How To Make A Compass In Minecraft

Ensure you can always know what direction you're facing in Minecraft with a compass, which is fairly easy to craft

Once you have those resources, throw them both into a crafting table and you'll be able to craft a Compass. To use the Compass, simply assign it to a spot on your hotbar and wield it. The Compass' red needle will turn depending on what direction you're facing. By default, the Compass points to where you spawned in the world, which is indicated by the needle pointing straight up. The Compass can be used to keep track of where you are, where you're going, and where you need to get to in Minecraft. However, it won't work in the Nether, so don't bother trying to use it there.
