Hey everybody welcome to my minecraft tutorial this is episode number 25 in my how to survive and thrive series and today I’m going to show you how to make a water ladder last episode and number 24 I made a water elevator and that was cool and it worked fine but it is now Obsolete science the new method of vertical water travel is called a water ladder Yahoo so that gives me an excuse to make one inning you an excuse to watch and I’m going to do it right here above my mind this is my mining operation I’m standing up above it’s way down there I’ve already dug out my mine shaft the elevator shaft tunnel that’s the old-fashioned way down there there are stairs it kind of zigzag around slow and boring and the ladder is going to go right here so the first thing you need to be concerned with is the direction The way this glitch works and it is a glitch is that the water and your water ladder needs to be flowing north has to be facing north or east but I’m going to go with north because it’s easy to determine a north direction simply look up with the clouds clouds travel north There they go going north so that makes this myself perfect so the water is going to flow out from here it’s going to hit that wooden ladder and then drop straight down now let’s head down to the bottom and I’m going to show you how big and wide This shaft needs to be and now I’m using wooden ladders here some people use signs ladders to me are more efficient because it uses less wood and it provides a method for up and down travel when this water glitch gets fixed and it is surely to be fixed eventually alright So we have this one two three lengths one block wide and at one two three this way with a one block wide doorway and as you can see here’s my mining operation there’s my office and down to the mines so this would be perfect for quick Travel so go ahead and well you know you’re not going to do that right now as you’re watching but know you could pause it and do that let’s dig out that little bit of a tunnel and then we’ll head back up top and I’ll show you why urn just Kidding I know I’ll get it later really let’s show you how to do the water now you will need a bucket of water and you go to place it there at the very top notice it flows north perfect just the way the clouds are going that’s what we need Hits the ladder stops flows straight down and creates a little puddle down there where it shouldn’t but I can block that off later okay now the tricky part take a block whatever your building material happens to be and block off the top now I need to put another block Every other square so not adjacent we don’t want it directly next to the ladder we want it beneath the ladder and above the ladders and that creates this little one block flow of water and here comes the trickiness see if I can get this right because I’m going to be going Up and down a ladder I need to face this way and get ready get ready get ready and go I missed I missed one it’s not so bad I’ve had worse and the bottom one so I missed one okay and you got to get that last one to there Alright well that was better than the last few time times I tried this this is about the fifth take so now watch how this puppy works I’m gonna go kill that of the block and you just face your ladder and I’m facing south right now otherwise this would work and here’s the One that I missed did I miss yes this one has to go and it needs to go right there instead OOP maybe the water did I get that right no I did not the water stopped flowing okay so have a little mishap here I’ll get a little bit Of a stopper there but I can get another piece of water and dump it in there and fix that whole little gap here most likely oh shoot I’m not there oh boy I really messed that up didn’t I okay did I get it no okay got it Touch on I gotta get it right in there hold on get the hop right sorry for all this and I was little goofy there we go okay so just like that there’s the ladder so down travel isn’t quite as fast not with these wooden ladders here If you put signs here you’ll just slip straight down very quickly so there’s it a slight advantage to having signs that if you want fast travel however if you have other other level levels layers and I might eventually dig over that way and have multiple floors then I want to be able To go down slower so I can stop off and my multiple floors and I can put up some torches here so I can see what’s going on so there you have it that’s the water ladder so you walk up face it and just push forward and you shoot straight up And now on the outside here you may want to put a fence around and keep the animals from dropping in and other hazards like creepers dropping in on you down below so little fence around here should keep them out and that is all good so there you go that’s the water Ladder the new-and-improved vertical method of water travel or a glitch travel I hope you enjoyed take care have a good day bye bye Video Information
