Furnace

[fetsorn]

Please check out the design for an automatic furnace. 10x9x6. I built this to produce supplies for the theatre.

From left to right: the fuel chest takes coal, the materials chest takes what you want to cook, and the output chest gives you the product. Overflow from each input and output is stored in the corresponding chest array.

Can be scaled by extending each row by one block. I do not use sorting tubes to save time setting them up, but they could allow you to make one input chest instead of two. I do not use luacontrollers so that people without the mesemaker privilege can build this on Your Land.

Thanks to Jeija for mesecons, thanks to VanessaE for pipeworks. Thanks to Palige for moremesecons.

The previous design, 8x13x6.

From left to right: the lever toggles the machine, the fuel chests takes coal, the materials chest takes what you want to cook, and the output chest gives you the product. Overflow from each input and output is stored in the corresponding chest array.

Can be scaled if you duplicate the six furnace handle at the bottom. Probably can also reduce the number of chests to two, if you add a sorting tube for an input which sorts the coal as fuel, and the rest as materials.
