  3. For a sphere or dome, use the Layer slider to go through the layers from the bottom up and build them one by one.

  4. Hover over a row in the grid and the line above it tells you how many blocks to place in a row.

  5. Download the template with Download PNG and build it row by row.

About this tool

This Minecraft circle generator draws a circle, ellipse, sphere or dome block by block so you can build it accurately and symmetrically.

Enter the diameter (width and height for an ellipse), choose a filled shape or just a thin or thick outline and you get a grid with the number of blocks in each row.

Spheres and domes up to 128 blocks are shown layer by layer, circles and ellipses up to 256 blocks. Download the template as an image to keep it at hand while you build.

Frequently asked questions

Answers to the questions people ask most about this tool.

How do I build a circle in Minecraft?

Enter the diameter and the generator shows a block grid. Start at the centre, count blocks out in each direction from the template and build row by row. An odd diameter has one centre block, an even one has four.

How do I build a sphere or dome?

Choose sphere or dome and a diameter. The generator splits the shape into horizontal layers and shows the circle to build for each one. A dome is the top half of a sphere.

How many blocks will I need?

The generator counts blocks for the whole shape and for each layer separately, for a filled shape or a hollow one with a thin or thick outline.
