Required Materials to make Scaffolding

In Minecraft, these are the materials you can use to craft scaffolding:

string 1 String bamboo 6 Bamboo

How to craft Scaffolding 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 Scaffolding

In the crafting menu, you should see a crafting area that is made up of a 3x3 crafting grid. To make scaffolding, place 6 bamboo and 1 string in the 3x3 crafting grid.

When making scaffolding, it is important that the bamboo and string are placed in the exact pattern as the image below. In the first row, there should be 1 bamboo in the first box, 1 string in the second box and 1 bamboo in the third box. In the second row, there should be 1 bamboo in the first box and 1 bamboo in the third box. In the third row, there should be 1 bamboo in the first box and 1 bamboo in the third box. This is the Minecraft crafting recipe for scaffolding.

Now that you have filled the crafting area with the correct pattern, the scaffolding will appear in the box to the right.

3. Move the Scaffolding to Inventory
