1. Aluminum Oxide – Obtained using the Element Constructor.

2. Boron Trioxide – Created in the Compound Creator.

3. White Stained Glass – Crafted from Glass and White Dye (obtained from Bone Meal or Lily of the Valley).

These materials are then combined in a crafting grid, yielding Hardened White Stained Glass.

• Space and sci-fi builds, where white glass fits well with Iron Blocks and End Rods.
