The POWER of Concrete Powder (it's a fun block)

I have been obsessing over concrete powder because it's just so much fun to fling it. Especially at people. And especially the brown powder.

[@kalebkjohnston5960]

Making connect 4 is really fun. You climb up a ladder to place a concrete powder when it's your turn, and then when someone wins, you press a button to drop it onto slabs. You could improve this, of course. You could make a piston-slime launcher to launch the concrete powder to the top.

[@TheInfamousMelon7]

thats cool

[@sukunasgaylover]

One of my friends had their birthday one year, but we lived a few hours away, so I couldn't get them anything. Instead, I made a Connect 4 game using redstone, and I also traveled ~ 4,000 blocks to get some Dark Oak saplings (we hadn't been able to find some ANYWHERE near home). Simpler times, man.

Minecraft really needs to add Muffled Pistons. Maybe crafted with a piston and wool?

[@TyphoonBeam]

Escape - Options - Music and Sounds - Blocks 0%

[@laserfoxpro]

@@TyphoonBeamyeah until you need to tell your friends to do it because your build has more than 2 pistons

[@TyphoonBeam]

@@laserfoxpro Yeah that's part of the reason I've been learning zero tick redstone lately. So I can do everything at once to minimise the total time the pistons are moving for.

[@gferrol118]

I use vanilla tweaks for that. Reduces the sound by 95%
And you can reduce a load of other loud sounds, like dispensers, minecarts, rain, and even specific mobs!

[@Idoexist._.]

​@@TyphoonBeamdoesnt rhe Wool, like, muffle the sound? You just need to build with wool and cover empty spaces, wo la la, you can hear sound!

this

[@naviwolffe]

This actually really brings out the beauty and different techniques you can use with concrete powder.

[@MrFiveHimself]

Gotta say, the clock is clever. It could definitely be optimized though. Personally, i would have used a piston feedtape worm to hold more complex designs giving your clock more than 8 different positions. An example of a good piston feedtape worm that works in this context would be squibbles letter display. All you would need to do is swap out his letters for clock symbols, replace the manual selection with a timer, and some extra tweaks to get the size right. 👍

[@_gerg]

The clock was actually somewhat inspired by squibbles video. Your idea might be possible but it would be huge surely taking up the whole tower. Also there is an etho clock hocked up, it just has a manual trigger for demonstration

[@BerzklTheDragon]

@@_gerg I just shat my pants 🗿

[@olivers.7821]

As a gen z kid I love when I show people analog clocks because they’re all like “if it doesn’t have number idk what it says” and I always laugh because I’m like the only only in my entire school who can actually read them properly and fast enough to tell anyone else the current time while most of the other students just use there phones

I am starting to feel like there can be a greg theme park server set in adventure mode.

[@jakubstuchlik3423]

I thought about concrete arcade machine like the ones that u insert a coin that drops and something that is moving is pushing it towards the end you could make it from concrete powder and make different colors represent different prizes. But I never got myself to do it so if you want to take this idea as yours. (Sorry for my English)

[@The_StripeDH]

Idea for a minigame. You use the concrete powder loncher. And have a random anvil in it. Each player can press a button that will make a block move out to stop whatever gravity block that hits it. Your goal is to kill the other player. Each of them will all so have a shovel so the game will go on longer

[@bupstertarvin6468]

[@noayebeardo9688]

I think Squibble made a 3d printer using concrete powder

[@TheEmbrs]

Ik you just did a fan made mini games video, but I actually have a good one me and my friends play that I wanted to share with u.
The name of it is Ice Climbers
So everyone gets in a boat to start. They start on the base of a giant structure that towers up. Like bowman blitz, the map can be made to whatever.
Along the giant structure, most of the floor is made of ice. This is with the exception of rest stops and slime blocks.
Each player will then compete in a one minute competition, of trying to get the highest up. Whether you use a red stone clock like us, or an irl clock doesn’t really matter.
There are slime launchers around the track made to help you go farther up.
There is also rest stops along the track. These are only for the purpose of being a spot players can use to rest, or just stay there for the rest of the game, in order to not risk falling at a harder area.
If there is a tie, we like to have a 1v1 on the track to determine the winner. This step doesn’t really matter, though.
It’s a pretty simple mini game, but definitely a fun one. And a sure chaotic one too.
We occasionally will also throw in a twist, which will help to spice up the game.
The twist is, In order to win, you don’t try and get the highest up, but the second highest up.
Anyways, hope you like my mini game.

never really thought of using it like that..
i should try that out

[@MelSpoon-]

me when concreting thy powder 🤟🤟🤟🔥🔥🔥

[@G1B_]

minigame idea. make a 4 blocks long, 5 blocks wide,and 10 blocks high. every 10 seconds, 5 blocks will rise up. [ concrete powder ] where up to 3 blocks will rise up on the same block. this game is easier when theres no blocks around u. but there is a timer of 120 seconds

[@jpting_]

Does the clock work based on a timer system? Or according to daylight sensors.
I'd fear sleeping in a bed would desync it

[@birdbutnotfurry]

[@MrMoshall]

Greg I don’t know how you built that concrete powder machine that can “juggle balls.” I tried it in my own world and it doesn’t work at all. I literally spent 2 hours trying ways to fix the concrete powders’s destination but it always either goes a block in front of its original destination. Also when it did fall into the right location, the other machine didn’t send it back to the exact location where it’s supposed to go
