Craft a crafting table from four planks. Status: Verified.
PS5 trophy details
- Grade: Bronze. Set: Base game. No separately purchased DLC is implied by the catalogue's expansion-pack label.
- Missable: no story-ending lockout; the task can be repeated in an eligible Survival world. Eligibility can still be lost through settings.
- Difficulty: 1/10, Hizzle editorial estimate. Time: UNSURE. Hidden flag: UNSURE.
- Players: Solo route described; online play is not required by this method. Online required: no for the described route; local play can be used for the two-player tasks.
- Roadmap: start phase of Minecraft PS5 Platinum trophy roadmap.
What to do
- Turn a collected log into planks in the inventory crafting area.
- Fill its four crafting squares with one plank each.
- Take the crafting table from the result slot, then place it somewhere safe.
Before you repeat it
Use the four-plank crafting route described here and take its result. Obsidian is not an ingredient. The PS5 list calls this Benchmarking; some Bedrock references call the same basic crafting goal Benchmaking.
Evidence and editions
Mojang's official data or mechanic explanation and the independently maintained Minecraft Wiki agree on this method. Bedrock 26.60 patch notes were reviewed; no change invalidating the described method was identified. This is research verification, not an in-game PS5 unlock test. PS4 players should use this method only for a matching trophy in their own stack; see Minecraft PS5 vs PS4 trophy differences. Xbox points and Java advancement equivalence are not established by this PS5 record.
