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 […]
Located directly under the town square, the Doom Hole is the result of some TNT related fun. It drops down quite a long ways, nearly down to the bedrock. From one of the buildings at the town square you can access the Doom Hole. Partially carving and partially building I’ve made most parts of the […]
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 […]
The town square is built on a piece of land where, to put it lightly, I’ve done some TNT demonstrations. The doom hole is covered up now, but the building on the right is home to the entrance to the doom hole. Visitors enter at their own risk! In the background you can see the […]
This is a view of the town square in which you can see both the lighthouse and the Temple of the Sun. In the center is a water fountain surrounded by some market stalls and around them some houses. Just behind the blue market stall is a commercial venue; I haven’t decided what it is […]
This area of my town-soon-to-be-city is like a little square. You can see the market stalls with the blue and pink cloth roofs and a fountain in the center. Houses and other buildings surround the square. You can see the lighthouse off to the right. One thing you can’t see in this image is that […]
This is the interior main hall of the Temple of the Sun. Seating has been put in, via the trusty method of steps with blank signs on the sides (in this case, since there’s only a single tile in between I couldn’t put armrests in the center). A red carpet connects the water basin at […]
These are wooden structures built on the side of a cliff face high off the ground. This view is from a flying position. On the right you can see the incoming mine cart tracks, fashioned into a floating cart station. Inside the first wooden building you can see some glass panels holding back water, I […]
This area is a tiny valley surrounded by steep cliff sides and mountains all around. What makes this spot attractive is the spout of water coming out of the side of the rock. Coupled with the snow layer this waterfall scene is part of what makes people fall in love with Minecraft. Remember that all […]
