It's been awhile since I did a Minecraft update - mostly due to the Steam Sale. I was playing some Dead Space and my son was playing Battlefront II. We also messed around a little bit with Terraria.
I finally got around to making our wheat/sugar cane farms semi-automatic with piston harvesters. I didn't take any screenshots because I re-used the same designs from something I did earlier in this thread.
We made a Cocoa Bean farm, which is something new in the snapshots. We based it almost purely on this one by Monkeyfarm because it is super-low on resources. We made ours indoors.
We also spent a good amount of time leveling out some land around our home, which we plan on making into a mob spawner. We're not quite sure how we want to do this yet, but we do need to make it into a big dark room by adding a roof and walls, and figure out the water delivery system and the kill system.
My son has also expressed some interest in making another home for himself fairly far away from what we have set up now and link them with portals. It's hard for a dad to see his offspring leave the nest
