In this guide, we’ll show you how to create iron leggings. What you’ll need:
- A Crafting table.
- A Furnace.
- A Stone pickaxe.
- Seven iron ingots.
Step 1 – Mine some iron
0:17 – Using a stone pickaxe, mine seven pieces of iron ore. You can generally find mineral veins in caves or mines.

Step 2 – Smelt the iron ore
0:32 – Place the iron ore in your furnace to smelt it into iron ore. You can use different fuel sources to power your furnace, we use logs since they’re easy to acquire.

Step 3 – Place the iron ingots
0:48 – Now, place iron ingots in the bottom-left, middle-left, top-left, top-middle, top-right, middle-right, and bottom-right cells of the crafting grid.
(You can look at your numpad, if you have one, and the placement on the crafting grid would correspond to the “1”, “4”, “7”, “8”, “9”, “6”, and “3” keys, which we can refer to as cells 1, 4, 7, 8, 9, 6, and 3.)

Step 4 (Optional) – Wear it with confidence
And now you have a great new pair of iron leggings! Fairly durable and rugged, these pants are at home both in town and in caves and have helped bring more than one adventurer home.

Now, if only you could scratch that pesky itch on your leg.
