create:portable_storage_interfaceFlow¶
- Windmill → Mechanical Bearing arm → Deployers · saplings + bone meal → Mechanical Saws → Portable Storage Interface (also Mechanical Bearing arm → Mechanical Saws)
How to build¶
- Lay a ring of dirt (radius 4–6) around the spot for the bearing. Leave 7+ blocks of air above for the trees. —
minecraft:dirt - A Mechanical Bearing in the centre facing up, with an arm of Radial Chassis glued together that reaches over the dirt ring. —
create:mechanical_bearing,create:radial_chassis,create:super_glue - Deployers facing down along the arm hold saplings and plant them as they sweep. A second row holding Bone Meal speeds the growth. —
create:deployer,minecraft:oak_sapling - Mechanical Saws on the arm, facing the direction of rotation at trunk height. A saw on a contraption fells the whole tree. —
create:mechanical_saw - A chest on the arm: saw drops go straight into it, and deployers refill saplings from it. —
minecraft:chest - A Portable Storage Interface on the arm plus a fixed one at the dock: each pass, logs and apples go to the drawers and saplings come back. —
create:portable_storage_interface,functionalstorage:oak_1 - Run the bearing slowly (2–8 RPM) from the windmill line so the deployers have time to plant. —
create:windmill_bearing
Tips¶
- Ring of dirt around the bearing; saws and deployers on the rotating arm.
- Saw drops go straight into storage mounted on the contraption.
- Feed leftover saplings to an Advanced Composter → bone meal → deployers.
- Same build with jungle saplings = rubber trees.
