FAQ’s
Do waxed oxidized cut copper stairs generate naturally in Minecraft?
Waxed oxidized cut copper stairs do not naturally generate in Minecraft like other more common stair variants. The only way to acquire stone stairs in Minecraft is to craft them on a crafting table or stonecutter.
Are waxed oxidized cut copper stairs stackable? If so, how many can go in a stack?
Waxed oxidized cut copper stairs, like all stairs in Minecraft, are stackable and you can have up to 64 in one stack.
What is the best tool(s) for breaking stairs?
A pickaxe is best for breaking stone type (non-wood) stairs, like waxed oxidized cut copper, diorite, and stone stairs. And an ax is the fastest tool for breaking wood stairs, like mangrove, spruce, and dark oak stairs. Breaking a wood stair without a tool will drop a stair that can be picked up. Breaking non-wood stairs with anything other than a pickaxe will cause the stairs not to drop and they will be lost.

Replacing a full block with a stair or slab will allow you to place water in the same place as well.
