A '''chest''' is a crafted block that can contain other blocks and items. A chest has 27 storage slots, each of which can contain 64 of the same block or item (except for slots containing items such as [[Bucket|buckets]] or [[tools]]). A chest is a useful block to a new player running out of inventory space, and players that want to store and sort excess blocks and items. Destroying a chest will drop the blocks and items it contains on the block below where the chest was previously located. Naturally generated chests can be found in [[dungeons]] and [[Biomes#Ruins|ruins]] biomes.
