What is Waxed Oxidized Cut Copper Slab in Minecraft?
A waxed oxidized cut copper slab is a version of the cut copper slab that is fully aged and will not change any further. It has the same tiled pattern as a regular cut copper slab, but its color is a bright, verdigris green. The main purpose of waxing an oxidized cut copper slab is to permanently preserve this final stage of oxidation. This is perfect for builders who want a fully aged, ancient look for their detailed copper builds without having to worry about lightning accidentally cleaning it.
How to get Waxed Oxidized Cut Copper Slab in Minecraft
You can only get a waxed oxidized cut copper slab by crafting it or by waxing a slab in the world. To craft it, you will need one oxidized cut copper slab and one honeycomb. To get an oxidized cut copper slab, you must first let a regular cut copper slab sit out in the open air until it becomes fully green. Then, you can combine it with a honeycomb in a crafting grid. The easier way is to place a regular cut copper slab and wait for it to turn completely green. Once it is fully oxidized, just right click on it with a honeycomb to wax it and lock in that color forever.
How to use Waxed Oxidized Cut Copper Slab in Minecraft
The main use for a waxed oxidized cut copper slab is for detailed building and decoration. Its tiled pattern and fully green color are great for creating ancient looking roofs, detailed floors, or for adding a weathered accent to a build. Because it is waxed, it will never change, even if it is struck by lightning. If you ever change your mind and want to de age the block, you can remove the wax. To do this, simply right click on the waxed slab with an axe. The wax will be scraped off, and you can then use the axe again to scrape off layers of oxidation.
