To make an armor stand in Minecraft, you need the following materials and steps:

• Materials:
  • 1 Smooth Stone Slab
  • 6 Sticks
• Crafting process:
  1. Open your crafting table (3x3 grid).
  2. Place the 1 Smooth Stone Slab in the center slot of the crafting grid.
  3. Arrange the 6 sticks around the slab: 3 sticks in the left column (top, middle, bottom) and 3 sticks in the right column (top, middle, bottom).
  4. This arrangement will craft one armor stand.
• After crafting, place the armor stand in the world and you can equip it with armor or other items for display

Note: To get a smooth stone slab, you need to first smelt regular stone in a furnace to obtain smooth stone, then craft slabs from that smooth stone
