Beyond simple storage, an armor stand lets you quickly change equipment, showcase your finest armor, and declutter your inventory. It becomes an essential part of any well-organized base.

Crafting an Armor Stand in Minecraft

Next, you'll need a smooth stone slab. This requires cobblestone, which is smelted in a furnace (see our separate guide on furnace creation for details) into stone, then crafted into smooth stone. Arrange three smooth stones horizontally to create the slab.
