How to craft an End Crystal in Survival Mode

1. Open the Crafting Menu

First, open your crafting table so that you have the 3x3 crafting grid that looks like this:

3x3 crafting area

2. Add Items to make an End Crystal

In the crafting menu, you should see a crafting area that is made up of a 3x3 crafting grid. To make an end crystal, place 1 eye of ender, 1 ghast tear and 7 glass in the 3x3 crafting grid.

When making an end crystal, it is important that the items are placed in the exact pattern as the image below. In the first row, there should be 3 glass. In the second row, there should be 1 glass in the first box, 1 eye of ender in the second box and 1 glass in the third box. In the third row, there should be 1 glass in the first box, 1 ghast tear in the second box and 1 glass in the third box. This is the Minecraft crafting recipe for an end crystal.
