[Darknova131]

I made a 7*7 and made it to the hight limit all glass XP

[xDeadlyM40A3x]

awesome ty :D

[joelcoil]

sick son!

[JaredHasNoBrain]

i tried a 14x14 instead of 7x7... the result.. and epic fail haha!

[anon4everr]

@JaredHasNoBrain It has to be an odd number

[thegozer100]

did u rely need the glass WALLS?

[lordredeagle]

@thegozer100 they're so we can see inside ;)

[thegozer100]

@lordredeagle i dont mean they must be made of glass, i mean can u remove them

[Mokomi1]

@thegozer100 When you first place the water/lava you need something to block off flow sideways so it stays on the spiral path. Water/lava take the shortest possible distance to the next dropoff in height. After the water/lava flows all the way down you can remove the wall, but if u ever cause it to update the flow, like from picking up the water and putting it back down, or placing a block in it's path somewhere, the flow will update and not spiral down.

[somarate]

how do u block off the lava and water so it dosent flow out of the tower

[Mokomi1]

@somarate Before you put the lava/water source down you should dig a 1 block hole at the bottom step. If the water flows into it it will contain it and not overflow.

[somarate]

@Mokomi1

ok thanks

[gulbirk]

it looks strang ein HD

[Jademasker08]

Wait, is the dirt or w/e that is supposed to be glass in the actual thing?

[Wilks228]

that texture pack is sexy

[Wilks228]

@Wilks228 also, why did you not just build the tower 1*1 block smaller? that wy surely you could have made it so that the lava and water would have touched the edges.

[Mokomi1]

@Wilks228 Well, that would work to make the tower have a 5x5 base instead of 7x7 base. Though, you will lose the ability to walk up the stairs inside the tower. At one point my tower only had 1 spiral of stairs going down with water (so the roof was higher) and i used it as a river and rode down on a boat lol. Cutting down on the size will save alot of material and is a good suggestion .

[janwarrock]

What the, omg strange glass strange water and strange blocks:S, how?

[Mokomi1]

@janwarrock A texture pack that changes the default skin. If you want to try it the source is in the video description.

[janwarrock]

@Mokomi1 Ok thanks, but its so hard to build it i tryed it to but i run out of stone and glass, and i do it on a big mountain, but i want to make the mountain bigger, so with that work do i fall! And than do i lose me stuff hehe, so i run fast out of building things. :P

[Mokomi1]

@janwarrock if you hold down shift you can't fall - that little trick makes building stuff high up much easier

[Mixedlumps]

Beacon for house -> 20% done now. Thanks man!

[Mokomi1]

@Mixedlumps Nice, and yw.

Let me guess, you ran out of glass? Happened to me a lot while building my 4 towers.

[Mixedlumps]

@Mokomi1 Yep, but I live on a sandy island..

Except I don't want to ruin the aesthetic features of beaches. And it's running out quick, I still need glass for my house. And my wood is running low... :P

Oh well, i gotta find a way around that.

[Mokomi1]

@Mixedlumps When I was constructing buildings that needed glass, coal was my limiting reagent despite how much I mined. If you look at my video touring my base you'll see that I was a little too ambitious with the size of it. Between the towers and the floating glass contained river and future projects that weren't included in the video, I had to melt ALOT of sand and cobblestone lol.

If you have excess iron you can build a track going along the beaches of a nearby continent and use carts:)

thanks

[Mokomi1]

@dohp111 np :)
