About
The Stone Shovel is a basic tool crafted from wood planks and cobblestone (or blackstone variants). It mines soil and aggregate blocks significantly faster than bare hands and is non-stackable, so each one occupies a separate inventory slot.
Use it to quickly clear ground, dig wells, or harvest sand and gravel deposits. It wears down with use and eventually breaks; repair it on an anvil or crafting table with additional stone, or simply craft a replacement when it dulls. Give it to players with the command shown, adjusting the quantity as needed.
