The Brush is a vital piece of equipment in Minecraft, helping you locate treasures and so much more. But how do you make a Brush in Minecraft? We’ve got all the answers here.

The 1.20 Minecraft update brings with it new mobs, blocks, biomes, and features. One such feature is Archeology which adds in hidden treasures uncovered by the new tool the Brush.

The recipe has harder to get materials since the alteration.

To craft a Brush in Minecraft you’ll need three ingredients:

  • 1 Feather
  • 1 Copper
  • 1 Stick

You’ll be able to get hold of the feather by killing a chicken. Then you can get the stick by chopping down a tree, turning the wood into planks, then turning those planks into sticks. Lastly, Copper can be found in caves and underground, just like other ores.

Then, when you have all the materials required, head to a Crafting Table and place the Feather, Copper Ingot, and Stick in a vertical line in the middle of your table. This will craft a Brush.

That’s how you can craft a Brush in Minecraft as well as what the Feather Copper Sword is. While waiting for the 1.20 update to release, take a look at some of our other handy Minecraft guides and content:
