What is the Copper Golem?
The Copper Golem is an adorable inventory management machine that automatically sorts items between chests in your base. Unlike other golems that focus on protection, the Copper Golem specializes in organization, making it perfect for players who struggle with cluttered storage rooms.
How to Spawn a Copper Golem
Creating your copper companion is surprisingly simple! You need to place a Block of Copper on the ground, then place a Carved Pumpkin on top of it. The moment the second block is placed, a Copper Golem will spawn along with its Copper Chest.
Crafting Requirements
| Item | Quantity | How to Obtain |
|---|---|---|
| Block of Copper | 1 | Craft with 9 Copper Ingots |
| Carved Pumpkin | 1 | Use Shears on a Pumpkin |
| Copper Ingots | 9 | Smelt Copper Ore (found underground) |
Copper Golem Behavior & Features
The Copper Golem’s intelligence system is impressive for such a simple mob. Copper golems will open copper chests, pick up as many items as they can carry, then take them to other chests in your base, even sorting your items neatly into stacks.
Smart Sorting System
The copper golem can remember up to 10 chests it has previously visited. If it has already visited 10 chests and still cannot place its items, it wanders around for 7 seconds, forgets which chests it has visited, and continues searching.
Key Behavioral Traits:
- Automatically organizes items from Copper Chests to regular chests
- Prioritizes matching item types and enchantments
- Takes 3 seconds to stop at each chest it visits
- Remembers chest locations to optimize sorting routes
Copper Chest: The Perfect Storage Partner
The Copper Chest isn’t just decorative – it’s the cornerstone of your automated storage system. Pop the haul from your latest expedition in the copper chest, and then sit back and watch as your new buddy helps sort those items into all the other chests in your base.
Storage Benefits
Efficient Organization: Items are automatically sorted into appropriate chests Time-Saving: No more manual inventory management after mining trips Expandable System: Works with multiple copper chests and regular chests Visual Appeal: Copper chests add aesthetic value to your base

FAQs
Q: Can the Copper Golem work with modded chests or only vanilla Minecraft chests?
A: The Copper Golem is designed to work with standard Minecraft chests and copper chests. While it may interact with some modded storage blocks, compatibility isn’t guaranteed and depends on how the mod implements chest mechanics.
Q: Will my Copper Golem stop working if it gets too far from my base?
A: Copper Golems have a limited range and will only operate within loaded chunks near your base. If you travel too far away and the chunks unload, the golem will pause its activities until you return and the chunks reload again.
