Trivia[edit]
- Strangely, when smelting cobblestone blocks, the cracked form of stone, they turn into stone without cracks. Yet, when smelting stone bricks without cracks, they turn into a cracked variant. This could be a reference to two different processes: how rocks expand when heated, and causing fractures, which could make the stone bricks crack; or simply melting the cobblestone so it reforms into igneous stone.
