The Most Powerful Machine in Create Mod - Ultimate Guide to Contraptions 

That's a great point! It seems that it wasn't the chest being obstructed tho, just bad timing with the storage interface lol!

@@dejojotheawsome ahh that’s weird

two saplings did get placed from the obstructed chest, but got destroyed when the contraption stoped

@@hallvardvesetrud1983 yeah, there is nothing wrong with the tree farm

BARREL SUPERIORITY GANG (They're also slightly cheaper)

OMG WOW! IT'S SO BASIC. JUST GEOMETRY! Why did I never think of it like that!? It seems so obvious now that you point that out. Great tip!

Never thought about it, great idea! And it will scale linearly based on the ratios of radii (plural of radius) - assume that R, r are radii and R > r, then: path of the saw = diameterof the circle, small one is 2*pi*r, big one is 2*pi*r, so the ratios between them is R/r e.g you start with a radius of 2, increase it to 4 - that's x2 times the blocks. 2 to 10 - that's x5 the blocks.

@@galgrunfeld9954 2 to 10 is 5x the length, but I'm pretty sure it covers more than 5x the area?

maybe I'm just being stupid though idk

It's the same concept as the math problem where getting a large pizza gives you more area of pizza than 2 medium pizzas. This doesn't work with tree farms because the trees will grow faster than the radial tree farm can cut them down but there is no time component of harvesters which means you can easily make very very large radial farms and the speed/efficiency only goes up with the larger your farm gets

ftbchunks (which is most popular chunk protection in modpacks) has "allow fake players" option, turn it on and delpoyers can work fjne

The thing about the chest in the first place wasnt it not working. He just stopped it on top of the saplings it placed. Those blocks werent blocking the chest on top.

the only issue is that every placed block probably consumes durability

@@lory742G Yes, it will consume durability per block, but glue lasts long enough that you can get like 5-10 small-to-medium contraptions in before it breaks.

@@DontBother_YT ah I see. Anyway, the materials for super glue can be easily farmed with the mod so it's not something to worry much about

I like to put the drills and rope pulley on a gantry to make big Quarries. I just hook the gantry up to a sequenced gearshift so I can control how far out it goes and use stickers to attach and detach the pulley and platform. Works great.

They're a great option! I've just never liked how slow they are

@@dejojotheawsome Then add more wool/sails?

@@dejojotheawsome It's a tree farm, it doesn't really matter how fast it turns. I used to do them with encased fan over campfire.

@@Johannes_Kuhn I don't like hunting sheep haha I prefer just a water wheel is all! Windmill bearing are super super good for farms this is just a personal preference thing

​@@dejojotheawsomeor you could Shear the sheep with Shears. Does anyone here actually play minecraft?

Genius approach, You can place the rails *and* the block the rails sit on if there isn't any. Good thinking!

I made it work by having multiple outputs for the different “crops” so for oak trees like I did, one for logs, one for sticks, and one for apples. 3 in 1 farm to me🤷‍♂️ and I plan to set up auto crafting the wood into more sticks to it’s more equal of a farm rate(I’m like that)

ah so that was just bad timing then, the farm does produce more than enough saplings to restock itself

​@dejojotheawsome

it helps to manuall stock up the deployers with a full stack of saplings when you start the contraption the first time. then each deployer has to top up only a few saplings from time to time instead of waiting for a bunch of them. what i also like to do, have the "arm" of the contraption with the deployers going the opposite direction as the "arm" with the saws. not sure if that helps for reliability of the whole thing but it might.

..what? Since when did the storage interface had any internal storage? It's an interface. It only _represents_ storage. Second, the saplings don't get taken out before they can be placed, because the contraption makes a full circle *after* chopping the tree. The deployers had enough time to work. In fact, they've both placed a sapling. Notice that the 2 standalone saplings weren't there when the contraption was connected.

Give it a try if you never play it, you won't regret it.

It's not as hard as it is tedious in the early game, I'd recommend just playing a Create only pack just to get a feel for it. The most difficult thing to do early game is Andesite Alloy production. You're gonna need a lot of it. Once you get to brass though, smooth sailing from there.

Oh whoops i did forget to say that! Great tip!

They seem to work perfectly for sculk farming with my testing so far, they just turn it directly into xp.

@@Laff700 thats because sculk gives xp when broken without silk touch. It's not collecting the blocks, but breaking them, so xp is given regardless

@@holidaytheraptor6567 I think I should see how they affect infested stone too.

Hey the channel has caught fire recently so we'll see!

Thank you so much that means a lot! Super glad you enjoyed :D

I'm so glad I could help!

Truuuue I gotta learn more about those things they're so cool

Yes they can set the tick rate to push, pull at a regular rate or a double speed rate as well

@@wwygylfgaming6612 that's amazing

Thank you for clarifying!

I do this for basically every early game, circular farm. Why use a mechanical bearing leeching off of existing power when you can make a 'X' sail windmill that allows each farm to independently run at the speed I want.

I didn't even know that existed thank you!

@@dejojotheawsome i never really understood how redstone toggle latches work, even with pondering, would like to see a tutorial on that tho

The issue is a gantry contraption will solidify on any block collision. Thus only the mining/saw face can touch a block. Or the entire thing breaks.

You can as long as the contraption is unobstructed!

I'll need to do some testing on creative later today 👀

@Webo250 tried to do a tree farm at one point with gantry. It works but note. THE RETURN TRIP MATTERS TOO. You have to have saws double sided. Posts out of the leaf line if it's hanging or sticking up. And storage needs to be out of the way. Suggest doing a "wrap" design. Saws over. Deployers under the dirt (stationary or moving in lines with the carriage) storage with the Deployers. Yes it ends up underground mostly. But it's kinda just like a squeegee. Also. Make sure you have room to park the thing. It will solidify and constantly break saplings if you don't give a "garage" on each side of the farm. I just prefer rotary farms because I don't have to think as much though now you've got me wanting to do a gantry farm for the challenge. Most of my power is underground anyway

It does do that! That's why there are cobble placing deployers

@@dejojotheawsome oh my apologies I didn't notice

Also you don't need to put the harvesting on both sides, only one side is needed for it to harvest.

Oh my gosh thank you so much! I am so happy you enjoyed the video so much! :D
