table: Tool Tiers

Material Durability Material Tier
Copper 600 2
Tin Bronze 1000 3
Bismuth Bronze 1200 3
Black Bronze 1400 3
Iron 2000 4

Usage

This tool is used in conjunction with the hammer and/or saw to craft stone and wood materials in the crafting grid.

Harvesting

The chisel is not used to harvest resources, but can be used to polish rock in place before mining with a pickaxe.

  • Note: The chisel has no mining speed variant. The metal used to create the item affects durability.

Combat

Attacking a mob (melee combat): place the tool in an active hotbar slot and press or hold left mouse button to strike the target.

  • Note: Though all tools may be used as weapons, the chisel has no known attack power or HP value per hit. Testing has determined that a player using a chisel as a weapon can kill a surface drifter. This combat requires at least 20 attacks and the player testing the chisel clearly stated "I can indeed kill a drifter with an iron chisel... but that is just asking to be killed.

Crafting

Place the required tools in the grid crafting slot above the material to be carved. (Generally the hammer is placed above the chisel, and the material to be processed is placed below the chisel. Removing the (product) from the output slot of the grid uses the tool. When complete, remove the tool from the grid, or close the interface by pressing 'E' to replace the tool into an available space in the inventory or hotbar. (If a slot is not available, pressing 'E' will discard the item(s) on the ground.)

  • The chisel is used with the hammer to craft polished rock, polished slabs and stone bricks in the crafting grid. See the stone block page for more information.
  • The chisel is used with the hammer and saw to craft gears, axles and rotors in the crafting grid. See the mechanical power page for more information.

Special Case: Microblock Chiseling

When this option is activated in a game (server configuration), players may remove voxels from full blocks to create unique shapes.

  • Left mouse button removes voxels.
  • Right mouse button replaces voxels.

Storage

Tools are items commonly used by players and are generally equipped in the hotbar. Chisels do not stack in inventory or when placed in containers. The tool rack is a specialized wall mounted storage container that allows players to store tools. Tool racks are made of 6 sticks in the crafting grid and once placed, can store 4 tools each. Tools are placed from an active hotbar slot and removed using the right mouse button to an empty space in the hotbar.
