Anvils are crucial for item repair. Crafting one requires 4 iron ingots and 3 iron blocks (a total of 31 ingots!), demanding significant iron ore mining and smelting. Use the following crafting recipe:

Anvil Functionality
The anvil's crafting menu has three slots; only two can be occupied. Repair involves placing two similar, damaged items to create a single, more durable one.

Alternatively, combine a damaged item with crafting materials to repair it partially. Note that specific items may require unique repair recipes. Repairing consumes experience points; greater durability restoration equates to higher XP cost.
Repairing Enchanted Items
Repairing enchanted items is similar to repairing regular items, but requires more experience points and often involves using additional enchanted items or enchanted books.
Combining two enchanted items can result in a fully repaired item with enhanced enchantments. The combined enchantments are added together, along with durability. Success isn't guaranteed, and the XP cost varies depending on item placement – experimentation is key!

Enchanted books can also be used in place of a second enchanted item. Using two books can even further upgrade enchantments.
Anvil Limitations
Anvils, despite their durability, eventually break from overuse, indicated by cracks. Remember to craft replacements and maintain an iron supply. Importantly, anvils cannot repair all items; scrolls, books, bows, and chainmail require alternative methods.

Combining identical items in the crafting table interface increases their durability, providing a convenient method, especially during travel. Grindstones also offer an alternative repair method.
