Platform Printers, stone cobble basalt and ice

show off some machines that I thought were cool designs, half of them made it to survival with my ocean burners and void beaters, but the other half just stayed as concepts that would be too costly at scale

How do I power the top hopper without powering the bottom one?

I want to be able to power the top hopper (circled in yellow) without powering the bottom bottom hopper (also circled in yellow). I don't want to use a loose minecart between the top chest and hopper line.

Hidden Sulfur cube transit - upwards terrain

I've been working on a transit method using sulfur cubes. They travel at ~15 blocks per second after a slime block push.

Finally got all the piston timing on the upwards section figured out. This has taken a lot more time than anticipated, but a fun project.

0t 5x5 instant vault (we did it!!!)

the instant 5x5 vault door using 0 ticks. my biggest 0t door yet.

i don't even know what to say abt if id go over the journey of building id be typing for a while.

i surprisingly had the triple extender closing done as one of the first and knew what to do for the reset but waited with automating it. im pretty proud with the retracting of the triple (:

but most difficulties where at the doubles even now u can see on of them retracting slower on the side but i had worked on the door for a while then so since it technically works i left it at that after solving the other issues with them.

so yeah i managed to get my pc with me and took some time when i was free to finish this my biggest project to date.

happy its here and happy to be able to show it to you all.

im gonna rest now since i kept saying ill work on it a bit longer its almost done until its suddenly almost 3 am.

hope y'all enjoy it and good night/day/all the other times [:

[Java 26.1.2] How do I keep a powered rail and activator rail diagonally adjacent WITHOUT them tilting/connecting?

I have a powered rail and an activator rail placed diagonally — powered rail on a lower block, activator rail one block up and over (directly diagonal). I want them to stay flat and separate, but the powered rail keeps slanting upward to connect toward the activator rail.

I know from the wiki that a rail slants up to join a rail that's one block up, and that "other configurations can be created by placing and removing rails." So I tried the place-and-remove trick: I put a normal rail next to the powered rail on the flat/same level to anchor it, then placed the powered rail — but when I place the powered rail back down, it tilts again instead of staying flat.

Constraints:

  • I can't space them apart by an extra block — the build needs them tight in this exact diagonal position.
  • Java Edition, version 26.1.2.

Is there a placement order or trick that forces both to stay flat and separate in this tight diagonal layout? Screenshot below showing the setup.

is there a way to make a block elevator without any expose redstone?

I'm just trying to put a lone chest in front of my iron farm that will store my iron blocks, I just wanted it to be sleek and I couldnt find a tutorial that doesnt have redstone directly under the chest T-T
Thank you!

My fiancee helped me build an automatic farm!

Super simple but I also think that’s a good thing. It was fun to make and I’m gonna see if I can upgrade it. Love yall

Uh what is going on !!?

The sand and slime are swapping their location with a 1 (redstone) tick clock... is this known??

Is it possible to do a three block extender for staircases (or flying machine door for staircase)

Me and my friend are trying to figure out how to make a certain part of our base harder to find by doing something like the picture. I cannot figure out how to do it, and would appreciate the help. Also, the second picture is what we'd like it to be at rest/not activated (sorry for the crude work). When the staircase looks like the second picture, it would lead up to another room.

Lossless Shulker Loading Systems (WDL & Schematics)

WDL: https://www.mediafire.com/file/mm8bwh87yw0ppg2/Worms_Lossless_Loaders.zip/file

Schematic: https://www.mediafire.com/file/bwqc7x02m9szkvc/Worms_Super_Efficient_Lossless_Loaders.litematic/file

The most compact way to ensure lossless, tile preservation on your shulker boxes.

For context on why the direction is alternated, please refer to this video:

There are only a few ways to ensure proper capture, this is the cheapest, most compact, and most lag efficient way.

Unfortunately, some members of the technical storage community have been downvoting these to hide them from the masses. You don't need the BS to load shulkers. Video coming soon exposing the storage tech community as they refuse to leave me alone.
