Step 1:  Get Cobblestone. Cobblestone is the most common type of stone. This is the stone to use to craft a furnace.  Also, it is the stone that you can refine into smooth stone.

Step 2:  Get Coal, or Wood. Coal or Wood is needed to get your furnace fire started.  You will find coal in stone areas.  Look for the blocks that have black pixels in them.

Step 3:  Build the Furnace by using 8 Cobblestone blocks in the Minecraft crafting menu.  Every block should be filled, except the middle one. This is how you craft the Furnace.

Step 4:  Turn Cobblestone into Stone with the Furnace. Use the coal and put it into the bottom of the furnace.  In the top put your Cobblestone.  Once you put both in the furnace, flames are burning and Cobblestone is turned into Stone.

Step 5: Turn Stone into Smooth Stone with the Furnace. Repeat the exact same process.  Take the Stone you created in the furnace in the first place, add coal and you will get Smooth Stone.
