Well, this thread is obvious, just post pictures of your creations and such. I've not screen shotted most of my stuff and they are deleted, I'll see if I get around rebuilding them Razz

I can always load the world and take more screenshots, but... that world scares me.

That project was made back in October.

Was working on this project last night; I started a new world and wanted to figure out the best way to keep track of where I've been. Welcome to the Towered Empire, or at least its humble beginnings:

My Home in Two Photos; one from the perspective of the glass wall, one from where I just put a new chest:

My first Tower in game; I took a preliminary shot before I added the roof, the torches, and the garden-waterfall combo, but I decided to give you all the finished product both during the day and at night when the torches shine bright. It's a bit far away, but each side has a pair of windows (2 of the 4 sides), the roof is tiered up until the top, which has 3 2x2 blocks raised up. There is a 'garden' of sorts in which I am growing Cacti and Sugar Cane. As well, I've begun construction of a road that will eventually lead me to a second tower which I have yet to build:

The tower is above my safe-house actually, and if you enter said safe-house you will find stairs that will lead to the top of the tower. I have 2 entrances to the tower; one inside my abode and one above on the hillside. I'm beginning to move out from this fortified safe-zone. The hole I found that my home is in was actually a pre-made cave that I just happened to really like, so I expanded it.

^ Me experimenting with Farming. Trying to maximize size vs. water vs. fertilizer, etc.

I want something that looks like a rolling wheat field, without being stupid looking. More screenshots later

Higura, have you tried irrigation channels?

Glowstone enclosures will accelerate the rate of return, too.

Higura Sun Apr 17, 2011 1:08 pm

There's no need for irrigation channels when a single block of water alone, will water for up to 4 squares. Which is why each pool of water is 8 plots of tilled land apart from each other, to maximize the size vs water need. And no, I haven't experimented with glowstone yet. I haven't gotten to the nether in my current world.

**Kenelm** Sun Apr 17, 2011 3:46 pm

You could give yourself the glowstone. (Reaching and collecting glowstone from the Nether has a 9:1 return.)

Higura Sun Apr 17, 2011 5:49 pm

Yeah, I know. Razz

I don't like cheating though. So it'll have to wait.

You don't need diamond to make a portal, if you are careful you can make one just using ten buckets of lava, water, and dirt.

**Kenelm** Sun Apr 17, 2011 8:49 pm

Yes. Using a mold is an option.

Items needed:
Ten lava springs
One water spring
Two buckets minimum
Material that won't burn.
Pickaxe (if using stone)
Axe (if using wooden half blocks)

Dimensions after mold: 5,5,1 (x/z,y,x/z)
Mold dimensions: 6,5,3 + climbing room
