Seems a disproportionate amount of my
time as of late has been spent mining. Although seemingly unexcitable, it's influencing how the town is developing.
As of this time I've hit a bit of a
diamond dry spell. My personal preference is to float at least thirty
or forty diamonds in my on hand stock. I find this is a comfortable cushion when preoccupied with a large project or I'm otherwise
distracted from mining. However when recently rebuilding my diamond
reserves I've been finding that I'm essentially breaking even on my
mining trips. Only mining enough diamonds to replace my expenditure
in picks. The upside to this spate of mining is that I have an
abundance of materials on hand and won't have to make frequent trips
to retrieve more.
It also appears I'm flanked on at least
three sides by lava fields. Meaning that to clear it out I'm going to
be building with a fair bit of obsidian in the near future. It should
make for some interesting builds.
With that going on. I've taken a short
break to put together another towny style house.
The idea behind this one was to have an
open concept workshop on the first level and a livable space on the
second.
Where to place the standard crafting
bench, chest, and furnace presented a minor challenge at first.
Eventually I had settled on closing off the back wall and placing the
chest and furnace there. Then to fill out the space a little I stuck
the crafting bench in the middle of the floorspace. A ladder provides access to the second floor.
The second floor provides a simple bed
and a Minecraft style poker table. Of course I had to include some
signature skylights to complete the build.
