Hey what’s going on everybody I’m animus J and welcome to another minecraft redstone tutorial this is a two way water elevator but as you can see behind me there we’ve only got one water column and that’s because this is a bi-directional now this tutorial should work on all versions you hear me guys All skin/”>versions all versions of Minecraft this should be able to work on if you do it in your world and it does not work first thing before you say it doesn’t please go into the discord and we will help you figure out where you might have Gone wrong and if it does not work on one specific edition then I will publicly apologize to everybody but it should work on all of them so let’s take a look as you can see here I have my very fancy mine entrance this is where I Get all of my diamonds but I have one single water column and I’m gonna hop in right now and it’s taking me down I’m gonna go ahead and double tap forward in order to swim even faster now I’m gonna hold sneak so that I don’t burn myself On this magma down here at the bottom and then what I’m gonna do is first let me go ahead and put myself into survival mode because it just makes it easier without the flying now I’m gonna hit this button you can see we got soul sand there I’m just gonna count to three Should be long enough right now and I’m gonna hop into here and you can see it shoots me straight up to the top and oh we ran into a little I got in just a little bit early that’s what that was but now if I wait you’ll see these Bubbles are gonna change from coming up to going back down and you can already see the magma block down there at the bottom has changed out let the water catch up to it if I hop in there we go look at that now we’re going back down Again so once you hit that button it’s gonna change out for soulsand and then it’s going to on its own change back into a magma block after a certain amount of time has passed now the great thing about this guy’s is you can customize how much time it takes to swap Back and there it is just right there that’s right so no matter how high you are going you can make this custom to your world let’s see how we build it okay so what are we gonna need in order to build this we’re going to need the following Quantities of items you are gonna need six redstone dust but it’s always good to bring extras just in case two redstone repeaters two redstone comparators one redstone torch you’re gonna need two slime blocks one sticky piston to hoppers this is any kind of block that you’re gonna place your Redstone on just so that you know it has redstone on it you’re going to need a bucket of water and it doesn’t have to be a sec you’re actually gonna only need maybe five of them you will need as much help as it’s gonna take for you to get To the top of whatever your of your your hole that you’re gonna dig your elevator rather so for instance I’m on 63 and I’m going all the way down to ten so I’m gonna need just under a stack of kelp to go from ten back up to sixty three in Order to complete my water sources that’ll make sense in just a minute you’re gonna need a magma block a button a trapdoor and you will need soul sand as well now let’s get in how to do it once you’ve chosen a place for your water elevator now mine’s gonna be going Down yours can be going up if you want it to go up whatever you want to do just go ahead and get your chamber dug out or built up so because this is gonna be from my mind in order to find lots of diamonds what I’m gonna do is I’m going To go all the way down to level ten let’s see and one more there we go now coming back up to the top I ran into a couple of caves I’m gonna go ahead and close all of those off and Here I am at the bottom of my hole with nowhere to go So I’m just going to dig out a little bit of an area for me to be able to move around in there we go so this is the way that my mind is going to be going in this direction okay so what I’m gonna do first is I’m gonna place a button Actually you know I’m gonna take I’m going to take out this coal first and let’s go ahead and grab my redstone blocks and I’m gonna place one right there and then I’m gonna put a button on top of it it could be any flavor of button It doesn’t matter it doesn’t have to be wooden and then the next thing that I’m gonna do is I’m going to put a trapdoor right here now what that’s gonna do is that’s going to make it so that one your water is not going to spill out but to Any mobs that might come let me just grab a zombie really quick here any Mabi bobby’s any zombies that come are not going to be able to get out so you see this guy he’s trapped in there so if someone happens to wander into your elevator from either direction they’re Not gonna be able to get in if they’re not already or out if they’re in it already the exception to that obviously is zombie zombie kids kids aam behaves on bees I don’t know I don’t know what they’re actually called you guys but the little ones and moving right along what We’re going to do is we are going to now get water going all the way up to the top now if you’re doing a mine like I am and you’re now stranded at the bottom here’s an easy thing for you can that you can do okay I say easy it’s not as Easy but you can do it alright let me go into survival mode so what you can do is take your water bucket look up you want to jump and place water swim up to the top and then what you’re gonna do is you’re gonna pick up your water and You’re gonna place more all right and then you’re going to keep on doing that until you can get all the way up to the top again now once you get up to the top you’re gonna go ahead and place your water all the way on your top block and then Actually we’re gonna what we’re gonna jump back down again once you’re at the bottom I went ahead and put in some sea lanterns just for light what we’re gonna do is we’re gonna plant kelp and we’re gonna plant it all the way up and the reason we’re doing this is because kelp Inside of a water block will turn a block that is not a source block into a source block of water and that’s necessary for our bubble column to work so I’m just gonna swim all the way to the top placing down kelp all along the Way until I hit the very top and then we’re just gonna shoot all the way back down again now once you’re back at the bottom we’re gonna go ahead and break out that block but the kelp is on and we’re gonna replace it with a magma buck Just like that and all your kelp should come falling back to you in case that was super important kelp you will get it back don’t worry all right so now at this point if you need to get anything back from the surface what you can do is You can trade that for a soul sand but then of course you’re going to be able to get back down from that direction so hopefully you have everything with you at this point and what we’re gonna do is I’m gonna come over here to the right of My button and I’m gonna dig down three blocks one two and three and then I’m gonna punch out a couple blocks in each of the directions so that I can build up my redstone machine you don’t need a ton of room probably three by six or so Should do it okay so if you dug out a little bit of an area you should be good it doesn’t take a ton of room but you’ll be able to see the kind of space that we need in just a second alright so go ahead and grab your redstone block and You’re gonna place it directly below the block that is holding your button and we’re gonna put a spot of redstone right there we’re gonna put a torch if you are standing underneath your magma block that torch is gonna go off to the right-hand side and then what we’re Gonna do is we’re going to do a spot of redstone I’m gonna go ahead and break those I’m gonna put down a redstone block I’m gonna put a spot of redstone on top of it and then I’m gonna break out those blocks right there and then I’m going to have to hoppers going into each other just like so next what I’m gonna do is I’m gonna put a comparator on this block going into my redstone with the torch on it let me go ahead and put my my hopper back and then I’m going to have a repeater facing into that hopper with a spot of redstone right there and then what I’m gonna do is I’m going to break out couple blocks right here I’m going to put a comparator coming off of that hopper and then I’m going to put a redstone block like so And then I’m going to put a repeater right there so the next thing we’re going to do is we’re going to set up the sticky piston so I’m gonna put a slime block like so and you want to make sure that there’s nothing touching your slime Block at all except for that magma block alright so I’m going to break out this block as well and this block as well that way when my slime block moves back and forth it’s not going to touch anything at all once you’ve cleared the area around your slime block you’re Gonna go ahead and break the block so here is my hole that I dug my button alright so we have the repeater coming into here and what I’m gonna do is I’m going to put wool right there wool right there redstone spots and then my sticky Piston is going to go right there facing the slime block I’m gonna put soul sand right there and then another sticky piston now let’s go ahead and test that out just to make sure that it works I’m gonna go ahead and just put down a torch And if I come up here and I see my piston has extended and the soul sand is now there that’s great let me go ahead and break the torch and make sure everything goes back to normal let’s come down here and let’s make sure that we didn’t move any other blocks that we Don’t want to move and if all of that is in order then you are ready to go let’s put our redstone back into here and that is it everything is ready to go we’re just going to do a timer now in order to you figure this out what you want to do is Estimate the amount of time it takes you to get to the top of your elevator and then we’re gonna do a little bit of math but basically so one item takes about 0.8 seconds so if we have 10 items that’s eight seconds now what I found Was a good amount of time or my elevator was 16 items so I’m gonna put those into either one of the hoppers it doesn’t matter which one and mine did activate for a couple of seconds there because of the hopper that I put it in it went Ahead and reset if I come up here and I press the button should see 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 there we go so we have just about 16 seconds that’s enough for me to be able to make it to The top with the amount of blocks that I need to travel I’m going to go ahead and close that back up now in pressing the button what you want to do is you want to press it from out here your trapdoors gonna close then you want to give it a Couple seconds because you want to wait for those bubbles to show up and show that they’re fully traveling to the top you see how they’re still going down right there now those ones are going up now I can go in I’m in creative mode let Me get out of creative mode and you can hear that my my timer already changed it out behind me but my column was still going up and right now still is going up if I give it a second it’s gonna change to going back down so you want to give Yourself a little bit of a buffer but really you just want to kind of play around with it so if you find that you need more time or less time you can come down here to your hopper add more items into it take items away from it whatever It is that gives you that perfect amount of time to be able to get to the top of your elevator then of course the last step is just to decorate this and make it look as fancy as you want so that’s it for this tutorial you guys I hope That it helps you out
