Day 496: power and automation

Sometimes you need a project that’s just for, y’know, goofing around. This is the ongoing saga of my Minecraft character. For lack of a better title, we’re going with “One Among the Dead”. 

Day 496:

So now I’m trying to figure out how I can do it without whacking things with a hammer because, well, that’s more work than I want to do having spent all day with a pickaxe to begin with.

I haven’t tried applying fire to the red rock yet but I might experiment…
