wattles – How To Build STORAGE SILOS! | The Minecraft Guide – Minecraft 1.14.4 Lets Play Episode 58

Hello ladies and gentlemen boys and girls my name is waddles and welcome back to the minecraft guide so we’re starting off in the air today getting a nice sky view of this whole area it’s such a cool looking area I don’t like to blow into my own sails but I mean I have

To be honest I really like how it’s turning out and today we are going to add another thing that will level up the Seoul area even more today we are heading to storage city oh yeah oh yes oh yeah it’s it’s the day you’ve been waiting for probably maybe not today

We’re gonna go ahead and talk about storage silos I have some some things that are kind of overflowing we’ll go over here to the sheep farm I’m getting better with my lighter by the way and we’ll take a look at this and this and then that uh-huh this yep lots and lots

Of wool you get the point so some of these colors are just way overflowing and then kind of the same thing is going to happen in the storage building actually so it’s not in here currently but I have a lot of cobblestone it’s down in the mines but

Enough cobblestone to easily fill this chest and probably half of this one too and that’s not a good thing I don’t really like it when things are overflowing in my storage room so today we’re going to build sort of a a run-off storage area for anything that is

Overflowing this storage area will be organized but probably a little less so and to do it to make it all work we are going to use storage silos this is something we haven’t talked about at all in this series quite yet but but basically it’s a tall thing like a

Real-life silo with redstone lamps on it to show you when things are getting fold basically it’s good to definitely be one of those things that I’m gonna be better off just showing you what it is instead of trying to explain it poorly but to build a silo or at least up the

Dimensions we’re building it we’ll need I think five redstone lamps six chests Hopper’s and five comparators well also beating some building blocks as well so say hello to my brand-new shiny blue shell core box pretty cool I got the materials inside of it let’s swing over

To the smeltery grab some of our iron and then go over to where storage city will reside I’ve done some surveying before the episode flying around figuring out where I want to position things and it’s safe to say that I can’t use rockets I meant to say it’s safe to

Say I know exactly where I want storage City to be I think this area over here would be the perfect candidate for a bunch of silos so I think that means I need to chop up quite a few trees down and get this area ready for the actual

Build now good thing we have a forest here because this this build is going to require I think a fair amount of wood I’d like to use some wood in this build so so I guess it’s not all that bad at all and I mean we have this really handy axe

But I definitely have just a little bit of work to do now unfortunately we have used up pretty much all of our dirt stock pile and in the last episode we’re making our sky island which means if we have to terraform we have to terraform

Downward so or we would have to go off somewhere and dig up dirt but I’d rather just terraform downwards so I think do a or a zombie I oh hi sorry I’m breaking into your house I don’t mean to I’ll leave you be but I’m gonna have to get

Rid of that anyways we have to pull this Hill back a little bit because the silos are small but they’re not super tiny I think this should be good though now let’s see let’s say we have our silo made out of spruce wood and we put the

Back right here then we need a circle so we’ll go around like this and then boom magically we have our silo shape so this is what we’ll be working with now we need our materials I brought them over here in this handy-dandy blue shocker box so that is going to get cluttered fast

We need five redstone lamps five comparators sixteen chests I think I said six earlier but I meant six double chests so yep sorry about that so to start this build off grab your redstone lamps and tower straight up on the middle of one of your sides of the

Circle if you’re doing a circle after placing all of your lamps in a straight line place a single double chest right on top of it like this after that jump off of this whole thing and get your hoppers out or ready and some building blocks because we need those now so

Coming out with this top double jumps we need a hopper going or facing backwards like that and then we need another hopper going to the left or the right it doesn’t matter now that hopper that is going to the left of the right should be going into a double chest just like that

Now after placing one double chest you’re going to want to go over to the whole other side and go one row down place a double chest then place another hopper going into it so basically we’re going to go back and forth from side to side so repeat the whole thing again and

By the way I messed up on this already you want your double chest hanging back not not towards the front we’ll be putting something else in the front in just a minute so yeah make sure your double chests are hanging backwards so you have room and also make sure your

Hoppers go into your double chest you don’t want them facing straight down you want them going sideways but all on top of each other all right so there we go we have our chest going down as far as the lights go down now we need to place in our comparators comparators are an

Interesting block or item thing comparators can detect when there is an item inside of a container and output a redstone signal that is what we will be using to turn on our redstone lamps you will want comparators coming out of each and every chest now these comparators should be even

With the chest so just like that now to place these things a little bit easier you should probably fill in your front walls the blocks can be anything other than like redstone blocks those probably would not work very well so place five comparators in coming out of each and

Every chest if you were doing five chests and then that that’s actually going to be it now as soon as you have an item inside of one of your chests the light on the outside will turn on so these lights will detect when we have items inside of a chest

After the bottom chest fills up with items this hopper will fill up right next to it and then the next chest will start filling up and the next light will turn on now this will keep happening until all of the lights are on and then items are getting backed up in the top

Chest and that’ll be fine because the point of this thing is bulk storage we will be putting a bunch of the same item inside of each one of these things aside from one that we’re going to use for wall that one might be a little messy

But hey it’s fine so that’s the silo build now we need to figure out how to make this thing look pretty and I think we could do it with a pattern I think we could use dark oak and spruce and maybe like make a like a checker pattern going

Up the side and then I guess we could just do like dark oak in the middle and just kind of surround it and repeat that over and over again going up and then we need a dome on the top so a dome on the top that could be tricky but I think

It’s the only way to do things I think this should work hopefully I’m using wood instead of something cool like terracotta so we can create a dome domes are very difficult to make in like a small setting like this so we’re gonna have to try our best but hopefully

Hopefully our best will cut it I I hope so I say with absolute pure certainty now by the weight the the top expose chest is going to be our input chest this is the chest that we will access to put things inside of our storage silo you will probably want like a staircase

On top of this just so you can actually use it that is very very important so staircase there then could we do like how would we do this would this be hmm well we should probably start by just going up around this thing once more right like

Probably then I guess we would go solid block solid solid and then one more full block actually no no I think we should start with slabs that should be the way to go and you know what how about this – well I’m up here and just being

Indecisive let’s do the top of the dome in a different color so we’ll do the contrast color which would be dark oak on this one instead of just more spruce I think by switching up the colors that we’re using we might be able to create something that looks a little better and

You know we might as well do this – we need a staircase right above the chest that is dark oak instead of oak because well look at this symmetrical symmetry was that thing that I that I always pay attention to right yeah oh no I don’t do

That well we’re paying attention to it today wrong wrong wrong oh this is tough let’s start with this this time I just built the whole dome and it was in a dome it was weird so we’ll try it again all right moment of truth do we have a

Dome or do we have something that’s goofy no no we have a dome finally yes this is perfect that is what storage city is all about oh yeah okay so storage city building one in we need a doorway though we definitely need an axis thing to these buildings so we can

Actually pull our items out that is the only problem with these storage silos once you put things inside of these chests you’ll probably want like a way into the back to access to the stuff now do we want to do the floor in here hmm maybe with like cobblestone like as a

Strong foundation whew so I’ll come back and get that in there but that is silo one done now I need to I think get one more in like over here I want them offset a little bit and then maybe I guess we could do three four now three

Is a good start so then I’ll put one more like across the road if you will from it and then we’ll just leave room for more silos in the future I do plan on coming back and adding these in as I start to get more materials the plan is

To expand the storage area as I need to when I need to whenever I need to for storage that was really weird and we will also be switching the blocks up on each silo so on this one I think we’ll do maybe like oak and Burch Burch would

Look cool with over and I’m sorry zombie house but you are being renovated I guess no more zombie house here oh that reminds me you know what today’s a special day it’s a very special day now why because of course today is the very first day that we can use jungle wood in

A build we will have to use jungle wood for a storage silo now what goes good with jungle wood well of course being stuck in a berry bush and all honesty I am Not sure I don’t think acacia wood would go too well with a jungle but it’s

The only other wood type I haven’t used maybe we’ll just do oh we could just do an Oakland yeah so moment of truth will we get enough saplings from this tree right here we better if we don’t I need a refund though the whole game like all

Of Minecraft is what I mean like if I don’t get the right yeah uh-huh yeah I’m gonna get a refund yep seven years later I’ll give it a shot so here are the first three silo positions we have the one that we already built we have the jungle one

That will be accented with oak and then finally we have the oak one that will be accented with birch wood now it’s time to just go ahead and I think get pretty much all of these builds in you saw me build one of these things well just

Imagine it again and again and then we have silo city storage city I both work I can already tell you I’m going to mix that up a lot and you know what let’s let’s do a glowstone on the top of each one of these moment of truth the do we have how many

Saplings how one one no that’s a joke it’s a joke right there there’s got to be more than one sapling – okay okay it’s dropping them off all right yeah I was gonna say if we got one sapling from a giant jungle tree like really oh boy

Yeah I don’t know what I would have done probably nothing okay so now we need the guts of all of these silos it should be pretty easy to do though wandering traitor in the silo get out of here man what are you doing your prices an emerald for one gunpowder who do you

Think I am can you guys get out of here not now okay so our four silos should be entirely functional now that means we need to go ahead and decorate in this area figure out a path idea and then close them up like make doors and you

Know basic things like that now for a road in here I think I’d like to go with some light gray concrete powder actually and do something a little more I guess organized in a way I’d like to have more of a clean path cutting through here maybe like a too wide

Just simple road that goes right through the middle and then I don’t know if we really needed paths over to the silo so we just have like a road right I mean that would work mmm how do we want to do this maybe we could do one wide paths

And we’ll have these small paths line up with wherever the lights go now for any kind of spots where we would need a step up I think I’ll do smooth stone slabs that’ll be the way to do things now the road out here I I haven’t a clue

Honestly I’m thinking our standard City Road so let’s just do that for now and then eventually I will probably change it I just I really don’t know and I don’t think I’m going to connect it to anything either I’ll just put like a road in here so we haven’t I just don’t

Know what I really want to do with this section quite yet just when I thought I lost it all I thought the lottery was gone game over and game I did not I have eight jungle saplings oh yeah that is the numbers we need that’s amazing I’m happy we need to

Continue eating those kinds of numbers so we can repopulate the amount of jungle trees that we have in our world which is at least over here really really low so I’ve been doing quite a bit of terraforming work over on our build zone today I’m going to empty out

My inventory fill it back up with wool and then we’ll march over to storage city and I will show you what we have and to make things clear we will still be using this storage building the building that we’re in right now is still our primary storage place all the

Storage city is for is like access thing if I manage to fill up or nearly fill up a chest over in this building then we’ll move a bunch of the access stuff over to storage city and then continue using this place over here because this area over here is still way more convenient

Than storage city so let’s go ahead and and that over there now you can kind of see it through the trees but now you should be able to see it because we’re right in front of it so I decided to make a bit of a berry garden right here

In front of the haunted church because why not maybe ghosts need berries too then we have welcome to storage city and a wall and then inside of storage city the atmosphere changes this is an old broken-down zone and this is a clean pretty beautiful good zone and this is

Also where I’m coming to drop off a bunch of this wool now unfortunately if you’re using these storage silos with multiple items they can clog up the hoppers can get all clogged and then it’s not gonna work as well I used some jack-o’-lanterns as some hidden lighting

Sources in here as well just little pumpkin patches I thought that would be kind of cool whoops see that happens a lot because I have my key vines change I have a button on my mouse that does the perspective but yeah so like I was saying if we have different types of

Items in a silo it could clog up faster and that is why I’ll probably be considering making a nexus wool storage area as well because this would be better for like dirt and wood and then like cobblestone you know things like that but this is storage city for now we

Have lots of room to expand it over here we’ll kind of keep that in mind in the future when we build buildings and then eventually we’ll link this path up to something I just don’t know really how I’ll want to do that yet I don’t know if

I want to go up the mountain or like go and change the graveyard I just I don’t really know yet another thing storage city might be great for is bamboo we are like overfilling on bamboo over here at least I have to move to the storage

Building but it is going to fill up fast so I think the sword City will be very very helpful but today’s comment of the day today’s comment is from aaron h build yourself an actual house all in caps and i’ve got to say i don’t know what that means i just don’t speak

English so is there any other way you could say that to me i’d like to send a special shout-out to AZN mike k i is that asian is that what that means anyways thank you for the support and thank you everybody else for watching remember that if you want early access
