Chanelle Granlund Posted April 26, 2021 Report Share Posted April 26, 2021 How do I place elbow chutes sideways? I have a mill powered from below with four hoppers with and chests below them. I would like to connect the output to one chest. But if I can’t connect them with the elbow then I can’t go around corners. Do I have to use the 3way chute? But it costs an extra ingot I also want to send the output from my pulverizer to the top of the floor instead of having to go underneath the building Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Use Archimedes screw to transport items from bottom to top Edited April 26, 2021 by Craluminum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorVanGogh Posted April 27, 2021 Report Share Posted April 27, 2021 Yep, gotta use 3 way elbows for those corners. Here's a great video on how to build a fully automated quern - even shows the angles you need to use when placing down the chute pieces. As for transporting things up: Archimedes Screws with ports on the top & bottom and a powered axle going thru. Note that you need to stick a block (or axle) on the top end of your screw shaft for items to go out the side. Otherwise they just bubble out at the top.

Chanelle Granlund Posted April 30, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 I still had big trouble placing the chutes. Especially the 3-way ones. They wouldn’t cooperate. Top facing down or only a certain way no matter what direction I tried to place it from. I managed to place some and had to build my system accommodating them. is this a bug? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
