Overview
Loom is a block in the Utility Blocks category of Minecraft, obtained through crafting it and Village (Shepherd house). A single inventory slot holds a full stack of 64 Loom. It doubles as furnace fuel, good for 1.5 smelts before it is used up.
On the hardness scale Loom sits at 2.5. An axe is the right tool for Loom, and any tier of it collects the block. Loom holds up against explosions exactly as well as it does against a pickaxe, and no better.
