Auto Crafting in Minecraft 1.21 Snapshot 

Just a note on this video; The obvious uses for this block are outputs from farms and mass 'simple' crafting (things like iron blocks etc.) I wanted to get creative and get a feel for how it works. Will be releasing some videos soon on more functional pipelines! EDIT: Hopper update order messes with this design when re-logging mid process. I've fixed it using some extra circuitry, but it definitely adds some extra confusion for people making these themselves.

Now we've gotta wait for mumbo to autocraft autocrafters

This also means there will be automatic wood planks maker out of bamboo

Dispensers were the first thing I was excited to use auto crafters for but not actually by crafting bows. I’ve always wanted the excess bows from a skeleton farm to have a useful output. It’ll be super nice to have all of your blocks compressed in storage (iron blocks, slime blocks, redstone blocks) not to mention all the stuff you’ll be able to do with furnace arrays

Seeing Mumbo trying to craft a ''wob'' made my day.

When I saw the Crafter was being added I got that little excited feeling that something cool was coming. Then I realized that Mumbo would be showing me how “it’s really quite simple,” and I got even more excited!

I don’t think people realize how impactful this could be. Theoretically you could have a sorting system that automatically fills up every craftable item. For example you can make a tree farm, set up a bunch of auto crafters, then you could fill your sorting system with all types of wood products. And that’s only the wood. You can do all the stone bricks, etc

I can't wait for someone to make a machine that allows you to press one button and get any item in the game

Excited for the new block. Would be nice if the devs add a function to allow the player to lock in a slot that has an item in it to simplify the restone and potentially reduce lag. That way the crafter remembers an item to be added into the slot and when it's emptied of that item it shows a faded item in that slot until it's refilled.

These things just skyrocketed the number of farmable resources. Before we were limited to farming raw ingredients which we had to craft things with ourselves... Now we can automate everything that you can craft with those raw resources as well. It'd be really fun to try and make a factory that produces all manner of building blocks, or redstone components, or weapons and armor, all by itself!

This also seems like it'll be amazing for automating farms, so that you can compact mass amounts of wheat into blocks before being sent into storage, or automatically making stacks on stacks of bread. Mojang really just said "Factorio moment" and it's great.

I am so glad to see the Mumbo journey of these items as mumbo is doing all the things I didn't know I wanted to test (moving it, observer output) but absolutely wanted to know

Seeing Mumbo get all giddy and excited over the new stuff, and getting even more giddy and excited when he starts understanding how it works really does make me so incredibly happy. It's like watching a kid open their favorite gifts on Christmas or something.

Love the evil laugh at 8:34 LMAO Mumbo already envisioning the most complicated autocrafting build known to man inside his head

If you make a bamboo farm, you can auto craft them into sticks. You can hook that up to a cobblestone farm and a skeleton spawner farm and a witch farm to culminate into... *a Dispenser farm*

Hypothetically, if: - You had a mob farm - A raid farm - A wood farm - A cobblestone farm With the wood being converted into sticks, and only keeping the restone from the witches in the raid, and only keeping the string from the mob farm. You could do this process completely automatically, sure, it wouldn't be as fast as crafting, but it is more or less afkable.

I imagine the most common use for auto-crafters will be for compacting resources. Dried kelp to kelp blocks etc etc. Edit* Please keep replying with ideas, I'm designing a new industrial district and I need as many ideas as I can get for making it as efficient as possible.

Could be an interesting thing for the Hermitcraft stores. Instead of the "take item, add diamond(s)" thing they usually do, the shop chests could be built to dump the diamonds after the purchase and then replenish themselves automatically. Think of a redstone store with all the raw ingredients stashed in the back ... if someone buys a stack of comparators, it uses the dust, sticks, stone and nether quartz to remake the 64 just sold.

I also love that you can send an item directly from the autocrafter into another adjacent autocrafter if the output from the first one is facing into the facing the second one

5:03 - My man casually crafting a Wob.

The way Mumbo first tried to make a bow has a name: a wob, or a backwards bow

Honestly I find the best use for the Crafter to be in Iron, Gold, Emerald, and Copper farms. No more do you need to manually craft single resources into blocks for storage yourself. You can potentially afk at your farm 9 to 81 times longer now before an overflow.

I love that I have followed Mumbo for something like 8 years and so I think and ask questions nearly exactly the same as him. Literally answered everything I was wondering ab

7:27 when you made something dangerous that works that your science teacher didn’t account for

The kinda machines that etho, doc and other redstone gurus are going to be able to make is crazy. This block has changed the redstone game completely and i cant wait to see what mumbo and others do

For crafting at most maybe a single chest's worth of bows or so into dispensers, yeah, this might be overkill, but on the industrial scale that people like Doc, Tango, and Mumbo use components, this will be an absolutely essential factory to build. Crafting more dispensers by hand than you have inventory slots for bows is one of the most painful things in Minecraft.

Mumbo on Hermitcraft with auto-crafting automation sounds like how Mumbo Jumbezos happens… Or how we get a Hermitcraft Pinky and The Brain scenario with Mumbo and Grian-

This sounds like a very useful item for Survival builders, as long as it's only available as an end game item. I'd love to see what can be done if you hooked this up to various automatic item farms.

I want to see an automatic crafter crafter! You made it halfway there already!

Seeing Mumbo play around with new restone items and mechanics just brings me the purest form of joy. It makes me want to play around with redstone, and also makes me feel like im watching a kid in a candy store XD

Could you use this to make a code lock for a red stone door?

I've simplified the Redstone logic for auto-crafting dispensers. Build a clock that counts the number of cycles using 3 T flip flops in binary. This will count to from 0 to 7. Send a signal to craft the item in the crafter. Place an OR gate that blocks the signal to craft if any value is held by these T flip flops, which re-routes the signal to adding a cobblestone to the crafter instead. Build an AND gate for if the 1st AND the 3rd T flip flops are active: 101 or 111 aka 5 or 7 in binary. This AND gate blocks the signal to add a cobblestone and re-routes the signal to adding a bow. An additional AND gate blocks the signal to the bow if the 2nd T flip flop is active, and re-routes to adding a redstone dust. BOTH the Redstone and the Bow also forward the signal to the cobble directly after: 001: Add cobble to the crafter 010: Add cobble to the crafter 011: Add cobble to the crafter 100: Add cobble to the crafter 101: Add a bow and cobble to the crafter 110: Add cobble to the crafter 111: Add redstone and cobble to the crafter 000: craft the dispenser

I specifically waited for mumbo to upload before watching any other crafter videos!

Imagine if you could lock items inside so they wont be crafted, that would mean we wouldnt have to worry about running out

I think if you added in a simple item sorter, it would make the whole process better, especially if you send the sorted items into a sequencer using droppers so they can be pulsed in the needed order easily. For the bows, I'd use the same method but send them to a different crafter. You won't need chests storing items. This would work awesome for farms where you are looking for an end product and you don't need the resources to make it.

I laughed so hard when phoenixsc called it the 'Mumbo Block'

I am extremely excited for more “Mumbo learning a new vanilla minecraft red stone component”video. I watched every honey block invention when they were being implemented and loved every video. Infinitely entertaining to see how these could be used.

I have a neat idea for 4:40. On my survival world I have a skeleton farm and get to many bows than I know what to do with, so what if you hooked up system to bring bows from a skeleton farm and Redstone and cobblestone from the mines to go to an auto-crafter and make the dispensers so you won't need to auto-craft bows aswell Edit: you can use damaged bows to craft dispensers, comments, and you can combine bows in your crafting table if both are damaged

8:20 sounds like mr. Crabs playing the flying Dutchman board game lmao

0:01 Welcome to Timed!

I cannot wait to see what Mumbo and Etho come up with.

pumpkin pies can now be fully automated

seeing mumbo so exited that he made functioning redstone machine is like seeing stephen hawkings happy bc he solved 2 + 2

The childlike joy that comes from mumbo once he got his system working is second only to a computer science student.

I could see someone connecting one of these to various farms to help keep them supplied, like a wood/stick farm, a spider/string farm for the bows, or even a skeleton farm, a cobblestone farm, and the redstone would have to be added in manually by the player, or even use one of the raid/witch farms to get redstone. And other such farms for other craftable items. Maybe you could even figure out a keypad system to tell the system how many items you want crafted at a time.

Most people: "Yay now we can store gold and iron blocks at our farms!" Mumbo: "DISPENSERS"

ALL the cobblestone related blocks, AUTOMATED like some sort of challenge. Automatic cobble generator paired into automatic furnace array into automatic crafters to make all of the blocks that can be made from cobblestone and they go to fill up a user interactable storage system for them all that shuts off when it's filled enough for a player to use. Bonus points if it only fills up one or two chunks so it is easier to chunk load with a nether chunk loader.

The auto-dispenser crafter is amazing! Well done. Loved the video!!!

Mumbo is going to do something really complicated with it, I'm calling it.

The day Mumbo finds Factorio will be the best day

Hearing the excitement in your voice when it works was great. It made me happy as well.

I look forward to more!! Nothing makes the video better than an excited Mumbo!

Ever since I hard that the auto crafter was coming, I was waiting for the Mumbo video. Now it's here.

A few years ago, I was wishing for this when I made an automatic item sorting system, so I could throw ingots into a chest and have them automatically turn into blocks in the underground storage.

I look forward to many more of this type of video!

2:31 "So were gonna start real simple..."

Alright, Time to see mumbo make a walking autocrafter house.

This feels like oldschool Mumbo - trying out brand new redstone for the first time, it's exciting!!!

Also as a decoration these are really fun! Make a sweet looking control panel with glowing lights

YOU SOUND SO DIFFERENT BRO ITS BEEN SO LONG (you were part of my childhood)

It may be easier to just craft dispensers, but having a dispenser farm is a HUGE flex lol

Welcome to the Industrial Era Mumbo

Best thing that has happened to the red stone community ever since the piston

Would be interesting if the comparator output of enabling/disabling crafting sections could be used like a 3x3 button pannel for things like perhaps a combination lock.

I remember hearing them talk about it being a cool concept before but never thought the day would come where it would actually be added into vanilla minecraft aaa

Something that seems like it would help is if you could assign an item to a slot in the crafter. But I'm not a redstone person so that might make it more complicated lol. so excited to see what comes from the crafter!

Minecraft in 2024 makes me just as hyped as I was when playing it as a kid back in 2011!

Finally! A vanilla minecraft playthrough that won't have me thinking "man I really wish I was playing factorio right now"!

It took me all day, but I was able to make a automatic bookshelf crafter. Movable tile entity’s on bedrock are really useful for the crafter.

I'm sure 100 people have thought of this by now, but man it would be cool if all the bows from a skeleton farm automatically got turned into dispensers!!!

Thank you for showing me! I didn’t know if it was going to work. this is the first time I’ve ever used it.❤❤❤❤

This is going to do all the work my younger brother used to do on my old community server 😊

I love that dispensers were everyone's first thought when thinking about autocrafting

Idea! Make a dropper and hopper system that dispenses an amount of items in a sequence. This should cut your nine(+2 for bows) chests down to nine three droppers, with one connected to the output of a bow crafter. Timing the items would be 4 cobble, one bow, two cobble, a redstone dust, and then either 1 last cobble, or five cobble to prepare the next recipe, picking up on the bow.

When you cobble together a redstone contraption and it works entirely as intended, it can be surprisingly satisfying.

This is so useful. Having a way to not only cut down on crafting but to also have certain items on the ready is amazing. Not to mention modgrinders will be even more efficient.

Mumbo is going to do something quite simple with this im calling it

I'm already prepared for mass produced shulker zip files for buildings, can't wait to see the incredible inventions people make!

I really can’t imagine a situation where this is worth doing even. Even with the extreme case of making an insane amount of dispensers for some crazy project, the quality of life in Minecraft’s crafting system is so good with double clicking, drag clicking, shift clicking, etc. anyone with moderately quick fingers can blast out tons of bows and dispensers faster than it would take to watch the RU-vid video on how to create the Redstone contraption

I knew you were right all along. You DID make a video like 2 or 3 years ago titled "What if Minecraft had Auto Crafting?". I knew it! I was typing in the Minecraft Live livestream chat "MUMBO WAS RIGHT ALL ALONG" when they announced the crafter. Great job on predicting the future.

I feel like the "just leave the items in the crafter so the sequence is right" thing can still work. Just have a chest full of bows with hoppers that flow into the crafter, and a detector circuit that sees when the bow chest is empty, and switches the whole thing off. You'd also need a clock that is timed to exactly how long it takes to craft a just shy of a stack of dispensers. When about 60 or so have been crafted, the clock tells the machine to switch from flowing bows into the crafter and starts flowing the other components in. Then when that's done, it switches back to bows. EDIT: Or you could just have two completely separate circuits that are timed at opposite intervals so you insert exactly 1 bow, then pause for some number of ticks, insert the other components (which are already in place so sequence doesn't matter), craft the dispenser, and repeat.

After watching this it seems the auto crafter has 2 great uses, which are crafting recipes with non stackable parts i.e (cake, dropper). As well as increased storage for items like (wheat, bone meal, clay, bamboo, ect) which can be turned into a 9 item blocks.

Hook it up to a gunpowder and sugarcane farm for fireworks Hook it up to a gunpowder and sand storage for TNT farming.

Mumbo: Redstone engineering genius, creates masterpieces, and runs successful YT channel. Also Mumbo: *_Can't craft a bow_*

the wholesomeness of mumbo figuring out that his Redstone actually worked was awesome

the video every single person called mumbo was surely making after the minecraft live announcement

Been waiting for you to make a video on this block

I want them to make it so you can use the recipe book, or a similar system, to make it so the crafter only allows certain items in certain slots. That way you don't need to worry about the order that the items fill up.

8:39 I think a lot of redstoners would rather build this, throw in the items, AFK for a bit next to it, and never worry about crafting dispensers again. So I think it's a success. Probably someone will build a simpler or faster one, but still, a success!

Now on hermitcraft all Redstoner should just get together and make a huge automatic crafter station for all the items the server will ever need...it will be fun to see what everyone can do together

When i saw this video in my recommended i thought you were playing with mods and was suprised to learn that it is coming in the next update

this opens up so much possibility, say you have an auto tree farm, then you have a system that crafts everything that can be crafted using wood, so you have infinite planks, slabs, sticks, button, pressure plate, fences, fence gates, chests, automatically deposited into your storage system, that's cool then you can also burn wood for charcoal, automating torches then if you have an iron farm, you can automate armors, tools, lanterns, iron bars, chains, and even more this feels like modded minecraft

If you want easy dispensers, the best way is to just manually put in stacks for everything but the bow, put a hopper and chest full of bows (or manually set up the stacks for the bows in a second crafter) into that. Then, a simply clock to pulse the crafter will kick out dispensers until you have a stack of them. So, two crafters, placing 15 stacks of items (6 for the bows, 8 for the dispensers), and a clock that pulses the bow crafter then the dispenser crafter would work for a stack of dispensers at a time. Four repeaters and some dust for the looping clock, the first crafter making bows spitting them directly into the second crafter for the dispenser, and a container at the end for the output seems like the cheapest and smallest way that I can think of without trying it out.

As soon as I saw the auto-crafter, I was waiting to see what Mumbo would come out with.

This games is just factorio now. Oh, Mumbo Jumbo should definitely play factorio.

for the compacting side of things one thing i might reccomend is a lecturn with a book turned to page (either 8 or 9 i forget which), with a comparator going into the comparator connected to the crafter which is set to subtract mode so that you only get an output when its full gaurenteed and it shrinks the detection circuit from however big it was to a 2x3 if your using that to auto power the crafter as well, the only downside to the system is it cant craft when theres more than one set of all the items (like for example if you were crafting bamboo blocks and had 2 bamboo in each slot) itll only power once and not power off although im sure theres a fix to that, granted i couldnt get a great look at the system you had lined up for auto detecting the fullness of the crafter so forgive me if what im saying is pointless, just kinda hard to see it through all the other bits lol and i figured id try and be helpful if what im saying even is helpful

I'm honestly amazed that Mumbo was able to work around the complex crafting recipe issue. But the fact that he had to go through such a long and costly process just means that this issue is very likely beyond the average player to solve, limiting the Crafter's application. I think that the Crafter needs a "lock-in" feature in the UI. It could be as easy as right clicking an item so it never goes below 1. This means you could safely pump out whatever you want so long as you kept up the supplies of items.

This is the video I've been waiting for. Gotta love Mumbo with new redstone.

As a person that knows nothing about Redstone and stuff like that I was confused the entire time but enjoyed it

the notes that you added really helped me follow along with your thought process. i think you should do them more often. kinda like subtitles for your brain
