Minecraft: post what's in your mine

I am currently uploading a short video demonstrating how I am implementing a Subway System in my Minecraft world. It's a bi-directional hub that would work on any map. It looks and works great :D I haven't built a connecting station yet, so it has a weird cut-off and loop just outside of the gate so that it can be demonstrated (obv won't be in the actual system) So excited for the video to finish!
 
No because I am testing this and its on peaceful mode. I would likely illuminate it the entire way down were it not.

The castle is copy-pastaed from another project, just wanted something at the end of the subway line. It's pretty nice and houses all my resources.

My Wife and I built this tonight on our private server. A greenhouse tree farm/hydroponics farm, a nice little house, a silo for storage, an incinerator, and a massive mine with a powered minecart to go in and out. Not bad productivity. :heart:
 
Although it's not nearly as kickass as the other stuff posted in here, I'm totally building an underwater/underground installation right now. At the moment, I'm making the parts that make it sustainable. (i.e. farms. I always give my major installations a farm for every single item in the game that can be farmed, including animals. I don't really care if the fact that I have pig spawners means it's obviously edited)

That said, once I'm done with the farms, I'll move on to the more fun stuff. Namely, living and social quarters. I plan to make it look like it was actually an installation where a bunch of people lived, so there will be several levels of living quarters with different levels of awesome. The highest level will be large private suites with windows into the ocean and various things representing decadence. The lowest levels will essentially amount to barracks, with communal facilities. I'll also be building stuff like a library, sports areas and at least one park, and a pool. (Oh, the irony of an underwater pool) Oh, and there's going to be a cafeteria and such too. Plus a warehouse. Hmm, I might as well just make this a military facility of some sort, huh?
 
I'm still building my version of the Monastery at Petra :]

I found a giant mountain, and instead of building, I'm digging the monastery directly into the stone. Am using Lapis Lazuli and gold blocks for accents. There's a noob hospitality area and a fountain :). When I'm done there'll be a massive throne/"treasure" room, hanging gardens on the sides, a stepped farm going down the back, a bunch of more regal private quarters, and a subway hub so all of my other subway tunnels can connect there :]

Had to painstakingly remove all the dirt and non-stone stuff and replace it with stone to really start. And cordon it off with fences and toss torches everywhere b/c it is apparently on top of a creeper/skeleton breeding ground or something.

I only have like an hour or so to work on it every few days so it's taking forever @_@

Also anyone know of a [bukkit] mod that allows wolves to pass through single doorways? It drives me nuts that I have to make 1x1 "doggy doors" everywhere
 
TIL that you can dye sheep with the dying materials to get extra wool, instead of just dying white wool. Also, I learned that there is such thing as a Lapis Lazuli block (looks just like blue wool, but takes 9 Lapis Lazuli.)

That being said, my wife and I continued to strip mine underneath our base (currently looks like a prison or something.. maybe i'll try and get a screenshot with MCEdit) and are currently sitting on over 128 Diamond, 256+ Iron Ingots, 128~ Gold Ingots, about 8 double-chests full of Cobblestone, and are having a fucking blast.

@Venetia: You should post in-progress build images, I love seeing those.

I'm currently working on a huge underground minecart system to connect my lovely world, kind of boring but I don't have any other ideas at the moment..

@ Venetia: Wolves are already able to pass through doors without using a mod :eek:

???????
mine passed through double doors with both doors open ONCE, after trying like 60 times. and single doors are just impossible for him to get through. it is infuriating. a lot of people seem to be having that prob on the MC forums. maybe it's just an SMP thing?

Thanks to my obsessiveness, I have to have all of my underground areas be nothing but stone. Which means I have to dig out all dirt, gravel, and sand and replace those blocks with SMOOTH STONE. Fire up the furnaces - we're cooking cobblestone tonight!
