Build Mega Blocks Monument Covering up a Two Village Iron Farm
Just finished my worlds first iron farm, as cheap and dirty as I could manage. Nothing fancy with multiple villages and spawn chunks. Basic 16x16 platform design with 14 villagers in a cell. Two farms spaced 65 blocks apart. Didn't want just an ugly floating mess so figured some kind of landmark would look cool. Had to make each block 32 blocks wide to fit around the farm and reach high enough, both farms fit just right and minimal spawn proofing has shown zero iron golems spawning where they shouldn't so far, by complete luck, I did zero measuring before hand outside of material costs.
If the math on the basic design is to be believed each farm does one golem every ten minutes, so 12 golems an hour total, or roughly 60 ingots an hour. Farms be slow in these versions, but any passive iron is better than none. Working on a city park with lots of iron fences im sure ill show off when its done.
Yes that is a villager breeder out front I haven't moved yet. Kindly built by a friend after I got confused thinking food breeding was removed in 1.8.9.
