MrCrayfish – ✔️ How to Build the BEST Elevator in Minecraft! (Survival Friendly)

Hey guys how’s it going it is mr. crayfish and welcome back today I’m going to be teaching you guys how to build a simple elevator now this elevator is so simple you can honestly build it within minutes it’s also really survival friendly as well so if you guys

Don’t want to fork out a ton of materials this definitely is the elevator for you it’s also flexible to any height as well so if you want this elevator to go up 100 blocks you can do that if you only want it to go up to 10

Blocks you can do that as well so it can be pretty much customized to any height but that’s enough talking I’m sure you guys want to go ahead and see this elevator right now so we’re gonna head over to crave fine foods here where we actually have this brand new elevator

Installed and here it is so currently we’re kind of at the top of the elevator and this is gonna take us down pretty much into a secret room which is really cool but this can be built for kind of houses above the ground to go upwards to the second storey

So how this works is we simply just stand inside up here then we press this button here and this is going to take us down and here we go we’re going down into the secret room and have a look at this we’ve got aging cheese at the

Bottom here cool as that but yeah that was the elevator so it’s taken us down to the bottom here and as you can see it’s just stopped here and if we want to go back up all we simply have to do is press this button here let’s go take us

Back up to the top here and there we go but how cool is that I honestly think it’s the best elevator you can actually build in Minecraft to date so let’s go ahead and let’s get into this tutorial now but before we start if you thought that was awesome and you enjoyed this

Tutorial today make sure you go ahead and snap our like button we need it snapped right in half if you want to keep up to date with all my latest videos and creations like this one make sure you go ahead and subscribe I suggest you press that post notification

Button so definitely don’t miss out on any of my latest videos but let’s go ahead let’s get into this tutorial now so the materials that you are going to need for this is 5 redstone dust 2 buttons of your choice I’ve just gotten stone ones three sticky pistons one norm

Piston to observer blocks six slime blocks to obsidian and then 64 blocks of a choice now before I go ahead and show you guys how to build this I just want to prove to you guys that this actually is simple so here’s the elevator actually built kind of above surface so

Here is the top part of the elevator nothing complicated about it at oh here’s the bottom of it and have a look at that there is literally nothing down here it is also one wide as well so it is very compact and again very very simple so let’s go ahead and let’s start

Building this now so the first thing that we need to do is dig a three wide by five long by four deep hole this is just going to LA to place it down into the ground and actually have the entrance at your level in the house so

Three wide and then let’s go for towards the back here so one two three four two two two to the left there and then go back to the start dig out these blocks here and then just dig this down three more layers that’s one two and then the last layer here

Three layers and now it should be at four blocks deep come to the front of the hole here and right in the center we’re gonna place a sticky piston we’re gonna place it here facing towards the back place a block in front of that we’re then going to leave a gap and then

Place a block of obsidian on top of that block we’re gonna place two slime blocks next to this slime block here we’re gonna place an observer facing upwards so make sure that output is facing to the top here then we’re going to place a sticky piston on top of that facing

Upwards on top of this sticky piston a place to slime blocks we’re then going to place an observer here next to this top slime block here facing downwards so you should see the output facing downwards here and then we’re going to place a sticky under that again facing downwards

Socially it should look something like this so far we’re then also going to place our two remaining slime blocks on top of these slime blocks here so one and two on top of the sticky piston down there place a block with redstone on top and then block on top of that redstone

On top of this block here we’re gonna place one of our buttons after this block place another block right there and this is actually going to be the platform for the elevator so you can customize this however you like it doesn’t have to be a plank here it can

Be a slab like I used in the video then we’re gonna place a block in front of the top slime here and this is basically basically going to be our elevator capsule here now that is the bottom section what we’ve got to do now is actually build that top section there so

This is pretty much where you guys can decide how high you actually want this to go so what we’re going to do is just cover up the sides here like that and then what you need to do is decide how many blocks you want to go up now maybe

Ever house with already a specific height so maybe you would do it to that but what I’m gonna do is make mine go up 20 blocks so I’m gonna place 20 blocks starting from this block here which is left of the platform of the elevator

There so we’re gonna go 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 and 17 8 18 19 20 we’re then going to go back like this one and then go to to the right so the capsule is actually going

To come up at this block here but we don’t want to have a block there and then let’s build the other side of this real quickly so come up on this side as well then once you’ve got to this point what we need to do is on these two

Blocks here we’re gonna go four blocks up we’re gonna have one here and then behind that block we’re gonna place a obsidian block we’re gonna place one of our blocks of choice in front here behind the Obsidian we’re gonna have a block we’re gonna put our fort remaining

Redstone on these lines of blocks like that and then under this block here we’re gonna place a piston facing downwards and then place our final button under this front block here and that my friends is pretty much it so its head down to the bottom here and let’s

Take this up to the top now in my design I did actually replace this block here with a slab and you can do that if you want this will actually still work with the plank there however I just kind of like that extra Headroom and then let’s

Go ahead press the button here and this is gonna take us up to the top here and you’ll notice when we get to the top it’s actually going to stop at the 20 blocks high here and have a look at that we’re up to our top story here then we

Can go ahead simply head back down by pressing that button and it’s going to take us back down to the ground how cool is that and how simple was that as well there’s literally nothing complicated to this and that even redstone beginners can actually build this themselves but that my friends is

Going to end off this video today hopefully you enjoyed I thought I would do my take on these whole kind of slime block elevator designs because there have been quite popular recently and I have seen a lot of them they’ve always been really over complicated but I

Thought why can’t it just be really simple and do something that is survival friendly that all you guys can actually build so hopefully you enjoyed this design today and if you haven’t already make sure you go ahead and snap that like button and I will see you guys for another video bye
