Automatic Sheep Shearing Farm (Litematica)

Youtube Video

Description

This is an automatic sheep shearing farm in which you don't have to do anything once it is built! (except to collect the wool from the barrel and restock shears into the dispensers)

There will be additional materials needed for this project other than what is listed in the material list. This is the most compact design that I can come up with. Colored glass and colored wool is for aesthetics only, any block will do. Grass must have a transparent block above it to allow for grass spread. Don't forget to add at least 1 shear to each dispenser!

This design is inspired by Pixlriffs. I have posted his video as a general guide to placing hopper minecarts as well as a general idea of what the design might look like when built into a mountain. I understand that people may not have enough room to terraform like he does, so the design of the schematic is smaller.

Also note that there is a hopper minecart pushed into the grass block that the sheep stands on to allow collection. Therefore, you will need an extra 16 hoppers and 16 minecarts.

You will need the following for assembly:
1 Piston
1 Lever
1 Rail

Please watch Pixlriffs' video attached for a guide on how to push the minecart hopper into place. Skip to 7:27 and stop at about 8:33 if you don't want to watch the whole video.

Material list:

173 White Stained Glass (some of these are colored glass, but you can change them out as you see fit)

16 Minecarts (for the collection system)
16 Observer
16 Redstone Dust
