This is my latest minecraft build plus a preview of the BluSharks Pistonbolt main station! Thought yall might enjoy the giant hajs lol
I actually managed to snag the username BluSharks on both minecraft launcher and YouTube, stay tuned for more blahaj builds and technical redstone!
First 3 photos are from mid July, last two are from today!
Unfortunately not 1wide-tileable, the stacked minecarts dont play nice sitting next to each other on adjacent blocks.
This machine can unload a shulkerbox at about 95,000 items/hour! 10x hopper speed box unloader
1wt, 4x hopperspeed
​
Consistent empty box collection by locking the unloading hoppercart via activator rail and observer.
Kinda sus observer placement inside the minecart hitbox but hey it works. *sticky piston on the back using the blue stained glass to update observer is a toggle state and box collection will not work if it is not set accordingly. Glass must be in front of the observer's face while idle, like shown in the photos*
​
​
No matter how i aligned the minecarts, there was always a favored one that does all of the work initially and the second one kicks in once the first has buffered. This means that there's a period of about 6 or 7 seconds when first unloading a box where the system only outputs at 2x speed and then once the first hoppercart is saturated the second starts pulling and it bumps to 4x until its done unloading.
​
To align minecarts:
​
​
3.place activator rail and fence on middle 2 blocks, place hoppercart on activator rail and push it into the fence
​
they'll have enough to smoke out the whole shiver for sure 😵💫
The minecart unloads the box at 8x speed but can only output through the droppers at 4x speed, leading to one minecart doing all of the work until it buffers which is when the second minecart will come in and split the load.
​
Other downside: two seperate water streams.
​
​
Observer is pushed downwards into place with a piston after the unloading cart (on the activator rail) has been aligned

-The comparing crafter (the one by the observers) has all 9 squares selected giving 9 signal strength for the item crafter to compare against.
-Item crafter has 8 of 9 slots selected leaving one open for the single item crafting recipe. Example shown for slices with SSI item filter on ice use lectern on page 9 for comparing signal strength. Item filter hopper must be pointing at the ice, not down, in order to work! This causes the locked hopper to pull instead of the filter hopper pushing :)
-Hoppercart hitbox is sitting in the middle of 4 hoppers pointing down into doublechests. Zero-ticked glass, covering hoppercart is optional but does protect hitbox from misalignment after building. Push glass downwards onto the hoppercart with a piston and lever to do this.Falling gravity block like sand or concrete powder also work .
I built this for my wither skeleton farm to be able to grab bones out of the item stream and put them right into a crafter to craft bone blocks. Bonemeal is useful for so many things though so I thought I'd share my solution here! :3 example schematic
To extend storage it has to be double hopperspeed on each double chest, otherwise hoppers will buffer and the machine is no longer lossless. This machine also crafts iron copper and gold nuggets but that recipe makes 9 items for every inputed ingot at hopperspeed meaning the hoppercart will buffer and the first double chest is the buffer until it starts spitting loose items out the side. Bonemeal and wood planks are completely lossless at hopperspeed though!

mobs/items drop onto the blue glass, guaranteeing there is always a 2x2 of blocks at the bottom of the chamber that will deal fall damage. these drops are then consolidated onto a single block and can be dispersed however you see fit.
Forgot to demonstrate: to keep the item entity hitboxes completely on top of the ice without any overlap just replace the honey block with a glazed terracotta or leaf block.
shown here pushing north of 150k drops/hour for a guardian farm!
I dunno what it is but something about torturing the seeds with optical media really makes them grow up fast!! I made the piggy seedling pot 25 years ago in preschool and just found it in my mom's garage :) northern lights X banana kush X grandaddy purp genetics bred by yours truly💚
The smols guilt trip me out of my pizza rolls every time 😭
not sure I believe them. would you trust your smols with an orbital strike cannon?!
