[@MinecraftGamer-yi2ct]

26:54 I am a redstone guru, so let me explain. Repeaters do three main things. Extend the redstone strength, delay the redstone signal, and if it is just a short pulse, it will also extend the pulse to the same length as the delay. This third thing is most likely what causes problems because a three tick pulse would activate the observer twice, thus adding an extra pulse to the clock each time. A fourth thing they can do is hard power blocks. And a fifth thing is lock other repeaters. If I missed anything they do, please reply what I missed. Also, if this comment helps you please let me know, because I like writing helpful comments, but I don’t know if they really help.

[@jonathanpeters4240]

That about covers it, and yeah you're correct about observers detecting it turn on and off at 3 ticks of delay. I'm sure this kind of comment is helpful, when I was a redstone noob I always learned something from reading comments.

[@MinecraftGamer-yi2ct]

⁠@@travislapham3479 If I understand the question correctly, nothing. A repeater will only effect the block in front of it. Unless of course an observer detects it

[@hookedbycrafting5348]

You said do 3 things then list at least 5...

[@MinecraftGamer-yi2ct]

@@hookedbycrafting5348 Three main things. It has five uses that I know of, but I only consider three of them main uses

[@jonathasqntjonathas]

I saw that happening when I was building this, tryed change the amount of ticks and happend exactly how you said.

[@rampawar]

By watching just the intro, even though I'm not gonna build this now, I'm very interested to continue watching this video just because you kept the description short and simple and convinced me that it is easy to build. Wanted to give this feedback because I really liked this type of intro

[@Toaston120fps]

Cap build it 😂

[@cptCrax]

I love the visual explanation with the lamps. You're the best!

[@IamGrief887]

I'm actually quite intimidated by the prospect of building an item sorter, but your tutorials always take into account that your viewers might have no idea what they're doing, and I appreciate that.

[@RocketboyCreative]

Prowl! I built your last item multi-item sorter with water elevator. Made some adjustments with a bubble elevator and made 4 huge segments. Needless to say my server mates love it! So thank you!! 🙏🏼

[@1Ryat]

Thank you for this video. I have a massive cavern beneath my mountain castle that would hold this quite well. Thanks for all the book marks and explanations that help with understanding which allows me to edit and modify to fit it where I want it to.

[@ItsNixter]

Ok I watched it all. This is pretty impressive. I have built item sorters many times and I always have some sort of annoyance while building it. Sometimes I just wanna set them on fire. But I build everything you come up with and usually preffer it in the end. So this should be fun, and thank you.

[@ZacharyKentVT]

I actually have set mine on fire before. I feel ya.

[@jugerite]

I will definitely build this. Thanks Prowl

[@HP_Burrito]

I like this design. I've done systems like this on older worlds but i need a new one for my current world and i think I'll utilize this system thanks for the video

[@curious_corvid]

Genius! Thank you so much! I’ve been trying to get a working item sorter tutorial for a while now! 😁

[@Zach8ry]

I’ve built lots of these storage systems and this is the best! Thank you prowl and your redstone explanation is brilliant!! 😊

[@ceuchi188]

This system is awesome! I´m looking forward to build this in my world!! Thank you!

[@Zogg1281]

I dug out a huge area for a storage system on my last world, but I could never decide on the sorting system to use due to the number of items I wanted to be able to store. Really looking forward to trying this in my current world...... especially as I'm already starting to get to the point where I feel like blowing up the storage area I'm using! 😅 Thanks for the video 😊👍👍👍👍👍

[@Cainomed]

An other masterpiece from Prowl... It was so amazing to see the process during the live, and the result is just perfect, interesting, pretty simple and straightforward. Thank you for your huge work.

[@TA-dg5ve]

Thanks for your tutorials Prowl. This was pretty cool to build and greatly helped with my storage mess. Thanks again and congrats on the play button.

[@pathagenic1648]

Definitely going to give this one a try! I have several of your older ones around, and can see how this would make it easier to work around some of the problems I've had. Thank you, I'll let you know how it goes!

[@jeremyhunt160]

Great job, as always Prowl. I will probably build this in my current world as it seems better than the multi-item storage I built in my last world and I like silent redstone devices 😂

[@Zer010X]

Built this (15 slices) since I do play on android mostly I found that adding two ticks helped with skips. Many thanks kind sir! 11/10 tutorial.

[@auldrick]

Years ago I tried to adapt ImpulseSV's multi-item storage system to Bedrock, but that was before we had Observers and nobody at that time yet knew how to make a reliable item elevator more than 3 blocks tall, so it wasn't reliable and items would skip one chest in every other slice. I haven't thought about that in a long time, but I'm ready and eager after your video. I just need an iron farm to make all those hoppers (my current survival world is still in the early game).

[@jamieecclestone1025]

Thanks for the tutorial will be making this in my world looks easy to follow and resource friendly

[@tasha8102]

I’ve waiting for this an easy to follow. On my list of things to do in my world.

[@040ryno]

I've got a 9 chunk storage system project that I just could not finish simply because I could not decide on the transport system... Hoppers or water .... This is of great help tnx Prowl. You upping the redstone game. Master level delivery!

[@thedachmo]

Great video prowl - this is as good as you said it would be both as the video and the system itself. This is getting built on BMC ASAP. My chest monster(s) are starting to drive me insane 😂

[@kymclum1837]

This is the first one of these that 1) explains why we do what, so if it breaks I can fix it, 2) gives me small increments so I can test. I've watched three of these systems, yours is the first I successfully got up and running. Thank you so much

[@gnocchiparmesan]

I absolutely love this design! I was just planning to figure out how to re-figure out bedrock redstone mechanics to design my own but this is basically the dream machine. The only thing that was a little hard to figure out was how expensive I wanted to make it heh!

[@madgruntilda]

In the middle of setting up a big room in my build, nice that I can customise the size 👍 getting to the point I need to upgrade from basic chests. Shulker storage too, I feel spoiled 😍

[@NerdusOptimus]

Finally a multi-item sorter that makes sense. I will be tearing my old one down and building this. Thanks Prowl!

[@Imru_gamer]

This was amazing,I wanted to make a sorter but I forgot how to. I love the clock idea. Thank you so much. Love and respect. 🙏👍🔥

[@Mahol3400]

Prowl does it again. A really good tutorial. Everything is explained in great detail. I like that the system can be build in any size you like and thorough instructions are provided on this aspect as well. Only downside for me is that there is a space between the chests in the upward direction.

[@Prowl8413]

Yep, the space between chests is the tradeoff. There are systems that have no gaps, but they are thicker, and a complete mess of rails, observers, and redstone that is very hard to place.

[@jamieecclestone1025]

Getting ready to build this in my world thanks for the tutorial

[@goldenhelmet403]

Great job, Prowl!

[@BanditTech]

Really glad I found this video! I made some improvements to the design you may be interested in: Instead of using an observer tower to return the items, I use a glass shaft running on the same clock signal. When a player inputs items into the storage, the items come from the floor through the glass shaft giving you some visual eyecandy. All I had to adjust to get the timing again from the elevator was adding one more locking row of hoppers at the top. 3 blocks of space between the Chests and the glass shaft gives exactly 7 blocks of space for a water item chute. It adds a lot of charm to the build. I also combined some basic item filters with the input hoppers. This directs all minerals into the second wall (ore, ingots, nuggets, blocks, raw ore, emeralds, diamonds, redstone) This skips some items farther ahead in the item waterfall :) Wall1 flows to Wall3, then 2 and 3 flow to the dump chests. I also added a redstone torch below the lever to enable the system, and it locks the input hopper when the system is disabled. (to help kid-proof it)

[@lifeaslisa2675]

Do you have any pictures or instructions for how you did this? I love the idea of the glass shaft!!

[@luisianaolivieri3912]

Could you give me a tutorial for this?

[@pamelajackson9588]

I've never built an item sorter since they seem to intimidate me but this seems completely doable! I understood everything you explained. Can't wait to attempt this, thanks!!!

[@casmassart8097]

Great video Prowl, like your style of video's and it's very good explained

[@bryandougherty7286]

Just redid my item sorter on my PS5 to this and it works great. Much smaller then what I had before. Thanks

[@Sweet0ne-87]

This is awesome! Been looking for a good item sorter tutorial and I dont know how redstone works so if something goes wrong (following any other video) I'm stuck bc idk how to fix it. Here, I have an idea of how I can maybe fix it if soemthing is wrong bc you explained HOW it works every step of the way! Thank you for being so thorough with all your builds, especially Redstone!

[@castilloenrair2928]

Very well explained, thanks!

[@melissaromano9469]

Thanks for this! I am new to minecraft and have been trying to figure out how I was going to create a storage system that does both multi items and bulk storage. I think this will work great!

[@PapaSnuffy]

😎 This is a fabulous invention! I've never seen an item sorter that is so efficient and yet so simple to construct. Your explanation is easy to follow and player friendly. Super job, thanks!

[@jonathasqntjonathas]

I got to say, you are the best content creator of minecraft that I know. I'm into minecraft from a short time, started to have a diferent game tham roblox to play with my child, and loved the game (more than my son actualy...) and almost no one explain the mechanics as well as you do. Just one thing I think you can do, is show the total area needed to for the structure you are going to show, but I just wanted to tell that you are doing a great job!

[@Endersgamejp]

I think you did a great job. Thankyou... You said suggest something and this was the first thing I could think of.

[@iDaneya]

oh my god THANK YOU FOR EXPLAINING HOW IT WORKS!!! it makes it so much easier to build and visualise!!

[@ghale91281]

Great tutorial, I’m going to play around in creative to make sure I can follow, but I definitely need this in my survival world!!

[@Tummelisa1989]

This is great. I built a item storter in one of my earliest minecraft worlds (way back in the days) it made my base lag som much I hade to move out 😂

[@DavidFrost9992]

That has been my experience with them, too.

[@scarletladyv6394]

Love your tutorials and how you explain the steps. Your work shows you put a large amount of time and effort to make sure your system works!

[@JeffreyLongII]

I'm going to be building this on BMC shortly. Need to finish some other stuff first, but it is on my list now.

[@sbel1175]

I've been hoping you would do one of these for ages. because I know if you do the tutorial, it's going to work. Thank You!!!!! Can't wait to give it a try :)

[@zurknjurk]

Discovered this and was super excited, spent some time making a witch farm for more redstone and mining nether quartz for all the observers, only to realize you wrote it's for Bedrock. I hoped it would work in Java but it doesn't - at least the item elevator doesn't because the observers don't flicker the torches in front of them. Too bad, I subscribed but I'll have to find another guide :(

[@TheAlienDoctor]

Good job Prowl! This design looks wayyy smaller than any I've seen before :D

[@Prowl8413]

Glad you like it!

[@jeremyhippy7499]

Love the video as always myself this comes very useful at the moment I'm trying to come up with the storage apparatus to store a chest of every item in the game if I can manage it lol

[@GWizFuller]

Looks good!

[@jenniferdighton8299]

Thank you for explaining how the red stone works. It’s really helpful to see how it works so I know if I am doing it correctly. Thank you for demystifying it for me❤

[@bubblesbubbly8525]

Prowl, you have completely outdone yourself on this one! Seriously, I was basically finished putting in all my item filters for my grand storage room (which I hope will eventually connect with some of my farms)... And I'm most likely going to rip out ALL of that stuff behind the scenes and install this system. One question though - my storage room is designed with regular gaps for some decorative columns - do I just need to put in an observer/torch tower behind each column to make up for the spots I won't have chests??

[@sbel1175]

That is an excellent question. I'm looking forward to the answer

[@danialBeard4653]

it's a cool design. and I learned so much about redstone. cheers

[@Prowl8413]

Thanks!

[@irisbear9421]

This is awesome 🎉

[@captainaveeno3698]

Great job. I think this item sorter will work even with clunky bedrock glitches. It also seems like you can unload the area without any issue due the spacing and slow timing. These are very very slow to get a shulker full of items sorted. I built silence whisperer sorting system in creative first. Worked fine but lost some stuff in the system every so often. Built in realm and completely broken. Seems much more reliable and much, much less expensive.

[@yasufumithebest]

Silence build always broken.. not reliable.

[@DeckiDance]

Me and my partner have spent 5 months building a mega storage, however it's only 380 individual filters so I'm going to slap this on to it and get all the random stuff like slabs and all the foods, stuff like that and than my main storage is for all the mass quantity stuff. Tip if u want a storage system and have a phone, by minecraft join your world and pop him in the centre, make sure he can load everything and your storage will always run, this improves the quality of having a system like this alot better.

[@shevaalomar5415]

very nice tutorial a sub is earned here

[@jacoblarocque1455]

Built it to spec worked off the go minimal misses but I was ok with that as my systems a bit bigger 4 sets of 15 slices and another 64 slices of bulk storage on the other side. This worked for me for a while. I MUST STRESS THOUGH. Even with a new gen console you won’t be able to build any other redstone contraptions larger then a bamboo farm without causing major breakage. THIS SYSTEM IS AWESOME VERY EXPENSIVE BUT AWESOME. Make sure you give it some space to breathe though unless your out here playing bedrock on a nice PC

[@daveschenkel1446]

Just Built this and it works great, thanks. this is a lot better than then the old way of shorting items.

[@Prowl8413]

Great to hear!

[@xdustinx09]

Is it still working for you? The newest comments are saying the observers are not flicking torches. Also my first redstone torch in the system is not locking the hopper. Or alteast I believe that's what is happening. With the system off my items still flow through 🤷. After that nothing goes to where its supposed to.

[@dbxlfan6766]

Extensive build but great tutorial and actually easy ounce you do one slice. Thnx.

[@GabrielMartinez-cj1gn]

Something I absolutely love about this is that there are no minecarts floating in water and worrying about chunks and borders. Thank you my new mega base has a fully functional item sorter. Perfect

[@soulhunter2720]

that is on of the best explanation ever

[@AuntieNic]

Interesting system. Very expensive but I can see advantages. Thanks

[@mrchips6330]

This video has so much good info . How ever for my single player world it looks really expensive with the hoppers and observers . I do like the in depth explanation of how it works though

[@TheHellis]

Hoppers are cheap, the observers though... That's the big letdown on this system. Iron and gold for the rails is easily farmable, stone, wood and such are just materials you can gather. But the nether quartz is a different topic.

[@fradees8172]

Very handy to see the arrows on the hoppers how do you get that. Sorry im new to the game i've been playing over about a mounth now. But is that a pack you need to download or is that a setting you need to turn on. Also just subbed to the channel thank you for the clear explanation of what you are doing.

[@vladtepis1017]

I have built more complex ones...this is a nice simple design, nice job Prowl!

[@samyoung9818]

Prowl love the video a the live stream what texture pack do you use for the hoppers ??

[@abracadizzle]

Beautiful system

[@danielheller9610]

It works almost perfect I love your guide's easy to follow cause you show every step slow! My only problem is, how decide I what goes into fixed chests? Or do I have to fill the entire chest, with at least 1 per slot like you did with moss and cobblestone?

[@dynamicesk8771]

So theoretically, if I didn’t want to use a ton of observers for the item elevator, could I use a water elevator fed by a dropper? Alternatively, could I just use a dropper facing upwards to feed items into a solid 3x3 “tube” to get them to whatever height I needed? I am a fairly novice player when it comes to Redstone so I’m not sure if I could substitute the dropper item elevator for a solid tube or water elevator. I’m in the process of building my sorter right now so either way I’ll find out when I try it. I’ll update with the results!

[@mikeyettner]

I just started playing a couple of months ago and i recently started making some farms on my creative world to get the confidence to build. This will be one that ill try and build on creative to put in my survival. Only problem is i cant put it in my house. I turned an ocean monument into my house. 😂

[@Mr_Grim3s]

That's alot of observer's and droppers but I like it, I like it alot but won't be building it not in my world but I most probably will if I start a new world 😉👍. Great tutorial and even tho I don't get on with redstone you made this pretty easy to understand 😍 Great job 👍

[@shyguy-oc2rq]

That you for making this video you should definitely make more videos like this

[@bananahammock85]

You have to be one of the most helpful streamers out there.

[@minechef9628]

System works apart from I noticed the redstone torch and observer towers being pretty unreliable so switched the hopper locking tower to use bells instead of torches which provided a consistent pulse time. Also replaced the item elevator with glass shafts and removed the droppers as items kept getting stuck and wouldnt budge, hooked the bottom droppers up to the systems redstone clock. These 2 changes and system seems to work reliably now with bedrocks janky redstone. Apart from that cool tutorial dude

[@Thodde26]

Hi, thx for the Video. The Storage System ist very Nice. What Resourcepack you use?

[@ruse_d_news]

man That's a lot of quartz. Here's some of what you'll need per slice 19 observers 12 droppers 19 hoppers.

[@9ballTimmeh]

Agreed. Should've started with a Piglin Bartering farm first to get all that quartz, lol.

[@ruse_d_news]

​​@@9ballTimmehlol. And a bamboo and iron farm for the hoppers.

I built ShulkerCraft's storage system and it works on bedrock. I'm so happy with the build as it looks super cool.

[@bencalver3370]

​@@ScoRPy22the one with the item filter rather than a categoriser storage?

[@Anubis012]

I uploaded a version that requires way less resources and works bit faster (won't break anytime soon in next updates either, thisone probably will due the funky use of the 2 tick observer bug).

[@DemokratieErwacht]

Cool, maybe one of the Most complex systems i ever saw, but it's cool.

[@undeadkiller2192]

It’s more expensive but I’m one one block I love the design instead of locking a hopper with items you make it to where you can have more than just one kind of stack item in there and it’s more compact than the others I will definitely use this thank you so much

[@albertramasso8988]

Prowl is the 🐐

[@SadieGamingYT]

I just found this video and it is amazing I’ve wanted to practice for playing with Minecraft and I would always have my storage/inventory really messy and chaotic. But if you read this could you give me a run down how you categorized each of your chests because Idk how to do that and in the video it wasn’t really talked through and I loved how you categorized it and would like to use that method of categorizing.

[@Josh-gl7ly]

Not OP but if you looked, he basically filled the chests with 1 item in each tile so as the hoppers cycle through it will only push an item through if the items in the chest match. This wouldn’t work for non stackable items like swords/armor/totems/etc. another way he had it was by using placeholders to fill the gaps that aren’t used. So say you want a chest solely for iron ingots but you only have 5. You can spread the 5 across 5 tiles and then the rest of the tiles you fill with a placeholder item. In the vid he used red tinted window panes that he renamed to space holder. But you don’t need to rename if you don’t want to

[@jsc3994]

So for one slice it's with all stuff including input it would be 10 chest's 8 wooden steps 34 hoppers 27 redstone 25 observers 10 redstone torches 13 droppers 1 comparator 2 redstone rails 1 redstone lamp 1 leaver 1 sticky piston 1 target block 8 redstone repeater's 6 glass

[@DrO9280]

Well... one of the tweaks I've made is using 5 repeaters. (Also technically, just for disambiguation, about 5 of those entries, including that, are for the clock rather than the slices.)

[@enon661]

My items are stopping in the first dropper. What would be causing this??

[@boredfish80]

Java? Something about the torch not being able to be turned off by observer. Not seen any followup comments/fixes yet 😕

[@TangyMonkey2369]

@prowl8413 if i am making this in a U shape, with 3 segments, (2) 15 blocks wide, and the short side 12... do I need to create the observer torch tower for each, or can I continue the signal on with reapeaters?

[@AllanAion]

In kinda scared using redstone, but I've made a few simple ones using redstone components. I've got a composter being fed seeds etc, but most items seems to get wasted, fed too fast, so I got to think that I just had to add a clock to slow the feeding down by a certain amount of ticks, right? The only other redstone things I've dated building is sugar cane, bamboo, melon and pumpkin farms, by following guides very strictly, not really understanding how my contraptions actually worked. Eventually I'll be comfortable building something like this.

[@GabrielMartinez-cj1gn]

[@adrianjobling7861]

Finally finished this gargantuan build! But must have made a mistake somewhere as top 2 rows of chests not filling up! 🤨

[@GucciGeorg]

I assume that items should fill up the top left chest first if you don't fill them with items. For some reason my system fills the leftmost row simultaniously, items are skipping chests, i already have one repeater set to max tick. Im playing on a realm on PS5. any suggestions? Update: Now it started filling the two left topmost blocks for some reason, skipping the every other chest in the leftmost row.

[@jakebergmann75]

I’ve tried to build this in survival and creative and I seem to run into the same problem. For some reason my hopper leading into my chests on my 3rd row seem to be locking and not transitioning items to the hopper below it. Any suggestions on how to fix it?
