Sand is an alternate block to dirt for the surface of the world.

Appearance

Sand is a mottled yellow color.

Where Found

A Blockhead can find sand in desert biomes or beaches adjacent to and/or underneath some bodies of water. Small deposits can be found almost anywhere above bedrock.

Gathering

It's best harvested using a spade, although there is no loss associated with using anything else. A gold spade will produce occasional bonuses.

Crafting

Sand can be processed in a kiln or electric kiln to make glass.

Notes

Like most blocks, sand remains where it's placed even if all support under it is removed.
