Although there's no such thing as a true lightsaber in Minecraft, I was able to make a glow stick that's the next best thing and looks almost like the real deal! Here's how to make a "lightsaber" in Minecraft Education Edition.
How to create a lightsaber in Minecraft Education Edition
To make a lightsaber in Minecraft Education Edition, you will need the following chemical compound materials.
- 20 Carbon
- 30 Hydrogen
- Three Nitrogen
- Four Oxygen
- One dye (can be any color)
You can get all these compounds by making them yourself through the element constructor or via the creative inventory. When you have the materials, you will need to turn them into the following chemicals and items:
- Polyethylene
- Hydrogen Peroxide
- Luminol
Start with the Polyethylene by placing ten carbon and 20 hydrogens inside your compound creator. Doing so will allow you to turn both chemicals into Polyethylene.
To make the Luminol you need, you will need to place the following amounts of materials in the compound creator:
- Seven Hydrogen
- Eight Carbon
- Three Nitrogen
- Two Oxygen
To make Hydrogen Peroxide, just place two Hydrogen and two Oxygen inside the compound creator.
Once you have all of the materials you need to make a lightsaber or glowstick in Minecraft, place them exactly as shown by the crafting image below.
Start by placing the Polyethylene on the right and left rows going down. Next, place the dye in the middle slot, the Luminol in the bottom slot, and the Hydrogen Peroxide in the top slot. After you finish, you will create a lightsaber (glowstick) in Minecraft Education Edition.
Can you make a lightsaber in Minecraft Java Edition & Bedrock Edition?
Unfortunately, compounds do not exist in the Java edition, meaning you can't use chemicals to create glow st... I mean, lightsabers, ice bombs, and other cool things. If you're playing Bedrock Edition, you'll need to activate the Enable Cheats option and then enable the Education Edition option before creating your world. Now, you can become a true Minecraft scientist!
