About

My goal this server was to build a scale LEGO House. Initially, I wanted to build it out of concrete, but given the scale, I quickly realized a renewable solution was necessary, so I turned to wool. My main base, then, was entirely about creating a sheep farm to generate the necessary wool. With that in mind, I set out to find a location I liked. Not too far out from spawn, I discovered an impressive natural cliff over a river in a giant tree taiga biome. Given the setting, I felt a cabin was the best choice, and set about putting in something that looked quite nice. I decided to lean into the naturally available resources, and build extensively with spruce. I then decided to use weathered copper as a primary roofing material. The first floor contained storage and crafting and the second floor was the bedroom and enchanting. Beneath the cabin was a bulk item storage, a wither killing room, a nether portal, and a dark secret...

History

After getting the cabin built, I worked to put in my sheep farm, as well as an automatic collection system for it. I put in 6 floors of 16 sheep each, as I originally intended to use all Minecraft colors in the LEGO house build.

As I needed more materials, I added buildings and farms. First was an iron farm, which I built into a water-tower-esque design across the river.

Next was a boathouse for launching exploration expeditions, as well as a small farm and storage hut for food as well as a cow farm.

After a while, I got a bit sick of eating baked potatoes and decided to put in a pumpkin pie farm. I built them in a set of smaller cabins near the iron farm tower.

At this point, I was getting bored waiting for enough wool to generate for the LEGO house, and started looking for new projects. First, I installed a village in the area behind my cabin. I decided to go for a bit of a Norse theme, using historical records of Norse villages for building inspiration. Additionally, I made a stave church-inspired build in the center of the village, housing all of my librarians.

Eventually, I acquired an elytra, and needed gunpowder for rockets. So, I installed what I call the Crying Creeper, a gunpowder-crying giant creeper statue that held a small creeper farm. Additionally, I added three small sugarcane farms for paper generation.

For reasons I can no longer recall, I also decided to add a melon farm in a large tower.

Lastly, I decided to start on my other large build on the server - the Diamond Cathedral.
