I think it's a shame that what used to be a interesting challenge now has a built in solution in a single block. You could probably build a multifloor elevator within an hour or two of spawning into the world now with bubble columns. Elevators like this are still somewhat cheap (definitely still takes some resource gathering though), but are nice creative solutions and applications of game mechanics.
Nifty, cheap and fast! Personally, I like elevators that have a realistic, enclosed car that you stand inside of. I'm also a sucker for multi-floor logic, it takes me back to seeing CubeHamster's elevators for the first time!
@@Wertyhappy27 the comment above and also the skull isn't a part of the build, so you can use it again for other things. You just need it temporarily for to build the elevator
I love clever designs like this! I probably wouldn't build it in survival only because I'm not a fan of flashing images when playing, but I definitely prefer redstone solutions to simple bubblevators when it comes to aesthetics.
2:27 I would build the right-click minecart elevator thing. Easy to build and fast. It isn't automatic, but holding right click for 2-4 seconds isn't much of a hassle.
My favorites to build are flying machine elevators. They are incredibly slow but I like that I can make them any size I want. I will definitely use this design somewhere though just to have it lol.
Nice that you made an old design work, but piston slimeblock minecart elevators are still superior to me. Can achieve a faster speed, and not have any passive lag. Also they're arguably easier to build since one doesn't have to deal with putting in the furnace carts.
@@Amodh1257 Are you saying that slimeblock minecart elevators don't work for people with high ping? Cause that's completely untrue, once a player is in a minecart, its postition is calculated serverside, so it will work 100% as long as it was built correctly. Mb you played on some modded servers that changed that.
@@jamiekazemier3652 I'm not :( My point is that I have had a poor experience with them despite being in vanilla. stop pretending to know everything better lmao
Non-mob entities such as minecarts or boats don't despawn the way that passive and hostile mobs do, simply because if you walked away from your car in real life, and then came back around 5-15 minutes later and it had ceased to exist, that wouldn't make much sense. The only way for a non-mob entity to be despawned is for the player to have hit it, or for a kill command to be used. If you're running a server however, that's a different story for using software such as paper.
tbh, even without elytra / bubble columns, i still prefer the old fashioned hold right-click to enter minecarts upwards elevator. Super simple to build, and it feels even faster than bubble-vators. The only downside is you cant hands free travel, but honestly holding down right-click is not a big deal imo.
With the upcoming changes for minecarts in 1.19. this will also server as an convinient way of transporting a large amount of Items with chest minecarts
@@badentertainment1047 no no, I mean mine carts, as you can know break the variants with out having to recraft them. while the items stored inside plop out.
So this is nearly twice as fast as a bubble column, right? And it’s one wide! (Technically speaking a bubble column is one wide but nearly always you have to surround it with blocks
I would build the design with pistons placed in a zig zag pattern that are pushed under you and then push you up in a fast manner but it doesn't work anymore in 1.18 i tested it, you kinda fall through the pistons most of the time
Nope, this is completely different; this elevator exploits the way that minecarts like to bounce off each other, and how they snap onto rails. I'm assuming you're talking about sand falling onto boats, so yea that isn't the same mechanic.
Ah, so it basically uses the main feature of furnace minecarts, along with the powered rails that pushes the main minecart up a bit to "teleport" to other slopes!. Now I get it :o What a nice idea!
cant you in theory just put a dropper with the minecart at the top leading into either powdered snow or cobweb (to make the item fall straight) with a hopper at the bottom?
Furnace minecarts can't be pushed by other minecarts, so if you use normal minecarts, they get moved out of place by the player minecart, and at that point your elevator is broken xd
@@Purplers Hey this might be a really random question, can you use furnace minecarts in entity cramming farms in place of regular ones, because the noise of them moving back and fourth drives me nuts?
Back then, you didn't have to move the minecart as far away to stop it snapping onto the rail, you could align it with a glass pane instead of wither skulls and stairs

would have to get very lucky for that wither skull
@@Wertyhappy27 maybe it's possible to use other, cheaper non full block to align minecarts, maybe fence would work
But this is still super useful in the nether whereas bubble columns don’t work at all there.
but those redstone ones are far more beautiful and fun to watch
I don't know for certain the speed of bubble elevators, but I highly doubt it's 20m/s

cheap - uses wither skull, noted

Excellent tutorial, fun if a bit harrowing survival build.
Sancarn had some really cool videos
Just what I was looking for my minecart system!
An oldy, but a goody 😊
Well presented too! 😊
😊😊😊😊😊😊
i like encased elevators, usually that involve flying machines
I love how it's ”even less laggy,” but has a minecart on every Y level.
The original had a Minecart on every Y level, but it had active redstone too, so my design is indeed less laggy xd
Wow, so thats the video i was looking for so many times, I knew i had seen it, but was never able to find it. brings back mems.
If you're on 1.20.2+ you can use decorated pots instead of droppers by the way.
Awesome tutorial. Well done :)
Very nice elevator! I think the only problem is that the entities you use in this elevator might despawn.
Non-mob entities such as minecarts or boats don't despawn the way that passive and hostile mobs do, simply because if you walked away from your car in real life, and then came back around 5-15 minutes later and it had ceased to exist, that wouldn't make much sense.

Feels like a flight instruction vid on the start of the flight :)
Even though this elevator is faster and smaller, I would still always use the good old piston elevator
wait 2014 was EIGHT YEARS AGO!?!??!
*GET ME OUT IM NOT SUPPOSED TO BE THIS OLD*
who remembers cubehamsters 14 floor elevator
from the redstone handbook?
@@alegitnolifeyeah, from the original one

Step 1 : make a elevator
Stop making me feel old :)
So this is nearly twice as fast as a bubble column, right? And it’s one wide! (Technically speaking a bubble column is one wide but nearly always you have to surround it with blocks
oh the flashbacks, I miss Sancarn
I remember making the water ladder in the Xbox 360.
Not an elevator, but a lot more fun to climb than a ladder.
Plot twist: he actually made a working tv in Minecraft to see the video
I was glad I met PixieBlox, he actually helped me make a 4x4 Door and some else! The Synergy Server is fantastic
Before I even watch the video. May i present. *THE DOOR TOWER*
Ladders 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥
Wait you were in my team in Sipover's event. My brain was lost when I recognized your name and had no idea from where ahah
Dam this is sick
Could you make an elevator like this, but for riding down?
Perfect elevator to travel to the neither roof
all my homies like water up fall down
amazing that he used furnace minecarts lol
I subbed loved ur content
I would build the design with pistons placed in a zig zag pattern that are pushed under you and then push you up in a fast manner but it doesn't work anymore in 1.18 i tested it, you kinda fall through the pistons most of the time
Heya, does this use the same mechanics as the "0-tick boat circuit", since those minecarts seem to be the reason why you can travel that fast?
Nope, this is completely different; this elevator exploits the way that minecarts like to bounce off each other, and how they snap onto rails.
I'm assuming you're talking about sand falling onto boats, so yea that isn't the same mechanic.
Ah, so it basically uses the main feature of furnace minecarts, along with the powered rails that pushes the main minecart up a bit to "teleport" to other slopes!. Now I get it :o
What a nice idea!
I love it
This is great for people who want to use red stone but find it too complex, how hard can it be to make a one wide elevator with a picture even.
cant you in theory just put a dropper with the minecart at the top leading into either powdered snow or cobweb (to make the item fall straight) with a hopper at the bottom?
breaks all the rails when i press the button
I made a video about a elevator with this elevator design
good video
I'ma do some bedrock Redstone now maybe a 2×2 trapdoor
Cool
Why furnace minecarts? Is their hitbox different from normal minecarts?
Furnace minecarts can't be pushed by other minecarts, so if you use normal minecarts, they get moved out of place by the player minecart, and at that point your elevator is broken xd

Its just a matter of time until steveee steals this too
flying machine elevator
So, I have a legit question. Does this work on bedrock cause this looks sick
Would be interesting if you could make it multiple floor
Can you make a video that explains how it works?
I can see myself buiding it in the nether to go from my nether hub to the nether wilderness.
"basically no lag"
could you modernise the zipper elevator?
I prefer a ladder
Dus it go down
I wanted a elevator video
Does a tnt elevator count?
But can it go back down
I should see this earlier
Just run
Imagine if u made it 0.125 blocks wide
You could also just get a bunch of minecarts placed on top of each other and spam click
Can i please use this design in my build?
L A D D E R
I would build a realistic multi floor elevator
What broke the elevator? I didn't play back in 1.8
Back then, you didn't have to move the minecart as far away to stop it snapping onto the rail, you could align it with a glass pane instead of wither skulls and stairs
I would build this design in mc even though elytra and bubble culloms do exist, cuz its faster
I would build it, or at least try to recreate it
I would build a ladder
I’m not redstone smart, so I’m not sure with new elevator
I would try this elevator because it's faster To elevate, not to make but I want that speed I need it, you could say I have a _need for speed_
Does this work in bedrock
Idk if I'm getting this wrong, but why can't I join the synergy server?
The server had a drive failure recently, apparently it'll be another week before it's back up :/
u cloud just drop the item on the air and the smaller version would be cheaper
yo so we're like the same age lmao
How can I join synergy

Love that voice. 🥵
i've seen a cooler elevator from a turkey sandwich
I would but I suck a redstone I wana get better though
