This is my little house in the pre-release of Minecraft 1.8. It’s recommended to start a new world because terrain generation is done with new algorithms. You can’t really tell from this image, but lighting has also gone a complete overhaul- it looks very good now. You can also see vine type things hanging from […]
This is a mine cart station idea that I had. It’s located in my town and should transport the player across a lake. The idea is for one cart to be waiting at each end of the tracks. You can get into one side and push the button to set yourself off and when you […]
This is a test of sequential piston action. If you want two sticky pistons on top of each other to work properly you need to have the top one retract before the bottom one or else it will not be pulled down. This mechanism starts or stops a flow of water. In truth the system […]
The tower is as tall as it can be. It reaches the very top of the world where it limits you from building any higher. It’s base integrates with a fortress type structure which started out as a test for a hidden door with pistons. Can you see the hidden door? No, because it’s hidden […]
In the distance we can see my giant tower that protrudes out of that fortress type building at it’s base. The single line of blocks at the top is to test the vertical building limit; at completion the tower will reach that height. On the left you can see a short pyramid with trees on […]

The sun rises behind my home tower. It has a sturdy base made of cobblestone and the upper levels made of planks have sky bridges that branch out to other floating platforms. In the bottom left corner you can see a little piece of powered mine cart track which actually isn’t much longer than what […]
This is a view from my glass platform over my valley where you can see a couple mine cart build tests. That particular test is to send or call for a mine cart from either side of the track. There are also another 2 mine cart tracks on the right side leading off into the […]
