andyisyoda – Minecraft 1.9 New Building Tips and Ideas

Welcome crafters oh shush we guy welcome crafters my name is andy and this is an update video minecraft 1.9 i can’t work in these conditions go away we stupid thing how to use the features the blocks the new stuff from 1.9 to make our creative buildings just awesome

I’ve set out quite a few things to show you let’s get going look at the paths they’re brilliant all you need is a wooden shovel and you can start whacking the grass and making some paths i thought a kind of a rough and ready path like that looks like

Someone’s driven up to your house in a horse and car or a car maybe and i tell you what once you start making paths you just can’t stop actually once you’ve made a path you can pick it with your pick key or button and then you can

Place it anywhere you like look at the trapdoors they’re standing up of their own accord we’ll come to that in just a second maybe you could make a planter or does it look like maybe something cows would eat hay out of or horses i don’t know anyway coming back to the trapdoors

In a minute look at this i’m making a little letterbox here so holding down shift up hitting the item frame onto the door and then one two three with a shield and it looks like a little letterbox let me know what you think is it too derpy

But this is just awesome being able to place wooden trapdoors one two three four stack them up wherever you want whichever way the face you can open them up the floating trapdoors is one of the best features of 1.9 and what better use than to make a door this door is six

Blocks wide and i tell you what i think it looks absolutely brilliant with these things sticking up just like that kind of bifold concertina doors i’ve used six uh panels because the gap is six wide you can imagine that folding shut and then extending to there that would be a

Really cool door now the purple pillars all the purpur blocks are really a very saturated and difficult color to use but look if you use light gray or gray next to it this color works really well for example if i take another saturated super bright color like magenta carpet and try and

Make some shelves it just doesn’t look good but with some gray some black or maybe some white next to it then that just looks a lot better there i think you agree then too bright that also these blocks are directional so placing them like that means that the pattern goes that way

And then you can place them up the way and you can see the pattern goes up the way just like that not bad but these are difficult to use blocks such a bright color okay moving on little bathroom detail for you here there’s your bath and there is your

Shower curtain rod these are of course the end rods which are an unbelievable addition just one idea and of course you back the purper block the purple pillar it could be a very bright wall in the bathroom maybe what do you think these are do you like

These little things holding up my little side bench here these are these weird dragon heads and look what happens when you put a block of redstone beside them their mouths start moving i’m not sure we can use that creatively in house building but look if you face the wall

It makes maybe a little support for a bench what do you think let me know of course you might be aware that stained glass in fact any glass is just a little pillar of glass i think it’s brilliant makes little tables we could also use the end rod to make a

Nice table lamp now if you want to use the creeper head on this end rod it won’t fit on top first of all so what we have to do is put down any old block put down your creeper head and then you could use a little android like that you’ve made

Yourself a little green lamp here’s another chair design i think there’s going to be lots and lots of chair designs coming from this minecraft 1.9 update because you can put trapdoors now onto snow layers you get this uh cute little chair design have i done it well underneath um i’ve got levers

So you place your iron trap doors they’ll be nice and flat like i just showed you and then you flick your levers and that makes them go upright so they should be like that to start with flux or levers that you have to put underneath boom boom boom and then you’ve got an

Awesome cool chair design love it another dragon head idea does it look like a toaster hopefully you were saying toaster before i said it it just gets placed in the corner like that of a wall and you’ve got yourself a little dragony egg toaster hopefully it doesn’t eat your breakfast

Moving on um i’ve got some dragon heads used in a wall divider i’ll show you how to do that in a minute now you can put dragon heads on the wall but for me that one looks a little bit too alive so here’s one that looks a lot deader slain 2016 andy is

Yoda be embarrassed mr dragon because i am a noob when it comes to survival okay so what do we need to do that let’s grab a few ingredients here we need um redstone block armor stand piston and of course a dragon head and let’s dig into the wall stick an armor stand

Down a little dragon head on top do you get the idea can you predict what’s going to happen then i’m going to use some blocks of redstone here i’m going to get busy with my pistons one two three and it pushes the stone into the dragon head to get rid of the

Pistons first seal up seal up your wall and there we go a little dead dragon head on the wall of course tables don’t need to be just little ones like that one there it can be big tables if you use some string and some carpet right on top

These look like awesome table legs to me okay dragon heads as a room divider it is possible let me show you how this works so we go one two three turn around and it’s a one a two a three just like that then when you take this block out underneath you can

Kind of see the bottom jaw of the dragon and oh oh don’t be squint mr dragon one two wow straighten up straighten up i tell you you get the idea right and you do this all the way down the wall let me just do one more one more row

Get these dragons to behave not so easy there we go and you just do that all the way down pretty cool room divider i love it okay another possible room divider this is all i could come up with with the chorus plant the chorus plant has to go on end

Stone blocks it is a mighty weird construction could that be a room divider i’m not sure be careful with these things because they’ve got a tendency to yeah do that how did you get up there i did not put that block there by the way this is a spawn

A shulker a shulker that little block you saw on the intro these are weirdly things but they are blocks i’ve got an idea how to use that so hold on your horses i’ll show you in a minute but very quickly another super cool room divider because the iron bars

Don’t want to join on defenses look at that love it um yeah spawn shockers shush weirdo weirdo alert okay imagine walking along a really dusty dingy scary corridor maybe in an adventure game and you see a little armor stand and you think oh well yeah it does that that would scare me
