How to make a cobblestone generator

Creating a cobblestone generator is a popular project in Minecraft, and it’s quite simple to build.

Here’s a basic guide on how to make one:

Materials Needed:

• 1 Bucket of Water
• 1 Bucket of Lava
• Building Blocks (e.g., Stone or Dirt)
• Optional: Additional tools like a Pickaxe

Steps to Build a Basic Cobblestone Generator:

Dig a Trench:

• Dig a trench that is 5 blocks long and 1 block wide.

Create the Water Flow:

• At one end of the trench, dig one block deeper (so there are two blocks deep at this end).
• Place water in this end of the trench. The water will flow towards the other end.

Create the Lava Flow:

• At the opposite end of the trench, place a block one level above the base of the trench (this block will be a temporary block).
• Dig a hole next to this block so that the lava will flow towards the water.
• Place the lava on top of the block you set.

Finish the Setup:

• The lava and water should meet in the middle of the trench, where cobblestone will form.

Collect the Cobblestone:

• Use a pickaxe to mine the cobblestone that appears where the lava and water meet.

Tips:

• Safety First: Make sure to build your generator away from flammable materials or structures, as the lava can cause fires.
• Efficient Mining: To mine cobblestone quickly, use a pickaxe with the “Efficiency” enchantment if you have access to it.

That’s it! With this setup, you can generate an infinite amount of cobblestone as long as you have a pickaxe to mine it.
