Mumbo Jumbo – Minecraft: The Self Building Candy Cane! [Day 20!]

Hello everyone this is mumbo and welcome back to another redstone video and today we’re going to be taking a look at probably one of the most useful builds i’ve ever showcased on my channel seriously this thing is so very important you have to build it in your

Survival world it’s just a must it’s one of those things that just has to be done much like an iron farm or a wheats farm or something like that you are going to need this self-building candy cane that is right ladies and gentlemen i’ve created a self-building candy cane using

Redstone and i think it’s pretty awesome so the way that this one works it really is quite simple all we have to do is head down to the bottom and hit this button right here and as you can see our candy cane pops up then not all of the

Sand that drops down into the ground as you can see the candy cane is standing free and tall i think this thing is absolutely epic and i’ve been using it all day long so now i should probably explain to you guys how all of this stuff works so down at the bottom here

We’ve got ourselves a button when we hit that button that sends a pulse through this redstone torch tower now of course that means that it sequentially powers this one this one this one this one and this one which of course powers our five piston extender so that pushes all of

The blocks upwards with all of the sand going right the way up to the top and that is what makes our candy cane pop out of the ground heading back over to the button now we’ve got this little redstone torch which runs into this monostable circuit now because we’ve got this redstone

Torch right here that makes this monostable circuit a falling edge monostable circuit which essentially means that when you hit the button this piston will retract then when the button turns off this piston will extend sending a pulse through all of this redstone up through these half slabs and into

These pistons over here now the reason that these things are important is because if they didn’t exist then all of the sand would stay up by the candy cane which wouldn’t look particularly brilliant you wouldn’t have this airspace right here it would just be a gigantic slab of sand and nobody likes

The way that one looks so when the pulse comes through these pistons here extend pulling back of these pistons to allow the sand to fall down then we have these pistons down at the bottom here which push iron blocks outwards making sure that the sand stops in the correct

Position now the reason that’s important is because otherwise you’d have a little hole in the floor where the sand is and that also wouldn’t look pretty now obviously because this build is a tiny bit on the larger side i’m not going to be doing a tutorial for this one however

I am going to chuck a world download down in the description so that you guys can check it out but i haven’t made a backup of the world which means of course i’m going to have to manually reset the entire thing because this is a one-use type of deal i cannot retract

The candy cane back down into the ground even though that would be really quite awesome but also incredibly complicated so i’m not going to be working on that one now as always i feel the need to mention i am doing these advent calendar videos in collaboration with exuma void so if you

Do want to check out today’s advent calendar video from him there’ll be a link to that one on the screen and also down in the description but unfortunately that is all i’ve got time for today i hope you enjoyed this video if you did please sure hit that like
