Insane Minecraft Redstone Build: Working Elevator Tutorial!

It’s really really high if only I could just get to the top I need I know something like a lift or an elevator hang in a minute well I’ll just make one good morning good afternoon good evening and good night depending on what time you’re watching this next episode on my

Tutorial series and it is good to see you now I have been asked a gazillion times to do this tutorial so I thought you know what I think a gazillion is probably enough so we are gonna make an elevator or if you’re in the UK a lift same eat different gravy it’s an

Elevator it’s a lift it’s something that you stand still and you go up in and we’re gonna do that today it’s got a bit of redstone hopefully you’ll be able to follow it if you can’t follow it make sure you pause the video to catch up it’s absolutely fine to do that or

Rewind a bit you do what you got to do if you enjoy the video make sure you slap the like button give it a bit of a share on social media it’d be lovely to see it out there and if you really enjoy it why don’t hit the subscribe button that’d be great

Let’s get into the build now now the inventory for this one isn’t actually that bad winning Pistons Dicky Pistons slime blocks redstone torches some glass just so you can see some redstone some repeaters whatever block it is you’re going to build a structure if you lift I’ve got red sandstone simply because

It’s a sandstone world I thought it might look will be interesting a button and some different wall maybe just to put your circuitry on let’s get on with it now you don’t actually need an awful lot of space for this particular one is three by six and only one be really

Really simple let’s get on with it the first thing you’ve got to do is get your first piston on so go to the right hand side and count one two three put your fist and facing up there get a slime block you’ll see why that’s important in a minute and stick that

Next to the piston so the middle to there you can see you’ve got the piston and the slime block next to the slime block we need to put just one a little bit of redstone then we get whatever it is we’re building our build out of so

Ain’t we stick it on the redstone you can see I’ve highlighted the Redstone not the block the redstone that then appears on the top there get a button which is obviously going to activate this so I stick the button on the side of that and if you click that button

That should make the piston go up I really this works thank goodness for that now we’ve got to create just a tiny little logic circuit so here we’re gonna put a block next to that bit of redstone and here we put on the back of that block a

Torch you can see that torch goes on really nicely but because this is a not gate I think that’s what it’s called and not gate when you click that the torch goes off and then it comes back on again very simple little piece of redstone circuitry there what we’ve got to do now

Is expand that little circuit just a little bit so we’re going to have two blocks there we want to put a block on top of this redstone torch you can see I’ve highlighted the torch not the block or anything around it the torch that puts one on the top there and then we’re

Going to put another block on at the top of that one there what if I’ll actually get it there or whenever you can do it you know you can write on on here we’re going to put some redstone one and two and that redstone comes on very nicely

Thank you very much and on the other side of this we’re gonna put a torch there it should go off yes it does and hopefully this torch will go off – yes it does now theoretically when I press this button that redstone torch turn that redstone torch to the other and

There will go on because this race down here turns off let’s try it perfect that works great it’s time to get the sticky pistons working now and it’s actually a really really simple circuit we want to get our sticky pistons facing towards us so I select that sticky pistons I’m

Going to put a block on here because I can never get this bit right I block there and put a sticky piston and facing towards us this way another sticky piston facing towards us that way break that block and then on here we want to normal Pistons or facing upwards just

Like that okay so that’s the first flaw that easy now we want to put another floor on we get our block and we get our sticky pistons facing us again this way and then our pistons facing that way and that you keep going as high as you want

So I’ve decided to go up that high you can go way less or you can go right up to the limit at the top you make this elevator as tall as you want so now all we have to do is circuit it up make sure all the redstone is there let’s get

Ourselves a tower of the blocks we’re making our lift out of all the way up to the level of the very top part right there get it exactly the same on the other side make sure it’s level whoops are fallin up keep going again keep going up and up

And up and up and up and up and up and up and up obviously make sure you’ve got enough resource to be able to do that if you’ve gone up to the limit it’s gonna be very very high right so get the level of your first bit here you can see that

And we’re gonna come out one block just like that and we’re gonna put a little bit redstone on top of that then we need to put another block there and we need to get a repeater now you have to be really careful when you’re putting this

Repeater in could you go to have it facing that way you see that it’s facing out that way and set that to two ticks so let’s just finish off that circuit there so we want to get a block in there with a repeater facing inwards to walk

That back block set that to two ticks very easy and then up here we want to get another block so that repeater there is facing into that so really quite simple you’ve got redstone there repeater there repeater there and a block there let’s just get that

Duplicated on the other side so we want a piece of block there a block there a bit of redstone right there repeater and going out of this block like that set that to two ticks then I get another block down here repeater facing into that block like that set to two ticks

And that block there and that is literally that part of the circuit complete I just realized I made a mistake this lower repeater should be on one tick on both sides not too I’m getting my repeaters confused so if you’re on Pocket Edition any repeater on two ticks

Needs to be on four ticks but these repeaters are on one tick really important to make that differential now this redstone can look really complicated when it’s finished but it’s really not you see this bit of redstone here we’re just going to put a block on top of that redstone then we’re

Going to put the redstone on top of the block and we’re going to put a block on top of the redstone then we’re going to put redstone on top of the block and you’re going to put block on top of the redstone and you’re going to put

Restless opener pop that is not a broken record that is literally the way you are going to do it all the way to the top block and redstone block and redstone all the way to the top of your build it really is very very simple so let’s get on with

That and then you’ve got the first bit of the build now let’s get the next bit in and for the next bit just get a block above the repeater then again so it’s basically a block next to the block that’s got the redstone on it all the

Way up to the top just like that then actually need that one there so let’s come around this side and exactly the same on the other side let’s go down 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 now remember you don’t have to do that many you could do more it’s

Entirely up to you and on this block here just like you have on the block underneath it you see there that block underneath it you need to put your repeater coming out of the block now sometimes it’s difficult to get in there so like that like that set to 2 ticks

Again if you’re in PE do this to 4 ticks and it will work much better it’ll actually work because if you don’t set it to a 4 ticks it won’t work tool just go up to the top and repeat that on both sides you can see there the repeaters on two

Ticks let’s get this on the other side as well And you go you got repeaters all the way up on both sites again set to two ticks for the PC or the console and four ticks for MC PA so watch this bit really carefully we’re gonna put a block on the side of this piston here can you see

Where my cross is that this repeater here is basically going into so we’re going to put one there one there one there one there one there and so on right up to the top like that we’re going to do it exactly the same on the other side one two three four five six

Seven eight just like that and we’re going to put a redstone torch coming out of each one like this all the way down and then we do the same on the other side all the way up and then we are going to get a another piece of block

There we go and we’re going to stick it on top of that redstone torch like that all the way down again it is just repetition repetition repetition the whole time it’s just doing the same thing over and over again which makes it really really expandable which is

Absolutely brilliant up and up and up and up and up and up and up up and up and then we get another redstone torch we put it off the side these restaurant torches should turn off yes they are all the way down to the bottom and then

Around and the same going up here 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 so the last very careful placement is these redstone torches on the inside place a block on top of each one of those so you’ve got kind of a bit of a step in effect I guess you could

Call that all the way up to the top like that and then do exactly the same on the way down on the other side so on top on this one no I haven’t on top and top all the way down repeat in for however high is you have made your lift you have

Made your elevator and that is it now the danger at the back here is that when you get lifted all the way to the top of this you get basically thrown all the way back down to the bottom because just being lifted up and then the piston

Comes out of your way and it lifts you back down again and you full either to your doom if you fall on the piston or on the slime block and you do a lot of bouncing so what you need to do is get a block on the top of those two sticky

Pistons there can you see so this is the back of the sticky pistons that you’ve got at the top of your pile put a block on the back of each of those and then get another sticky piston set which is there facing inwards and then we need to

Just connect that up here and we’ve got all the secretary we need already so get a repeater align yourself fellow come on you know what you’re doing get a repeater facing there right and because we want a little bit of a delay at the top we’re going to set this to four

Ticks not the two ticks that we had before and then we get a block coming out the back of that no you can do that press shift so let’s get the block out the back of that and run the power all the way along here get our redstone

One two three four and that will power those blocks there to push you out of the lift into whatever platform that you need to be pushed into now I would recommend wholeheartedly that you put blocks on the front of this and I’m going to use different color blocks but

You can use a yellow block because it’s really vivid you use whatever block it is you want and I’m going to stick those there and they will kick me out very nicely thank you very much of the elevator just want to get a platform you need to land on when you actually come

Out of the elevator which is up here yes one two all the way around like that and let’s just put most hockey up and just put it around there where well it just looks a little bit better isn’t it so so that’s the platform that

The elevator is going to push you on to so let’s move that out just a little bit further and that is really the end of the elevator now that what you do need to do now is to make sure you don’t fall out forwards and the way I’m going to do

That is using glass that we want glass coming all the way up the top to the top of your elevator and then you’ve got it your glass is complete so now you’ve got your completed elevator you just want to kind of clean it up a little bit let’s

Get the glass at the front here and we want to fill this up with some I know some light stuff so I’ve got glowstone I want to put glowstone in here because otherwise it’s can potentially look really dark so in we go let’s go up here

And put glowstone in there all the way up to the top I reckon and just give it a nice kind of almost like a floor effect we know when we’ve gone past the floors because we’ve gone to the glowstone and you know what I’m thinking that needs to be filled out as well

That’s got a bit at least too high because person is too high aren’t they so let’s get too high on that and that acts almost like a door let’s surround it with our red sandstone like that and we’ve got another door to the elevator there that anyway and then all we need

To do is just kind of smart on this whole thing up which I’m going to do right now and then we have our finished elevator looks pretty cool nice block that could put that into a nice high-rise Tower or anything else you might want to put your elevator into now

The last thing we’ve got to do is test it cause quite frankly we haven’t tested it yet which is always dangerous we were inside our elevator we’re standing on both of these one foot on each of these blocks and we just need to hit this button to go on

And we get pushed out by the block they’re absolutely brilliant and we’re at the top of our elevator and we can see everything around us we can see the rising portcullis that we did before we can see those secret doors that we did over there and to get down were you

Going to do is jump down onto your slime block make sure you shop on the right side so you don’t die and there you are bang and you’re bounced beautifully and if you press shift you’re just stopped there you go and you walk out if you enjoyed that video then make sure you

Let me know hit the like button I don’t know you like it unless you hit the like button that’s how YouTube designed it if you like button I know you liked it leave me a comment down below maybe there’s something else you’d like me to

Try and work out how to build and I can have a go at that for you as well make sure there’s a comment do share it on social media it’d be great to see it out there and Twitter and Instagram and goodness only knows what other stuff you

Are using at the moment and please please please if you haven’t already smash that sub button hit notifications so you know what’s going on YouTube’s really screw at the moment and I will look forward to seeing you in another video really soon you take it easy now bye
