Block of redstone: recipe and what it is for

A block of redstone equals nine redstone dust and crafts back into them, so it stores a lot of redstone in very little space. It is crafted from nine redstone dust in a 3 × 3 grid.

Its most interesting use is as a power source that never turns off: it gives signal strength 15 to everything touching it. Unlike a redstone torch, it needs no supporting block and pistons can move it, so it shows up a lot in hidden doors, flying machines and contraptions that switch something on by moving the block.

Any pickaxe mines it, unlike redstone ore, which needs iron or better. Without a pickaxe it drops nothing. In the center of every ancient city, inside a secret room, two blocks of redstone sit wired into a circuit.

This page is its texture, 16 × 16 pixels, the bright red with darker dots that is easy to spot in any technical build.
