Minecraft circle chart

Pixel circles for every common diameter, with block counts and a row-by-row guide. Same maths as the Circle Generator, so anything here opens in the tool for ovals, thick outlines and spheres.

Need a size that isn't here, or an oval?Open the Circle Generator — any width and height up to 512, with a copyable build guide.

How to read the chart

Each square is one block. Guide lines fall every 5 blocks; the centre lines show whether the circle has a single centre block (odd sizes) or a double centre (even sizes). Circles are symmetrical, so the row guide lists the top half only: build it, then mirror it. Counts are for a thin outline unless stated. Thin outlines touch diagonally and use the fewest blocks; thick outlines have no diagonal gaps, so you can walk around them and water can't leak through.

Odd or even?

Pick odd diameters when the circle needs a true centre block: a fountain, a beacon, a tree trunk, a spiral staircase. Pick even diameters when the circle must sit centred on a 2-block-wide feature or an even-width wall. Both work; the difference is only where the middle lands.

Bigger circles

Above 50 blocks, use the Circle Generator: it handles up to 512, prints run lengths on every segment and shares a link that reopens the exact shape. For spheres and domes, the Sphere & Dome Generator gives every layer, not just the equator.
