Block-placing wands
Block-placing wands are special tools that allow the player to place blocks they would normally not be able to place. They do not consume any mana. Each wand consumes a specific material from the player's inventory (details listed below). There are (Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) 6 / (Old-gen console and 3DS versions) 4 different block-placing wands.

Desktop version, 
Console version, and 
Mobile version, the block can be mined back as Bone, whereas on the 
Old-gen console version and Nintendo

The Hive Wand has a 1/3 (33.33%) chance of being dropped by the Queen Bee. Mining a Hive block placed with the Hive Wand is the same as mining a naturally generated one, hence it can spawn Bees or honey.
