Pulverizers are made out of a pulverizer frame, a pulverizer toggle, and two capped pounders.  


Pulverizer frames hold the entire mechanism together. It is a two-block high structure. It takes a hopper input from the top and outputs items to the front. The pulverizer toggle must be placed within a pulverizer frame, and an axle should be connected to it in order to power the entire mechanism. Two pounders must then be attached to the frame, and capped.

Pulverizers must be powered via a [[windmill]] or similar mechanism in order to function, and cannot be manually operated.  
They can be manually loaded, by selecting the item to be pulverized in the hotbar and right-clicking the pulverizer frame. Pulverizers can process two items at a time. Inputs can also be automated using hoppers. Outputted items come out of the front of the pulverizer and can likewise be directed into a crate or chest using a hopper.
Pulverizers are used to crush [[Gemstones#Quartz|quartz]], [[Rock|bauxite]], [[Gemstones#Olivine|olivine]] or [[Titanium|ilmenite]] for use in [[Steel Making|refractory bricks]], or for crushing [[cinnabar]] or [[lapis lazuli]] to make [[Dye|dyes]].
