So you have to travel hundreds of blocks everytime you want it to be activated otherwise you're getting nothing. And sonce you would have no fortune 3 when using pistons... you do all that time wasting for about 50 to 70% Less reward. So yeah. Manual labor all the way on this one

Did you know, you can dispense a water bucket directly above a cauldron and it will fill the cauldron, you can then retract the water with the dispenser and the cauldron stays full so you can fill another bucket instantly, just fill bottles with it or use it to wash dye off banners! I have this setup in a corner of a build with buttons on the walls each side to prevent the water flowing everywhere.

[@BobbyisYoda]

I've got an extra use for the dripstone: When placed in a 1x1 waterlogged block on the ground and walked over, the player doesn't fall into the water and can keep walking (similar to a lily pad except there's a slight drop instead of a slight raise in the player's level). This can be used if the player is on fire and walks over it which puts the fire out. If you're cave mining or can think of any other use for this knowledge then go for it I say.

There is One more farm you could do, maybe in a future episode talk about it, which is a potion renewing farm. If you take a potion and put it in a cauldron below a drip zone block with a water source above it will automatically fill the cauldron up with that potion over and over again. I have a farm for fire resistance potions using cauldrons and drip stone.

[@beanface7408]

Pointed dripstone can be used to make mob farms, the main example I can think of is on Hermitcraft 8, they made a machine to kill the wither in seconds, and many of them have beacons because of that machine.

[@raymondashleyjohnson1227]

On minecraft ps4 I made water drip stone in cauldron, but had potion in I got from witch, it fills up with whatever potion is in cauldron, works great to get lots of potions

[@freddierenoiz]

I think that new thing of cauldrons filling with dripping water can be also useful if you have some sort of potion set up far from your watter source. I hate that I can only fill three glass bottles with one bucket of watter. So, instead of going to the river always you need liquid or bringing buckets of watter, you can just put a renewable source with cauldrons :D Never worry about going out or bringing watter in.

[@richardeldridgesr.9919]

You could use the redstone signal coming out of a cauldron to set up a light up meter that could be seen from farther away so you don't have to stay there waiting for it to fill up.

to be honest i did build an automatic dripstone farm yesterday using the concept he outlined with the combination of a modified auto sugarcane farm and yes it is slow and i am am able to harvest dripstone.
