Build a water belt that carries items 40 blocks into baggage claim.
The Lab Airport opens tomorrow and the suitcases have nowhere to go. Build a belt that runs without power.
- New skill Water item conveyors and hoppers
- Level 6 · Inventor's Lab
- Difficulty Intermediate
- Mode Creative
- Time 30–45 min
- Ages 13+
What you’ll build
Dig a long trench and let flowing water carry items all the way to baggage claim, with no power needed. Step the trench down where the water runs out, catch the bags in a hopper and chest, and add a lamp that lights when they arrive.
Finish line: Your water belt carries items into baggage claim, and an arrival lamp lights when they get there.
Bonus challenge: Build a second check-in belt that merges into the first, like two desks feeding one carousel. Do any bags get stuck where they meet?
You’ll need
- Water buckets
- Hopper and chest
- Comparator
- Redstone lamp
- Ice
- Items to send
You choose
- My airport's name
- My floor under the water: stone or
- My bet for a 40-block ride: ___ seconds
Stuck?
- Items stopping? Water only flows about 7 blocks on flat ground, so step the trench down a block there.
- Place the water source against a wall at the start so it flows only one way.
- Lamp won't light? The comparator must face out of the chest towards the lamp.
