How to make a Warped Sign in Minecraft

This Minecraft tutorial explains how to craft a warped sign with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.

In Minecraft, the warped sign is a new type of sign that was introduced in the Nether Update. What makes the warped sign so unique (compared to Overworld signs such as oak, spruce, birch, jungle, acacia, dark oak) is that warped signs can not be destroyed by fire.

When you make warped signs, the crafting process will create 3 warped signs at a time.
