Category:Iron Chests

Iron Chests is a mod initially created by lishid, then rewritten and currently maintained by cpw. Despite the name, this mod adds a variety of new chests to the game in addition to iron chests, all superior to vanilla chests in that they have more capacity and can be placed next to each other. However, they are single chests only and cannot be combined to create double chests.

NOTE: These chests are not impervious to creeper explosions.

Inventory Capacities
Wooden Chest - 27

Copper - 45

Iron - 54 ( Same as Double Wooden Chest )

Silver - 72

Gold - 81 ( Three Wooden Chests )

Diamond - 108 ( Two Double Wooden Chests )

Chest Upgrades
In addition to crafting chests using their respective recipes, chest upgrades can also be made. The advantage to a chest upgrade is that you don't need to break a chest (spewing items everywhere) and then place a new one. To use a chest upgrade, right click the chest while holding the upgrade.

NOTE: DO NOT use the handheld upgrade on a double vanilla chest. This will crash your game.
