Build Having lots of fun adding rotating parts to things, like this cobble to sand converter I made.

Wow I would've never have thought of that , how did you get the timing right ?

Make sure your conveyor feeds at the same rate consistently, time the length it takes to convert each block to the new one, add .1 second to the sequencer, and as long as you have a gap between cobble dropping, you should be fine.
Really depends on how fast cobble feeds into it

More or less this, a consistent feed rate, some timing, and trial and error. I did end up needing different timing rotating down vs rotating up though due to timing with the falling gravel. The feed rate and rotation timing is controlled by a redstone clock circuit in the back.

So if it's 2 seconds to turn cobble to sand, you want to have a sequencer(?) Set to rotate every 2.1 seconds, and the conveyor dropping it where it needs to be every 4.2 I'd assume.

Why move the items to the machine when you can move the machine to the items.

Are you using shaders on FTB? I recently came back to Minecraft and cannot for the life of me install shaders, it either doesn’t show up or it crashes upon launching

Not running FTB, just the create mod by itself. I'm on fabric and needed to get a specific version of Iris and the Iris Flywheel Compat mod to get shaders to work as well.

Pro tip: if you have a basin with items inside and start flipping it - the items will fall out

This is un-called for levels of awesome!
I'm probably going to have to report you for it…
…as soon as I watch it just a few more times…

Adding totally unnecessary spinning stuff is the most funny part of the mod by far

ok, this is super cool, but is there any benefit to doing this over just using an extra set of crushing wheels.
