Tree Farm - Modular Base Collection

Description

Modular Base Collection - Tree Farm.

AKA the Tree Harvester, or the Timbercutter, is back!!
(Original creation of mine 5 years ago: Elykdez's Timbercutter - the Semi-Auto Tree Farm)

Have you been wondering why trees in Minecraft won't taken down after you chop off the roots?
Here is the Minecraftic solution! It was one of my old creations, now reborn and upgraded as an MBC base.

With brand spanking NEW features:
- Destroys all leaves, super efficient design without any loss.
- Farms most types of trees (see the notes below).
- Extremely compact. The core mechanism is only 15x15x15 with all the things around.
- Easy for maintenance and survival friendly.
- Faster speed (5 trees / min) and more stable with improved redstone circuitry.
- Alarming mechanism added to prevent conveyor overflow.
- Much aesthetically pleasing, less redstone exposed.
- Awesome animation.
- And even more...

Version required: 1.14+

How to import (in vanilla MC):
1. Read the instruction about structure block on wiki.
2. Place the nbt file under {MC directory}/saves/{your world}/generated/minecraft/structures/.
3. Open your world and type: /give @a minecraft:structure_block 1.
4. Always 'Include Entities'. If you load more than once, turn it off on consequent loads.
5. Load it into your world, structure name = file name.
6. If anything breaks, load it twice after 10 seconds.
(The cover picture actually shows a broken one. The glass on the left should not be bumped if you load it correctly)
7. Replace the structure block with sandstone and it is done.
8. It is also importable by WorldEdit, or anything supports .nbt files.

How to use:
1. Find the lever in the main chamber.
2. Flip it, plant your favorite tree on the top of the dirt block.
3. Bone-meal the sapling (or wait it grow...) to a tree.
4. Flip the lever again and behold how industrialization wins over nature.
5. Collect all drops. You may repeat the process above once all the sand goes back.
6. When the alarm beeps (about 20 trees approximately planted from empty), chop all wood blocks in the storage area and you may have lots of them.

Caveats:
- This contraption works only on trees without branches. It will fully (100%) work on spruce, jungle and birch; mostly (90%) work on oak and hardly (10%) work on acacia, but after you destroy their branches.
- Again, you have to wait ALL sand goes down to start a new planting.
- If you do not follow the instruction above, the sand pusher will break. Luckily this is easy to fix by refilling all sand with an 'L' shape all the way to the top without a gap (re-pasting works as well, if you feel that lazy~).
- This is not an AFK farm nor the fastest, but really efficient. If you are looking for sheer speed, this one might not tickle your fancy, but I'm sure you'd be impressed by give it a try!
