Block Round
Block Round is a free browser tool for making circles, ellipses, spheres, and ellipsoids with Minecraft block textures. Its 2D modes offer Euclidean, Bresenham, and Threshold algorithms; the 3D modes include X, Y, and 45-degree diagonal cuts, with a 3D preview. Users can choose blocks such as Grass Block, Dirt, Stone, Oak, Diamond, Sand, and Gravel, or a Random mix. The tool exports 2D figures as PNG and 3D figures as Sponge schematic v2 files, which WorldEdit, Litematica, and MCEdit can import. It runs in a browser without installation, an account, or a backend, and works offline as a PWA. Settings last for the session and reset to defaults after a reload. A technical math companion is available in nine languages, with each PDF described as at least 25 pages. The project states that its code, layout, design system, and sound engine are All Rights Reserved, and says it is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Mojang Studios or Microsoft.
Minecraft Shape Generator
Minecraft Shape Generator is a free web tool for turning geometric forms into block-by-block Minecraft building plans. It provides layer-by-layer blueprints, a 3D preview, coordinate output, and PNG export. Shape choices include spheres, domes, circles, ellipsoids, eggs, toruses, hearts, stars, cubes, pyramids, arches, mazes, spiral stairs, towers, roofs, and more. The Hollow mode makes a shell, while Solid fills the shape. The tool shows the total number of blocks and the count for the layer currently displayed. Its visual blueprints are intended for Java, Bedrock, and console builds; the output is a plan rather than a command or mod. The layer view can be kept on a mobile device as a reference while building on a PC or console. The site identifies survival players, creative builders, and server teams as users. For symmetry, its guidance recommends odd diameters, which result in one center block. No account is required, and creations are not stored.
