- and use wooden planks as the fuel in the furnace to burn wooden blocks into charcoal
- turn some wooden planks into sticks

- use the torches to light up your shelter and the surroundings
- and finally, use 6 wooden planks to create a door for your shelter and place the door from outside in for maximum security.
