Minecraft Circle · Sphere · Oval Generator

Enter a size to see circles, filled circles, ovals, spheres and domes as a block-by-block blueprint. For spheres and domes, step through each layer and build it exactly as shown.

Blue squares are where blocks go. The red dashed lines mark the center; for even sizes the center falls between two blocks.

How to build a circle in Minecraft

  1. Choose Circle and enter the diameter. Odd sizes (e.g. 15) have a single center block, which is easier to line up.
  2. Mark the center in your world, then count blocks outward along one quarter of the blueprint. Circles are symmetric, so the other three quarters mirror it.
  3. Turn on "Bold line every 5 blocks" to make counting easier on large builds.

Spheres and domes

Pick Sphere or Dome and use the layer slider (or ▼/▲) to go through each horizontal slice from the bottom up. Build one layer, step up, and build the next. The block count includes every layer so you can gather materials beforehand; with "Filled" off only the shell is counted.

FAQ

What does "Thick outline" do?

A thin outline only touches at corners on diagonal sections, which lets mobs and light through and looks dotted from far away. Thick outline adds blocks so every block shares a side with the next one.

What’s the largest size?

Up to 200 blocks. Blueprints above about 100 are easier to read zoomed in on a desktop screen.
