If you want to fix, rename, or combine enchantments on an item, you'll need an anvil! These are a bit expensive when it comes to iron, but when you get deeper into the game you'll want to repair some of your high quality tools. We will see how to create an anvil in Minecraft survival 1.14, 1.15 and 1.16 in this step by step guide.
Anvils can be done in all versions of the game, be it PE, PS4, PC, iOS, Nintendo Switch, Xbox or any other platform.

To create an anvil in Minecraft, you will only need three iron blocks and four iron bars! Although it's relatively simple, you'll need a stock of irons to make it happen!
We're going to need a lot of iron ore, which can be found pretty much anywhere there's stone to mine. Caves and ravines are great places to find ore. Any open space that gives you a large area to explore makes it easier to spot. You can also see it on the side of a mountain or hill. If you can't find him that way, mine your way down, and you should eventually encounter him. It is one of the most common ores you will find in the game.
We need 27 iron bars to create the iron blocks we need, and we'll need four more iron bars for the base of the anvil. So, start melting with an oven. This will be a long process, you might want to get a few ovens to do it faster!
As mentioned, we need three iron blocks which require a total of 27 iron bars. Fill your crafting table with the bars to make a complete block of iron.
Now that we have all the iron we need, we just need to place it in the crafting table in the correct shape! The recipe for the Anvil is three iron blocks at the top, three iron bars at the bottom, and one iron bar in the middle!
Now you can start fixing, renaming and combining enchantments! To repair most of the time, you can place the resource the tool is crafted with the broken tool to increase the level of durability. You can also combine tools of the same type to create superior durability. It can also combine enchantments to make it a more powerful tool! Renaming simply requires placing the item in the anvil and then changing the name via the text box. All of this will cost you experience levels, so make sure you have enough!
