Super slow rotation can be funny on a multiplayer server. Do stuff like making a tree that rotates incredibly slowly, or other various landmarks/things around someone's house. My favourite thing is rotating forests, although that takes a load of bearings and its a nightmare to glue.

I'd like like to think that putting the goggles on the mechanical arm is a reference to the scene in, i think, Iron Man 2, where Tony is yelling at a mechanical arm that has goggles on. I could be completely wrong, but it's fun to think about!

[@dejojotheawsome]

that would be cute!

[@arkues]

That infinite slow down does have a "practical" use case. When I first discovered create I saw the potential for building spheres in minecraft, but I noticed that any sphere building machine with a sufficiently large radius wouldn't work perfectly. The arm would move fast enough to skip blocks even at 1 rpm but if you slow it down even further, even though the full rotation would be abysmally slow, the outer reach of the arm would still be moving quite fast

True Fact #50 "Mechanical Arms or mechanical presses, mixers, etc. don't care if a depot is the same depot, just as long as one is in the same location" Meaning, you could glue depots on a mechanical barring.

Blaze Burners burn blue when super heated because, barring use of certain minerals in the flame, Blue fires burn hotter, this is because the fuel for these flames is typically FULLY combusted in the process, that causes them to release more energy. Depending on the minerals used, you can also get various colors of flames at the normal red flame temperature.

I have more of a tipp for create trains, when you have a mob controlling a train and you put a train controller on both sides of it your train tracks don't need to be a loop but they can go forward and back (nice if you only have one train on a track and don't want to make a loop)

1: being able to climb a rope allows you to create a rudimentary mineshaft by attaching a wind turbine/water wheel to a pulley that lowers a drill into the ground. You can sit on the drill as it goes down, and bail into any interesting cave/straight up out of danger. Also allows access to "service" areas of rope pulley lifts without needing a whole floor there (ik elevator pulleys kinda make those redundant, but eh.

number 5 can be used to keep a blaze burner on blue using cakes without wasting any. have a comparator being powered from the side with a signal of 3, which itself is powering the mechanical arm that feeds cakes to the burner. it will only grab a new one when it stops being blue. you can do the same technique for normal burning too. less fuel wasted!

[@johnm9263]

you can have two minecarts on the same contraption, because thats how you used to make trains and trams, using the minecart link the issue with your setup is that its too small for it to turn without breaking so if you dont have the capability nor desire to make a full rail system, you can just use minecarts for trains

[@CathodeRayKobold]

"You can extend your blaze cakes" Why though? Blaze cakes are incredibly cheap. They're just impossible to automate because you can't generate netherrack.
