Hit it until it breaks. The workbench (or crafting table) will be dropped like any other item, which you can then redeploy elsewhere. The same applies to most other things like that; chests, furnaces, etc.FatherJack wrote:couldn't work out how to take my workbench with me
There is no oil. Coal ore looks like rock but with black bits in it. Other ores use different colours, iron = brownish, gold = yellow, etc. Coal is dropped as soon as you smash the ore block, other ores require processing in a furnace. Contrary to what he says in the video you can break rock and ore blocks without a pickaxe but they drop nothing and it takes a lot longer.FatherJack wrote:I think I'd misidentified oil/rock as coal.
There could be some confusion if you find flint, which looks similar to coal. Flint is sometimes dropped from gravel and is only useful for creating a fire lighter (Flint and Steel).
