Q: Just like iron ore, you'll need to smelt the gold ore in a furnace to turn it into usable ingots. Don't bother making golden tools or armor unless you like the look, since they're weaker than iron. Instead, use the ingots for the special items described below. Place a redstone in the center of the crafting area, with one gold ingot on each side (four total). This makes a clock which shows you the position of the sun or moon. Place an item frame (eight sticks and one leather) on the wall and place a clock in it to make a wall clock. Place a stick in the middle of the craft area, fill the left and right columns with gold ingots (six total), and place redstone at the bottom. This powered rail will make minecarts move on their own, if you power it with a redstone torch or powered redstone circuit. If you want to start a redstone circuit when something falls on or walks over a square, build a pressure plate with two ingots side by side. Place an apple in the center of the craft area and surround it completely with golden ingots (eight total). This will make a golden apple, an excellent healing and protection item that you can eat even with full hunger. You used to be able to make a more powerful "Notch apple" in most versions of Minecraft by using gold blocks (see below) instead of ingots. This recipe was removed in Minecraft 1.9. Flaunt your wealth by filling the crafting table with golden ingots to make a single golden block. This bright yellow cube is mostly used just for decoration and storage. A single ingot anywhere in the crafting area will turn into a pile of gold nuggets. These have a few uses: Glistering Melon: Melon slice completely surrounded by nuggets. Used for potions. Golden Carrot: Carrot surrounded by nuggets. Used for potions, food, and breeding/ healing horses. Firework Stars: To make a firework, place any dye in the center and gunpowder to its left. Adding a gold nugget directly below the dye during crafting makes the firework star-shaped instead.
A: Smelt gold ingots. Craft ingots into a clock. Build powered rails. Make gold pressure plates. Create golden apples. Make blocks of gold. Break gold into nuggets.

Q: The best way to get a few checkers out of your area is by moving the checker on the right or left of the triangle toward your opponent's checkers. Then, you use one of the second checkers from the corner of the triangle and hop it over the third and fifth checkers. Similar to chess rules, if you keep your pieces away from the side they are less likely to become stranded. A great way to get pieces along the middle of the board is by setting up a zigzag line of your pieces. Then you can take the last piece in the line and hop over the other pieces. In Chinese checkers you can move forward by hopping over the pieces in front of your checker. So if you have one piece in the back and a zigzag of other pieces across the board, you can hop all the way down the line of your pieces. You generally want to move your marbles as a group rather than having a lead scout marble or a marble stuck in the back. If you have a marble in front or stuck in the back it is unable to use your other marbles to travel forward. Similarly, if you have a marble way in front it is of no use to the marbles behind it. Marbles can hop on one another to travel forward but they have to be next to each other for this to work. Always look to jump your last marble forward so it doesn't get left behind.
A: Set up your checkers correctly. Keep your pieces toward the center of the board. Avoid stragglers.

Q: Mix together 14c (59mL) of water and 14c (59mL) of baking soda in a small bowl. Add the mixture to the washing machine's detergent container where you normally put the laundry detergent. Do not pour the mixture directly into the main cavity (the drum) of the washing machine. Purchase some distilled white vinegar to help clean the inside of the washing machine. Pour 2c (470mL) of the vinegar directly into the drum. Make sure nothing else is in the machine when you pour the vinegar inside. Once you have added the baking soda solution and the vinegar, run the machine on a regular cycle. Use a full cycle setting, not just a spin cycle or a rinse cycle. Run the machine on the warm/hot setting. Again, make sure you don't have any clothes or other laundry inside the machine while you run it. Otherwise, they will smell like vinegar when the cycle is done. Once you have finished running the machine with the vinegar and cleaning solution inside, wipe down the interior of the washing machine to help remove any remaining vinegar smell. Use a sponge to scrub the inside of the machine. Be sure to get into all of the nooks and crannies or the interior.
A: Make the cleaning solution. Add vinegar. Run the machine on a regular cycle. Wipe down the inside of the drum.

Q: Pour 3 cups (710 ml) of whole milk into a medium pot and place it on the stove. Heat the milk on medium-high for about 5 minutes or until it comes to a simmer. Take it off the heat as soon as bubbles form on the surface, and allow it to cool.You can substitute heavy cream or a combination of whole milk and heavy cream if you prefer. Once the ice cream base is fully mixed, cover the bowl with a piece of plastic wrap and leave it over the ice bath for 20-30 minutes. Alternatively, place it in the refrigerator, and chill it for 3 hours or overnight.
A:
Simmer the milk. Chill the mixture for a half hour.
