Transforming a Cobble Generator into a Super Block Factory in Minecraft

Then create I have run out of bricks I’ve been building with nothing but bricks for like this entire let’s play which is why we’re going to build a factory that produce building blocks including the bricks because my addiction must be fed will make gravel sand clay terracotta all out of the

Single cobblestone generator is such a thing possible yes also a few people pointed out that on my Underside shop there isn’t actually the word Underside spelled up top there’s only under the seat that’s because there’s just not enough space on the sign for the full W

And yeah we could expand the sign but it would make it uneven it’s a whole thing don’t worry though I appear to have found a solution we’re just going to use his full name here we go Andrew website everybody will immediately know exactly what this Shop sells the way I

Did this sign by the way is from the supplementary I’m pretty sure also mode and these are the notice boards you can put in inside them a written book maybe a pattern maybe a map so if you put a book and quill even unsigned one into

The thing into the box here then voila it does its best to display whatever was written in it so that means that if you write a written book with only one letter in it then it will display that letter as big as it can it’s pretty brilliant quite frankly and it is very

Very helpful for doing what we’re doing here but the way we need to start crafting because by goalie we will need a lot of those giant Crusher Wheels today walking back from the recipe pile it is pretty simple to figure out what is it we want to do here brick is

Obviously just smelted clay balls and Clay balls we can smelt using the bulk blasting using the fans clay balls themselves can be have acquired from a few different spots one of which is a 5% chance when crushing gravel through the crusher wheels that is also how you get

Sand but you can also have a much higher chance at when 5% one when washing sand the are the fun washing meaning that we can basically make a farm that produces Cobblestone crushes it into gravel then crushes gravel to produce sand and then washes sand to produce clay balls what’s

More importantly we can done also smelt sand to produce glass or haunt sand to produce Soul Sand and Soul Sand itself could be smelted into scorea or bu washed into nether quarts and gold nuggets though very very very small percentage of those so this is

Once again going to be a giant Tower of priority Shenanigans all leading up to a single cobblestone generator which another the thing about it is pretty much what all of my Farms up until now have been well that should be eight separate Crushers with the giant wheels

Because you need two of them per Crusher I’m going to go fetch the drills you can tell I’ve been hanging out on an island because the sky blockiness of my playthrough is just all over the place there is no reason why I can’t just go and grab all these materials from the

Outside world but it’s just so much more fun to actually make factures and manufacturers and buildings for it so if you don’t mind I’m going to keep doing that okay I got a figure something out here so so let’s give this a try these are brass tunnels that’s not what I wanted to

Craft yeah this is a brass tunnel and these are the brass funnels wow one one letter of what a mistake okay let’s test this out we got a conveyor belt we got the brass belt funnel I’m going to put a funnel here and a funnel here the question here is

Can these funnels actually end enter items as well as they are at receiving them and let’s go it passes by for some reason even though check this out it distinctly supposed to take it take them in huh I am very confused oh I’m not very confused anymore check this out they

Have a little directional triangle on top of them that’s how do you know that’s how you know okay game Let’s uh try this again we’re going to put in one of those one of these and there we go there we go oh my God this makes life so much easier this

Contraption is going to be so much easier to make thanks to this absolutely overpowered Dynamic okay cool awesome wonderful I’ll need a boiler okay this has to be the dumbest boiler I’ve made yet yet that’s absolutely going to be an episode where we make a power station

Based on super heated blazes this is actually like two boilers because uh no matter what I do you can’t seem to get the heat higher than one notch uh with just the campfires and I only have a couple of Blaze burners on me and even if I had something more I don’t really

Have a system in mind right now to have Blaze bers be not like even super heated but just he it in the first place so I just made two boilers this literally easier than trying to figure out a bigger one and now one of these is

Absolutely going to go onto the uh onto the cobblestone generator while another will be using for The Crushers my God Crushers require a lot of energy surprisingly so oh no I run out of lava for my cobblestone generator if only there was some sort of place where I could get

It my God is that a lava Farm how convenient I am dead serious every single time I get to use something that I previously made it’s just it warms my heart so much it’s always so cool okay my plan for this area is that I’m going

To build a kind of a segmented building each segment is going to be five blocks wide and have a chest down the middle so this is going to be the Cobblestone chest here I may or may not add a stone one here I’m pretty sure it’s going to

Be gravel and here I’m going to have sand now naturally I want gravel and sand right next to one another in case I ever want to get into concrete and yep could we make concrete by hand or rather not by hand automatically the answer is I’m pretty sure yes the problem with

That is that while concrete powder obviously is very easily converted via washing um I don’t want to automatically Farm all of the dice for it so I’m not going to bother for the time being if we ever decide to make a automated concrete Factory we can always get a separate die

Farm and then feed these two Farms together so priority for Cobble is to fill out this chest fill out this W and then go further into the being converted to gravel which is the segment that I want to build now then once the gravel is filled obviously we’re going to get

Something of uh something of the sand area sand is going to be made into clay and then finally clay we maybe will actually smelt into bricks actually we will have to smelt and pack it into bricks so it’s going to be a little bit complicated Feit to in yeah the segments

Are definitely not going to hold the actual uh areas that we’re using the rotational speed controllers are going to be the death for me by the way because I really constantly want to just crank it to maximum and see what happens uh what appears to happen is it

It go look at that look at it go something’s telling me that the second wheel needs to be spinning also okay with two wheels it actually does not function at all so we need to lower our appetites for the time being and now it’s spinning the wrong direction uh good job everybody task

Failed successfully okay we need to test this out so I’ll be removing the safety Hopper everybody brace yourself we’re using a weighted ejector to move items around which is always absolutely always an adventure look at it Go ah this is incredible and it is very tempting right now to just not even make

A second set of graning wheels and just ye the gravel back into the same grinder and then separate by the output God that sounds so cool that sounds so enticing yeah it will get clogged up and uh either only output Gra Trel or only output sand it it just got to be a

Nightmare so I okay okay okay look I did craft 14 more crushing Wheels this wouldn’t even be a discussion at all right now if I didn’t run out of stress units on my two U lowest boilers I’ll need I’ll need to make some more all right crank

It that’s too much crank it a little less there we go ah this makes me so happy okay as a test run I’m going to grab a stack of gravel and just ye it down here oh there it goes oh no okay what we got we got

Some sand we got some flint and they got some clay balls okay cool wonderful one clay balls perfectly fine we love that we want that uh so that’s why this item W is back here uh we actually want to filter out each of these three three

Items so yeah for one I remember there being something called smart shs yep there it is and I’m pretty sure that I can set up a filter for a smart Sho but here’s the thing I don’t think I need that rather I don’t think anyone needs that at all ever because well uh

The brass funnels they already have filters on them and I can absolutely y absolutely just do this and uh now I just make uh this bye uh make this into the filter and voila this should work for me yeah ah there you go H there we go

That’s the sand and if we add a second shoot then uh maybe some clay balls are going to fall yep there we go wonderful so we will just need as much shoot for you know for sand as much shoot for gravel and a smart shoot for Flint and

Is the gravel one going to be pointed directly into a lava block yes I’m going to go grab a lava block any excuse to come here I swear I just it’s so fun oh check this out check this out check this out so we can filter a brass funnel

Right and I was like wait can a brass funnel even get something not from a conveyor belt or something like that and uh well I mean you can probably tell by my triumphant uh tone but if we put some sand down here and that sand gets dropped here then we start piling up

Sand down here is and that sand converts into clay balls and only then after it’s Clay balled does it get here into the chest I’m very tempted and you know what I actually will now that I realize um I’m going to just remove all the safety Hoppers cuz like you know safety who

Needs it it and make the farm kind of focus on producing clay balls for a moment it may or may not be primarily because I really want to see uh the weighted ejectors weightly eject yay look at them go oh my God this is the best are you clay son sh

Do and also I need to remember where all the safety Hoppers were I um yeah real struggling here if this stops working it’s definitely my fault but please don’t point that out yeah sure invite me to your moded server I totally I’m not going to just sit there using vanilla

Mechanics like water streams instead of conveyor belts the entire time you know part of me really wants to think that I’m this way because I just know Minecraft like vanilla Minecraft through and through and not because this is me like actively refusing to Lear new mechanics and you know to learn to use

Them efficiently you know what let me know in the comments I’d love to have a poll on which it is yeah you won’t believe me but this is actually all adding up all of this will work the way I wanted to outside of producing do one

One single thing that I actually want to produce and that being of course the brick blocks I don’t actually have right now uh a way to channel clay balls from this wult and onto this conveyor belt because that conveyor belt later will subdivide using brass tunnels because

That’s what they actually can do I honestly cannot do it but I found the use for them using brass tunnels I can divide whatever on this conveyor belt into two separate conveyor belts and then sort them by uh well being smelted but here’s the trick though he’s the

Absolute Galaxy brain I need to put clay balls as well as clay blocks onto this conveyor belt right now and the item world with them is one single block away from the conveyor belt it would be so perfect if we could just like reach into

It grab clay balls from it put them on the onto the belt right here oh my God I’m about to make the single saddest weighted ejector ever okay buddy shift right click here and you’ll be standing here and here’s your brass funnel for uh all the clay balls you’ll be receiving all

Right folks I got the final brain genius moment you can see I installed Redstone link all over this place these are all receivers except yeah this one’s this one’s meant to be basically I added a bunch of redstone links on Hoppers mean to prevent them from sucking in so

Meaning that as soon soon as I flip this lever every single stock pile will be disabled and instead of stock piling into these chests from which I will be you know later taking out everything will go directly into producing brick and Clay so let’s flip it and hope that it flipping Works fingers

Crossed I mean this is a good sign this is a it’s so f i I like it too much let’s go visit the S the saddest injector is it doing its job hello little baby oh it’s not it’s not doing its job because um yeah uh this press is

Hogging the connection currently why aren’t you Noe there it is he did it yes power one block it’s just one block oh my God it’s so stupid and my God that 12% chance of sand becoming clay is really coming in well I was going to say clutch but the opposite of

Clutch it’s ruining the entire procession come on dudes we need so much more and so much faster but there’s not really anything I can do outside of setting up like a bigger boiler for everything I guess but even that would’t help more speed is really not going to

You know make the CH the 12% chance any faster and I did try and give more speed to the cobblestone generator up there didn’t work it just started spewing Cobblestone all over the place and it was uh just really unpleasant so for now I think we’re just

Going to hope that running this in the background will eventually fill in everything that we want it to fill in but now that I think about it there is something we can make to at least speed up the brick production we can take this Redstone link connect it to the chest

Before the brick in it and not let this Factory enter the stockpile mode until it’s done making the bricks you can’t start filling in the item worlds until you’re done crafting brick blocks little missy oh my God I started talking to it this one’s going to need a name as well

Isn’t it I mean once you name your you know undersight alloy Factory Andre website you got to have a name for your uh brick things I mean the first name obviously got going to be breacher cuz that’s what brick is short for well luckily this will have a nice IFK

Session or at least a nice running in the background session now that it’s all more or less feature complete and I have to start building it in fact that building session that IFK session is going to be twice as long cuz I honestly don’t think that we can use a symmetry

One on this baby I mean it’s way too complicated and it’s way too risky to clog up so good luck to me I guess let’s um let’s get Started and that’s enough building for today oh my God this I wish I actually did use the Symmetry want cuz now I look at it this line would probably be fine as a as a mirror one still I really want this build to look good from this side as

Well as that one so it’s going to be a little bit of figuring it out unfortunately though or fortunately I still want this episode to be out on time so I’m going to just uh pause this for the time listen I came back and finished the Airship I absolutely am

Coming back to this but in the meantime there’s a few things that I’m really really happy with for one the build is functioning and uh that’s pretty cool for two I have set up basically a very clear indication of what’s supposed to go in what chest and uh it is going to

Be very convenient to be able to just grab materials from here without having to enter a building another cool thing that we did here or at least will be doing because I only really have one uh display link on me well one I’ll be displaying the amount of materials for

Every single material over here so the fuel level of Terra Cota for example is already here as 21% that is 21% of a single Minecraft chest mind you so it’s not exactly exactly but uh it is pretty cool we’ll be doing much more with that later because we have Vols for

Everything remember the next thing that I’m I’m really happy with is that I have this little control panel uh I got the terracota uh production line switched off or on which I will definitely need to look into and make a little bit nicer uh there’s the Cobble Stone generator

Switch which pretty much disables the entire Farm once and for all because obviously and of course we have the stockpile mode which uh yeah when deactivated makes everything produce very very gradually and when activated uh channels everything directly into bricks which is what we want right now

Oh and the best by far the best part that I got to do with this Factory is this I’m blocking off the spread of the fire from the fan using a black bot that has the careful this is flamable sign on it I’m really happy with the build I’m very anamed with what

It’s going to be once I’m proper finished with the building itself but the factory part I love it this is this is chef’s kiss it’s a total fabrication it’s really nice that we’re able to produce all of these materials uh even if at some point I entirely forgotten that I also wanted

To hunt the sand into Soul Sand and then also get it smelted into glass so I think we’ll be building some sort of a sneaky underground conveyor belt to getat this sand from here and put it into a couple other factories but that all I’ll see you next time
