This Lumber Mill Can Refine the Biggest Trees! - Scrap Mechanic Survival Mode #12

Check out my original Lumber Mill here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqnQiqOenJV5r7M I can't believe we're finally doing it for real!

I respect your desire to play legitimately versus exploiting glitches; it is far more rewarding when you get something to work as intended.

[@negativenarwhals]

Hey Moonbo, you can make the wood crusher turn off the blades automatically by putting a sensor and an xor gate, the sensor at the end of the thing so it detects when the piston wall is pushed in all the way. You hook up the sensor and the switch to the gate, then the gate to the engine. :)

[@FaSchla]

You also can use a controller for it, and save fuel.

[@dynamitemonkey6635]

Connecting both engine and pistons to the same button would be easier.

That lumber mill is awesome!

[@Dreigned]

Do you actually have to disconnected the tree from the pusher before you start it? once the last section comes into contact with the blades, seems like it would disconnect when the log changes state to cut pieces. just a thought, I haven't built this thing yet.

[@novas2285]

i have a same question and i need an answer

It probably would effect the pistons, perhaps even make then glitch out

I agree Moonbo I would rather see how you play the game. Honestly that's why I'm here. To be honest you Scrapman and kAN such different experinces day one. That it is why I continue to watch you 3 play through survival.

[@JustaGuy_Gaming]

I know the weld option was removed recently but I love the idea of a lumber mill over just an easy harvest/refine machine. If you made the feed tube a bit wider you could possibly tilt the lumber truck to just dump the logs straight into the feed tube. Raise the walls and enclose it with a ceiling hing so they don't fly out.

[@Seakingpanda]

18:58 That's why being a lumberjack is so dangerous

[@michaelrevels3572]

Hey Moonboo, just a suggestion. If you add a blade at the very end that is stowed below/in the trailer and comes up at the very end you could still weld and you the saw blade at the end to cut off anything that hangs out to long and just reweld anything that falls off.

[@disorganizedbones8139]

[@greennitrogen8850]

[@timf7354]

Something that might be a little more efficient is adding a saw blade to the back of the truck. Then you grab the entire tree, mount it to your truck and run the saw to cut it to length. Then you can mount the chopped off piece too. No need to move your truck around to cut in half, since you are already out of the driver's seat.

Love the content Moonbo! If only I had a gaming PC, but when it's affordable I can't wait to do stuff like this!

[@TheCr0wned]

Probably the most creative, most awesome invention I've seen for scrap mechanic survival so far

[@agentv1240]

I'd say put a weld point on the front of the truck, like a little elbow piece at the center, then make a rig to house the sawblades and whatnot, instead of cutting holes into the truck for fairly unsightly mounting points for individual saw blade arms. Then you could also be able to hotswap attachments, so say you want the truck to cut trees, you can weld on an attachment with a bunch of saws and connect some buttons. If you want to be mining with the truck, you could do the same thing, but with drills.

[@KrawllUnchained]

I really love your method. I'm finally at the point where i'm ready to start logging in the game and i already started work on a machine before watching anyone's machines but, i decided to take a break and do a bit of a search for what people came up with in their games. That is how i ended up in this video and , i'm impressed. It's crazy though, the insane amount of different ways people have come up with to gather their wood. :-D This game is awesome.

[@JakeSimmer]

Im trying to repeat this machine... its nice to play around with the physics and machines and stuff, got a small car with a blade on the side... very funny!

[@shawnmeads1024]

If you add a side pusher onto the truck then a lid to the lumber mill you might be able to speed up the process. unhook the logs form the bed of the truck then push them into the mill. A tipper could also work.

[@ExoticButters4406]

Love your vids

[@steeljawX]

I've actually seen haybots distracted by large rock bits. Like when you first break up a block of rock for resources and it splits into the 2 big rocks (which splits into 2 smaller rocks a piece which yields 1 resource log a rock piece) a haybot was running at my vehicle and then it turned and then started attacking one of those. It actually broke it in half.

[@johnderat2652]

I was waiting for you to make it in survival for so long now, happy you finally got around to it!

[@dummie-8968]

[@disso42]

Idea: make a base out of the redwood trees themselves, I don't think farmbots can get through them

[@coltonparker2313]

Where how far from the first

[@hidan4098]

@M7MD Ch Well from watching many vidio about sm survival, i think the map isnt auto generated, but the starying point is different is random. I could be wrong bc i dont play, cmiiw

[@vargskelethor]

@@hidan4098 the starting point is always the same the world is auto generated

[@whackablemole]

@@hidan4098 The whole world is procedurally generated but the starting point is always in the same place, which is why many of the lets plays have started off similarly. Once you get away from the starting area though, everyone's map should look fairly unique. Well, as unique as you can when every structure looks very similar.

[@edskev7696]

I like your saw mill! Maybe adding some rollers underneath the wood would make it faster for the big logs? You could do that with some free bearings and pipe pieces

[@goaty0318]

All I could think if while watching this is that you could make an awesome log cabin.

[@alanboee]

you should put a roof on it, that way the logs dont fly out, and maybe a little bit more walls, just to guide it better

[@akiragreenful]

Amazing machine for sure. Does the tree roll in? Can you try make a ramp to roll the trees in the machine? Maybe put a stopper at the end of ramp to control the input so you can load lots of trees on the ramp if it's a possible thing

[@azazash6707]

i wonder if you actually need to break the weld when feeding the trees, or if it being fed through the saws breaks the weld for you. might save time.

[@rice9199]

If you want. Can you build a hammer powered boat?

[@epleprekahn4238]

If you plan on refining multiple trees at once, it should go a little easier if the back wall was a little taller. Great build either way.

[@captain_loeffel]

To be true, all this welding and so on costs a lot of time. I can get the same amount of wood done with my temporal solution. ;) But not bad at all. My suggestion, skip the last part, rebuild your sawmill a little bit with an additional side feeder and redesign your truck to a dump truck being able to unload to the side.

[@Lucas-gs7sk]

Cool idea. It’s nice to see people playing the game so differently.

[@mobilevadr6857]

Moonbo: The tree still exists in some way. Me: Well yeah, that's how things work. P.S. I know what he meant, this was only a joke I thought of when I heard him say that.

[@mrw5694]

Next maybe build your own base, and make it very cool... I would love to see that Moonbo...

[@Moonbo]

I'll be building a base soon, it's going to take a lot of grinding!

[@etonblakerussell]

Really cool build, my lumber mill doesn’t work as well as this, thank you for the help!

[@iainburgess8577]

So... I did this, too; but I wanted to compact it. I got it down to 1 saw blade on a piston, 3 sets of 7wide wheel stacks, 2 on pistons. Weld it behind the blade, activate, it almost autofeeds (had to lift/lower blade & innermost week set manually) the entirety of any tree. Set it up on a truck W collectors, refiner, chests, bobcat, so I chopped then straight to the mill.

[@ayasekaru]

You could probably build a sort of magazine for logs! Stack the lumber ontop of each other above it and let them drop in one by one

[@PuppyLuvU2]

Oh wow awesome. The truck could use some work to make it easier to take the logs off though but gotta say looking forward to trying this myself.

[@greenmelonx228]

Moonbo! You can place blocks with the vacuum pump, try placing cardboard block on the pusher and making it destroy with a spud gun so you dont have to destroy it and you can jut weld and its automated

[@AeciusthePhilosopher]

*Slaps roof of truck* This baby can fit so many trees/packs/farmers in it. I was wondering, wouldn't it be easier to just move the button to the back of the truck, so you can open the tailgate when you're standing next to it? I love how those sawblades are angled, btw!

[@alphariusomegon4442]

I don't even think he needed to unweld the tree because at the end of its cycle it's pressed against the saw blades

[@ncoll36]

I really like the concept of this lumber mill. It could probably be easily expanded to allow crushing more trees at once. The only thing I'm personally not a fan of, there is still a lot of manual work involved with the whole welding logs, remove blocks and what now. But still cool regardless.

[@PolymerChan]

WOW! im impressed!! Thanks for that, cutting tree in lumber was the worst thing for me , as my truck couldnt ever get the log right! but now im going to change my whole set-up!

[@coufar1971]

Thank GOD someone finally said what you prefaced your video with. I'm so tired of seeing people going to other youtubers playing this game and asking them to do the same glitches and concepts. They aren't even interesting in the first place, and telling or asking them to do that is downright silly.

[@atrs]

I don’t know if you will see this but I suggest making a glass box around the mill and make a opening door/ window near the pistons where you can weld the trees in, this will stop trees falling out and you could still see the mill

[@robertclaussen6743]

I have a suggestion: Connect a large chest to your fuel tank, either directly or with tubes. That way you have increased fuel capacity and don't need to get out as often to refuel.

[@gdlifesteal5824]

Moonbo: I don’t want to use glitches. Also moonbo: I don’t know if this is a glitch or not but I’ll use it. Me: it’s a glitch that u can weld the bottoms of trees.

[@Moonbo]

You have confirmed that it's a glitch?

[@JakeSimmer]

I was thinking the same thing ;-) but we all play the game how we want so its ok... ;-)

[@hunterdawson420]

I love the entire idea of this so cool,my only issue is if you get the stump doesn't that stop the tree from growing back

[@hisune_39]

I think a good rule to see what is intended to be picked up/welded would be if you can't place it on the lift, you shouldn't weld it.

[@Midrealm_DM]

I appreciate that you don't use glitches . I feel the same way.

[@renovategamer]

would a redwood complete tree float on its own? just wondering if you could use it as flotation.

[@robertcampbell7997]

That would be cool!!

[@mobilevadr6857]

What's really funny is that Moonbo used wood to make the lumbermill in order to chop up more wood. So he's using wood to kill wood. Oh the irony.

[@OscarzProductions]

I think it would be cool to make some sort of magazine or queue for this. That way you could just retract the pistons, have a new log roll in, then push it foward again.

[@EPE77U]

I love the way you play survival. You make the creations look so amazing.

[@MrRomanHumphrey]

Now all you have to do is find a way you can store loose logs that autofeed using sensors and rotary feeders into the sawmill to process :)

[@Ameritude]

I respect the no glitch philosophy, Keep scrapping

[@Acecool]

You could add an Exclusive OR gate and put the piston switch to that.. then a sensor which acts as a switch to it too.. then the sensor on top of the pusher and detect a color at the end... so when it has reached the end - it retracts automatically. Also, I would've added it to the truck just so you don't have to go back and forth... ie: a split cab design so the tree can fall right into the bed. Then the chomping bit in the back, a lift gate at the front which rotates up then pushes back into the blades. Also a bearing drive double supported to avoid glitching and free fuel.

[@Acecool]

Also, not showing the final after the refineries are done is meh.

[@pinknoodle8093]

"This tree almost crushed this poor little farmbot" Pulls out rifle "But failed, and that is something I won't do"

[@Davouro]

You could also add a craft bot that is on loop at the back end, and make it craft the actual tier 1 wood

[@Anzatnt]

I play the game with a special rule: I don't use chests except for automation. When I travel, I cannot have items on me (except blocks, I'm not insane). It changes everything, and it's pretty fun. I did this because every items in this game have a model, and it makes organizing my stuff all the better.

[@dakotaquinn1513]

You should eventually make the mill wider (maybe 16 blocks?)and weld the trees to the wall thing in the truck and have the wall thing be connected to the truck via one block you can then maybe weld the wall thing with all the trees on the wide mill and process them all at once

[@broganjohnston750]

[@TheTyeum]

Mill looks great... Maybe have it on a variable height so you just need to reverse into it... saves you from using the pusher and unloading.

[@josea.ruizquinones9262]

Imagine a vertical cutter on a vehicle. Cut the base, weld to the underside of a tall platform, let it loose to fall into a verticle chute directly to sawblades at the bottom...

[@KaiTheRailwayGuy]

Hey moonbo, why not add like magazine to the lumber mill, so after the piston retracts another log just drops in to place? Then you just unload all the logs at once and refine them one after the other

[@bluefrostt1]
