I built a DOCKYARD CRANE in Minecraft Create Mod!

I built a DOCKYARD CRANE in Minecraft Create Mod!

I’ve just reached 3,000 days in my perfect world and in that time we’ve built a starter Village a logging Camp a mining town buttload of trains and more recently the start of a distribution center and dockyard complete with boats and trucks to move goods between buildings and due to the Monstrous

Amount of work we did last episodes I think today we’re going to have a nice relaxing time at making these docks look nice connecting this all up nicer maybe even build a crane and a bunch of delivery vehicles for the future who knows but I know the first thing I want

To do is sort out this road oh and you may know is this vehicle’s coming down here and this is actually our Anders side van so I don’t have a kelp delivery van built just yet so this one’s actually just got an extended Journey but you can see he comes down here

Reverses down the back and then he goes back up this ramp all the way back to the andesite farm collects andesite drops that off then once he’s empty he goes and gets kelp and then drops that off goes back to andite and so on hopefully before the end of the day

We’ll have a new vehicle for doing that but anyway I got distracted this road this is what I want to sort out first because well it looks a bit of a Mess by which I mean it’s it doesn’t look a mess it’s way too formal it really needs

Breaking up a bit and for that I think I’m going to mess around with a few different types of deep slate see if we can get some sort of Darker patches I think I pretty much want the entire outer edge to be a little bit darker and

Have the road look a little bit lighter in the middle and I reckon if I use the right mix of blocks I might just be able to do that so my first experiment is the nogo I don’t like all the lines we’re getting on this Bassel here so I’m

Thinking if we swap it out for smooth bass Sal that might solve that problem well attempt number two is looking a little a bit better and the zombie seems happy there’s a whole lot of other mobs around as well I really should like this place up but the road itself is

Definitely looking better I’ve mainly used smooth bassal we’ve got the occasional bit of normal bassal as well we’ve got the sanded deep slat which I’ve basically used to try and sort of Mark out some tire tracks and then we’ve got the occasional shiny bit as well just because really it kind of helps

Break it up a little bit but now what I need to do is sort out the rest of this road and the rest of that road and that road and this road here pretty much going all the way over there so it looks like we’ve got loads of road to sort out

I’ll see see you in a Bit there we go I think the road’s looking a lot better we’ll probably continue to improve it over time and mess around with it but it’s definitely looking a lot better than what it did cuz it was just deep slate all throughout I’ve already done up to the

Top of the ramp V because I’ve actually had an idea for this area here and it’s probably going to involve me needing to sort of adjust all these roads move things about a little bit so for now we’re just going to ignore that and pretend that it looks nice and what

We’re going to focus on now is trying to get these warehouses sitting a little bit nicer in the dock I think my jetpacks just run out of fuel and I have no more lava and only a tiny bit of water okay I guess we need a refill but

Refilling is nice and easy these days because we have an infinite lava pool and I just have a pump here that just sort of spits out the lava so I just stand here for a moment or so and we’ll end up with four tanks of it there’s

Probably a way to automate this to make it a tiny bit quicker but only takes a moment last those restocked where were we that was it we want to make the docks look nice so I’ve got a few plans I’ve got a few ideas of things I want to do I think

We’re going to have like a big sort of crane running on Rails that goes up and down here and in theory we should be able to get that to move as well but we’ll see I think over here I might just have like some shipping crates I think

Having big piles of shipping crates on a dock kind of makes sense especially near the crane and in fact I think I might do that bit first so I think I want to get up a fence if we use cat panels we can decide what we’re actually going to make

It out of later I think an area about that size should work but we need lots and lots of shipping containers or volts as they are I guess so I do want to do more of the containers that look like this that means I’m going to need a load

Of volts we’ve already got 180 so that’s not bad that’ll probably do us like three maybe four volts but we’re going to need a lot more than that so that means we’re going to need a buttload of iron sheets do I have any more iron on

Me yeah we’ got some more in here so let’s swap this out for another press so I’ve made myself loads of shipping containers of various colors just using up what dies I had but I’ve also used the Chisel here to make lots of connected blocks of this sort of jungle

Flooring and Birch flooring and so on because I think it actually works quite well as crates so we’re going to have some of these scattered about and as well as that I’ve also used the chipped workbenches so that we can get these which are sort of created blocks

Basically so I think a combination of these and the shipping containers we could build up something quite nice around here but before I do any of that let’s get this fence filled in and I think we’re going to use these Hune Spruce planks for that thinking about it

I wonder if we can add some fence posts on this so if we make a bunch of these and some Spruce Wood we can but we can only put them on this side at the moment and I think I want them on the inside so

That means I need to move all of these okay now we can put some fence posts on the inside yeah that’s going to look cool maybe just one in the middle here as well nice that instantly looks cooler now let’s have some fun with SH shipping containers and I think seven blocks long

Looks about right and because these ones are on the dockyard they’re much more likely to be lined up a bit better than the ones that have just been sort of dumped in the yard over there so they are going to be a bit more like this as

Opposed to janky and all over the place I think that’ll do for shipping containers in this particular area for now but let’s get a few of these sort of random crates down as well there we go just a few boxes like that I think works

Pretty fine but I think I also want to sort out this corner here and possibly the side of this Warehouse oh hello we got guests health safeties back again is that an ender pearl on the road it is o I love that anyway distractions aside let’s do a little bit more decorating

Around here and I’ll bring you back in when hopefully we’ve got the area looking anyway as I was saying I’m going to make this area look nice and I’ll bring you back in once hopefully at least up to this point here it’s looking pretty good and then we can maybe think

About getting a crane or something in that’s looking much better the side of the building is looking nice and busy and the front here well this corner area is looking all right right as well I do still want to change up all this seaw wall area and so on and actually sort

Out this but we’ll get to that later first I want to sort out this wall here and I’m not going to do too much I’m basically just going to sort of weave in a few smoother patches using a little bit of andite some sanded Stone and also

Just some normal Stone and something I should think about trying to get my hands on soon is moss because I really could do with some Mossy blocks around here I think that would look pretty good but I I just don’t have a moss Farm or a vine farm at the moment so that’s

Something we’re going to have to come back to maybe we can stick a moss Farm in down here or something in a future episode let me know what you think so that view is definitely looking better although I really could do with getting some Mossy blocks but that’s going to

Have to wait for another episode because I want to focus on trying to get some kind of shipping dock crane type thing in here but I’ll be honest I don’t really know what they look like at least not enough to build one and if we want

To tie in with this area we probably want it to be kind of an older style one like a 50s 60s style thing so I’m going to do a bit of Googling and see what we can find well I’ve got a bit of have a confession to make I’ve been looking at

Loads of pictures of old school dockyard cranes and things like that and I got a little bit scared so I’ve spent the last few hours procrastinating about how I’m actually going to do this but I think I have a plan now and that procrastination has led me to have a little play with

The design of the dock I wanted something simple and repetitive that goes around but isn’t just sort of monotonous and brick like that side and I think this is working pretty well there’s nothing sticking out so ships can still come in and Dock and it works

Quite nicely on this side as well so I don’t know I think I might run with it but I’ll probably make a decision at another point and then yeah we’ve got a lot of dock to do this wasn’t quick but I can’t procrastinate all episodes so I

Guess it’s time to build a crane and I think to get that started I need to put some tracks down this side maybe like a secondary runner on this side and then just start building up the crane this could be an interesting one so I think

I’m prepared I’ve got lots of stuff and things that’s hopefully going to help me get this build done and I guess the first bit is just going to be to lay a track of some kind and I guess I mean we’re going to want a main track and

Then we’re going to want like a runner that goes down the side right so maybe let’s start the main track about here and just run it down pretty much the entire length of the dock and maybe there going to need some kind of Stoppers so let’s just put those in but

We don’t really want this whole track being exposed like that so my plan is to basically just do that so we’ve just got the rail sort of protruding up from the dock yeah I think that’s going to work quite nicely and if we go about here and

Put a runner in what I want to do is just use stairs like that and I don’t know we’ll probably use a grindstone or something to make it look like it’s actually sort of running down it I don’t know we’ll figure that out later there

We go and I think using the cut hander sight just to give it that little bit of shine Works quite well against the stone but that was the easy bit now we need to build a crane so let’s just stick a station down say there for now hi that

Underground and create a new train and I think we want to use a triple axle here let’s maybe go for I think this one looks a bit chunkier right this is going to be the base of our crane I’m going to be using a lot of the metal girders and

Industrial iron I think to sort of build up this bottom area so let’s see what we can do we need to give it some kind of a frame first off let’s over that tracks so about there I guess then I reckon if we just go down here and get some

Grindstones on not that way around but that way the hope is that they’re going to look like they’re kind of running down here I mean it’s it’s close it’s not quite lined up but it’ll do so now I need to build up the shape and the cranes that I’ve been looking at they’ve

Got kind of like this weird platform they almost look a bit like an oil platform I guess where they’re thinner at the bottom and then they kind of expand out at the top and that’s where the cab is so I’m going to try to do something similar we’re going to

Probably want to make it a little bit wider here maybe use some of these framed blocks to give it a bit of shape is that going to work and maybe bring it back in at the top and we’re going to need some supporting bits that kind of

Come out here I guess and then we probably want another sort of framed area like this so that kind of a shape that doesn’t look quite right does it oh jeez right let’s get some more support in and see what we can do okay the extra support definitely helps then we’re

Going to need to build up a cab of some sort so let’s stick a ring of these blocks down first and figure it out from there I guess and on the pictures I looked at there always seem to be some sort of a catwalk type thing that runs

Around the whole Booth so let’s get that in I mean it’s looking pretty chunky but I don’t know hopefully once we get the cab on it might tie together a bit more but I’m really not sold at the moment I think we need a bit more support on

These beams here as well okay let’s just try building up a cab and see what we can do so the cab shape is quite funky it’s something sort of a little bit like that and it should probably stick out a bit at the back as well maybe with some

Of those if we use these in this corner here use the pillow blocks in there and then just put down a whole bunch of these framed blocks we’ll get more of these on top I think I want to shape the roof off a little bit here as well so

Maybe raise it a little bit raise it a little bit more with these then just go back down the other side I think we’re going to give that a go see how that’s going to look well it looks a little bit weird ow and it’s dark and the skellies

Scared let’s maybe add a little bit more of the framework for the crane and the lifting arm mechanism and all that jazz and I don’t know maybe that will switch up the roof a little bit or maybe I just need to change the color on it I don’t

Know we’ll figure that out in a minute for now let’s build up this Frame so for this back frame here we want something a bit like like that and then we need a big wheel in here and that’s what’s going to sort of control or help support

The upper arm at least that’s the plan and I’m wondering if maybe a crushing wheel would look quite good but I don’t know if I have any I literally have one okay let’s try this out so we’ll stick that there to make it look like it’s actually in there properly we can stick

Some shaes through the gers that’s pretty cool and do we want fly wheels on the end of these probably not so that side doesn’t have a flywheel that side doesn’t yeah that’s a bit much is isn’t it let’s get rid of the flywheel maybe we’ll save the fly wheels for the other

End but I think that should work quite well and we can even stick a chain sort of down the middle here and if we’re clever about this what we could do to make this make a bit more sense if we put a cog there and I wonder can you put

Brackets on cogs is that a thing it is yeah that looks cool okay looking pretty good out on the Windows let’s quickly grab some glass and get those sorted question is what glass we want to use we’ve got loads I’m thinking maybe this square glass here could be

Pretty good there we go that’s looking better kind of it just really needs the crane bit I suppose hopefully that’ll tie it together I mean the crane arm itself is probably going to start around here somewhere and kind of go off in that direction I mean it’ be nice to be

Able to move it as well so we’ll give that a go but yeah if we do that it’s going to cover up a lot of this side and maybe that’ll make me feel a little bit better about it when in down hide it so if we wanted to make this our move we’re

Going to need to use mechanical Pistons I think nope not mechanical Pistons mechanical bearings just make ourselves a little way in here and maybe we should put a floor down as well right well we have one mechanical bearing but I guess that’s all we’re going to need let’s

Make sure we set that only place when the anchor is destroyed cuz we don’t need one on that side as well we can just sort of pretend that there’s one there we only need one controller right we need to make an arm which I suppose initially we’re going to be making it so

It goes pretty much straight up and then we’re going to angle it afterwards so let’s just start here and see how we get on all right looking good I think that works but what I need to know is can we move the arm and make it look good I

Need to make sure I don’t stick this arm to the rest of the body so let’s go this way first and see how we get on so let’s see if this is going to work oh oh dear okay it’s it’s working too well it’s it’s kind of in the right so

Where is it now it’s over there okay and now it’s it’s down there jeez so we are always going to be operating this by hand crank but that was crazy fast so what I need to do is get some of these cogs and slow that right down if

We put a big Cog there and then a small one that should go a little bit slower still needs to be slower so let’s get rid of that let’s put that in there slow this right down so we’ve got fine control over it let’s change the direction we can go that way we’re

Jumping into free cam here I can see that I’ve left behind one bit of chain so we should probably get that attached but other than that that seems to be working okay although to get it to go back up I do need to literally reverse it on the rotation controller but that’s

Not the end of the world now what I need to do is glue together the rest of the train without gluing the arm directly to it because well the mechanical bearing should be the thing that attaches it so I’ve glued the whole train together and hopefully if we assemble this yep that

Seems to have worked though we can’t seem to use the handle anymore that makes me sad but does the crane go up and down does so we can have the crane go up and down the dock but we can’t move the arm unless the train is disassembled well that’s not ideal so

That leaves us with a bit of a decision to make do we want control of the arm or do we want control of the train or the crane I should say so what happens if we move the crane first and then assemble the train and move it oh that’s really

Not good that’s not what we want at all so in today’s episode we’re making a static crane I mean there must be a way we can do it I mean potentially if we shifted this crane off of a train thing and instead put a Gantry in this side

And just had like a fake train track could we then still control the arm cuz Technically when a Gantry stops it resolidifies the thing and stops it being a Contraption right this is something we’re going to have to look into in future I think for now let’s

Just treat this as a static crane which I suppose does give us the benefit of being able to put in the rest of the chains so for example if we do this where’s that going to link up I’d say pretty much exactly where it needs to

Maybe the crane can go a very slight bit lower so let’s move this to one just so we’re doing very slight adjustments yeah there we go that looks better already and I think I do want to change the color of that roof but we’ll get to that

In a minute what I want to do now is have a dingly dangly bit but there’s nothing to connect it to so I guess we’re going to have to come up from the sea Flor so I could use a rope pulley here and just have like a rope dangling

Down but I think I’m going to have to have a play around in a creative copy of the world and see if we can do things with gantries and that and actually get this working cuz I don’t really want to waste my time doing that in this episode

In Survival cuz I don’t think it’s going to work so for now we’ll just make it look good and if my creative experiments work we’ll come back and rectify this later so instead we have a wonderful looking static crane for now does make me a little bit sad that we can’t move

It properly but oh will right now let’s swap out this roof I don’t like the fact that this is all gray up here and I wonder would pillar bricks be too much little splash of red maybe I mean it’s pretty bold but I quite like it and I

Also need to sort out some kind of entrance so do I have ladders I do so if we put a ladder there that’ll get us onto this bit and then we need to get up there maybe copycat panels are the way to go so if we place

Those like that ladders on the front and for the crane I think that’s done although I’ll tell you what I think I do want to raise the arm up a a little bit and maybe just move where this chain is which I guess means we’re going have to

Move that one as well but that’s fine so we’re going to move this chain up by a block cuz I think it’s going to look a bit better if it’s kind of looks like it’s wrapping round this yeah that feels a bit better and I think I prefer the

Angle on this as well but now we need to fix this bit here all right job done for now at least but next up I think I need to sort a proper delivery vehicle for the kelp over here because andesite man really shouldn’t be down here and it

Might be quite nice just to sort of Park a static vehicle here as well I think it’s a good spot for it and then we’ve got just some other general tidying up to do as well I kind of want to put some backyard space I think on these

Warehouses as well I don’t really know but let’s try and stay focused and get this dock here finished first so let’s go grab some stuff from over there and hopefully we should be able to crack on with this straight what in the world hey excuse me oh hello theread may I ask

What you’re doing this is uh private property don’t you know yeah I was wondering when I’m going to just uh meet the owner of this establishment cuz uh uh I’m with this health and safety inspection and uh I’m I’m going to tell you this is quite the situation you got

On your hands here oh perfectly safe and healthy situation I think you’ll find there’s no health and safety issues here whatsoever well I mean I’ve been conducting quite a bit of research and uh found quite a few violations here and there right um maybe we should have this

Discussion uh not in the middle of a road this isn’t a health and safety violation this is just standing in the middle of a road yeah um probably should put up a a sign here actually speaking of we should put up quite a few signs I actually started already because this is so

Egregious uh but I don’t if you know I mean I I agree with this I I actually I I thoroughly agree with this yeah you might take a stroll with me real quick maybe we can spot a few more like oh my God there’s a train yeah

That’s fine you just have to keep an eye out for trains I mean we’re going to have to wait for it to move the cross see look as a health and safety officer should you just be running in front of trains like that oh yeah no no no no we

Shouldn’t check this we we should leave this building this yeah okay good thing I have like the exact one for this and there we go course expose my shine okay fair it is a little bit I have got a safety barrier though are those blaz

Kakes yes in front is this okay that’s a lava tank yeah and if I’m oh yep there’s the there’s the boiler there’s the boiler there’s the BL okay okay which I can’t can’t have that hold up there we go fire hazard is is there anything you

Don’t have a sign for uh well I do have this one hold on uh there you go it’s for that time your hor died it is absolutely beautiful I have to say wonderful if only there was somewhere I can get my hands on these myself if only you could and you

Can I don’t actually know the you know website of your shop well I do it’s Mr beard stone.com it’s fairly easy to remember but yes I have actually launched a merch store you can get some of this funky stuff on like t-shirts and mugs and posters and all sorts in fact

It’s probably scrolling by on the screen right now oh hopefully so and there’s a commemorative collection of merch with the ri pickles design dedicated to our everybody’s favorite dead horse I mean you didn’t have to put it quite like that like I how do I have to

Site that did did we ask everyone who their favorite horses no no we didn’t I mean technically there’s been like four horses now well thank you very much Mr Health okay see and if you had a danger sign over here yeah maybe I would have stopped him there we

Go that’s why you got to have these all over the place just to remind me not to get run over by vehicles of my own making put it on a cup following that encounter I decided to place some of the new signs lawyers made me down by the

Docks to start the next transition phase and by the way zy actually has his own create series running at the moment too so be sure to go check that out I then got to work on texturing the stone to break it up a bit added some crates to

The end of the pier as well as a few lights so hopefully less mobs will spawn and then I got to work making a new truck to park between the warehouses I made it in the same format as the other trucks so that it can use the same drop

Off and pickup points as required but then I made the back of the truck something other than a flatbed and just plunked a small shipping crate around the storage interfaces with the addition of some more track underground and a few signals I parked up the new truck and

And now here we are little by little making progress on our Docks but I think I will sort this out now so the first thing I’m going to do I guess is uh I should probably wait for him to get to the other end when he gets to the other

Side and he’s emptied off all of his kelp and he’s back in the andesite factory I’m going to change his schedule so he doesn’t come down here anymore that’s it my friend come to here so if we remove that one and that one and then

That one and that one and I think we should be good although to be honest I think it’s about time we fix this as well well so if I actually remove these two Crossings here and here and also if I’m quick I can grab this guy and once

Again just remove all of the crossings what I’m going to do is I’m going to get rid of those stations and we’re just going to swap them out for signals cuz they really don’t need to be stations I’ve worked out so these should be good to carry on but in a minute they’re

Going to say that they can’t find a route cuz they’re going to try and get to the crossing stations that I’m just about to remove I think I’ve got all those sorted so the trucks yep exactly what we wanted they don’t pause at these Crossings anymore and the same thing

Should be true for the crossing over there when the blue truck goes in fact he’s going now so he should just swing straight round look at that and hopefully when a train comes in they’ll actually still stop like they’re supposed to but uh yeah we’re going to

Have to wait for a train for that but that also means I can make the schedules a lot shorter I haven’t got to add in all the crossing stations I can just add in their destinations and so on it should be a lot easier for me moving

Forward apart from the fact that guy’s decided to reverse okay well I have no idea what’s going to happen here I don’t know what the yellow guys is doing over there the blue guys reversing somewhere where are you off to right okay we’re going to have to

Figure this dude out he’s not doing what we want but basically I think after drop off he’s seeing a shter route to get to where he wants to go by going that way so he’s trying to sort of reverse all the way I think so that means what I

Need to do is maybe just change the order of the stations he goes to and turn him around the right way and I’ve also got to build and set up the kelp delivery truck too so I’m just going to mess around with this for a little while

Until it’s all sorted and I’ll bring you back in when hopefully everything’s working as it should and eventually after a lot of messing around later I did finally manage to get everything working so I floated in the sky for a day or so and just made sure that there

Were no crashes that even when the trains arrived everything still worked and overall I’m very pleased with the results so we’ve now got all the trucks going around nothing scratching into each other anymore and they’re not pausing when they go to go across the crossing which makes me very very happy

But it took a lot longer to get those schedules sorted than I’d hoped so sadly I’ve actually run out of time for this episode but I hope you’ve enjoyed it and I’ll see you on the next one bye-bye now it’s all over the place how are you not
