Location
editSandstone is a block that can either be found in the desert or created by crafting. Sandstone is found 2-4 layers below the sand of a desert and on the frames of wells, desert temples and some desert village houses.
Crafting
editSandstone is crafted by putting 4 sand in a square like how you would with a crafting table.

Usage
editUnlike sand, sandstone does not fall in Minecraft, typically making it a better choice for permanent structures. Common techniques include using sandstone as the roof of a house.
