I’m a stoner B)

This is great advice for literally any craft in life. Replace "Redstone" with any other skill, profession, or pursuit. You could replace it with "art", "engineering", or "marketing".

I am currently building a redstone cpu, and I can confirm that you are right. The single components (adders, multipliers, magnitude comparing circuits, etc) are very easy on their own but it takes a lot of skill and determination to actually find a good way to put them all together.

This is a great video for beginners at redstone, as someone who started redstone in java for the first time in October of 2022, I can confirm that I have come quite a way (though I will admit, Matt's logical redstone series definitely helped out a ton)

Just as in programming: if you don't know how to do something, google it (and steal from someone). I did it recently with clay converter and borrowed parts from few creators

Oh man, yesterday I was trying to build a 3x2 piston door that allowed me to go down a hole. I tested it out in a creative world and it worked perfectly. But then built it in my survival world block for block and didn't work. That was the first time i learned that some redstone components work differently if it's facing north/south or east/west. I was sooo frustrated to know that I quit the game and felt like I'd never return to redstone. This video motivated me a bunch to get back to it even better than before. Thanks a bunch for the motivation ❤.

I feel this so much man. I'm an engineer that works on actual CPUs which is just IRL redstone. Every bit of knowledge in the field is built on the back of past discoveries. It's even a saying that the industry is fueled by burning deplomas and PhDs. I see so many people on electronics forums and computer engineering subreddits putting themselves or others down for making basic or half-baked projects. The reality is that all of us veterans of the industry were once that undetgrad student making a basic vga driver or motor controller on a breadboard for a class project. It's easy to look at the accomplishments of your field and thunk you'll never get there. But you have to know that the people who did that probably started off the same way. I was once that kid making hacky fpga projects for class, and now I have my name on papers for Intel's EMIB and upcoming Interposer chips. It happens, it just takes a really long time.

I feel like should say that a good place to start is piston doors. It's much harder to start doing farms and computational blind than to start making doors. A 3x3 or 4x4 should be good to start with, mainly focusing on size rather than speed. I think that's when most people quit or decide to continue to try and make bigger and more complicated doors. But, after all, what keeps (at least me) interested in redstone is competition. If you want to start redstone and not quit you should join a server/community and compare yourself to others while trying to improve what they've made. Progress is possible solo but honestly it's so much more fun when you build everything on a server.

As someone who is experimenting with redstone a lot, this looks like a very good advise and I see myself getting better and better

I've started playing minecraft around like 2012. After I got basic understanding of the game, I discovered redstone. A lot of my skill and knowledge has come just from me experimenting with it. Redstone has gotten me interested into electronics and computers, so I started attending electrician school. I've finished this year and I'm now an electrician, only thanks to Minecraft and redstone. I've always loved just doing something random, and then creating a huge project (at least for me) from it. Right now, after watching your video on hoppers and item sorters, I created a key unlock system, where you throw a key with a specific name into a hopper, it gives it back and unlocks it. I now want to add automatic lighting using some RS nor latches.

0:36 I love how he does the British Accent for that part! Btw, im here for your 461st view on this video!

Hey there @jazziiRed ! I saw your Armor Shop vid, and I just wanted to say that your shop design is absolutely fantastic, and I love all the amazing features you've added in the real world. I noticed that only the skeleton is available for download, but I was wondering if there's a chance you could share the entire shop with me? My friends and I have a server, and it would be so cool to build your shop there. Of course, I'll make sure to give credit where it's due and let everyone know where I got the design from. By the way, I already have all the armor trims ready to go, so having the complete download would make me incredibly happy. Thanks a bunch!

“Ready is a myth” is a weirdly motivating phrase that can be applied in a lot of varied ways

That is what I always say, Redstone is like chess

This video gave me the motivation to turn my giant restone calculator into a smaller build. i might not know what im doing, i might not know how to do it, and i might never finish it, but your other videos gave me great ideas like using the jukebox for numbers. i will try using it to first add more actual calculator features then actually do the math. thanks man

I’ve been thinking of documenting my process of learning red stone for a little while now, and I think this is the thing that convinced me! I’m not very interested in video making, but I might set up a blog or something where I can embed screenshots and write out my thoughts. I managed to design a bamboo farm based off of things that I knew worked, but to work with the resources I had in game the other day (I found a grand total of three nether quartz, so I knew I couldn’t do more than three observers), so I’ll probably start there. Thanks for the push to do something!

Just a little extra tip for beginners: if you want to understand how to use a circuit or a part of it on your own creations you gotta try to understand how it works itself (not just "yea a bunch of dust here, some comparators there and boom it magically works" but more a "why does it work? Like comparators can read an inventory through blocks or detect an inventory change somehow??"). At least this is the way I personally learned the most about redstone, just trying to figure out how that circuit might work and why. I hope I'll be useful for somebody learning redstone (or anything in life)...

This video is incredibly beautiful and welcoming, thanks for the message!

I'm not really a dedicated redstoner, i like to play with tech mods, and make contraptions that way. Still i needed a t-flip flop for one of my machines, and instead of looking up how to build one, i figured out a design for myself. And it was genuinely the most fun part of making the machine. Then later on i needed something that would turn 1 redstone pulse into 3 seperate pulses, and that was definitely out of my depth. Redstone is difficult as heck, but i'm still having a ton of fun with the simpler stuff.

I’m not new to redstone. I think I can design impressive contraptions. But I’m working mostly with the same design components. I should really get invested into understanding more ways to do the same thing. I’m actually interested in to making noiseless designs more often. Less pistons and droppers if I can help it.

had a college course on logic gates and I aced that shit because I'd go home and build them all in minecraft for fun

This is not only a message to new redstoners, but a message to anyone new at anything! Embrace the cringe, because only by embracing it will you overcome it.

just want to say your videos inspire me and i really appreciate them !!!

im putting this in the playlist "things i need to hear about a month from now"

this feels vaguely applicable to other skills and hobbies. everyone has to start somewhere!

2:40 the nostalgic sound makes your voice better

I’ve been playing Minecraft since I was little, now I am in 17 and in college but now this video in itself was motivated me to try and learn redstone again, since it was always something that fascinated me. Thank you so much, I’m going to subscribe, and you are a very underrated channel and you deserve many many subscribers

used to be a pretty hardcore redstoner and now I am starting with electronics it's a lot more complicated.

Not me failing to make a simple redstone machanic.

top 10 motivational videos on youtube. (No, seriously, it motivated me to do redstoning)

This seems like just generally good advice, not just redstone. 👍

I was just 2 ½ year on doing redstone and that time I have 0 idea about all components I just know is to know them is to test them how they work,takes lots of time before I got into redstone community so I made all of modules and components all by what I understand about my experiment and it's all in my oldest world (I just slap those red thing in Flor and never have experimentation area) it was a good time,I still remember that I free Minecraft exist for mobile and I was happy and excited,after I made a overcomplicated colored beacon I start wondering about what else the redstone can do and I will tell you it's aloot,just this month I start making PC,yeah I have all knowlage I just a lame person and I have not enough courage to do so,also I want to build with someone I don't care if they will help or contribute I just want someone is willing to listen about my idea and how the thing I building works and that time I will have 100% courage to build thing.also I was able to build small thing infact I made my own "forced growth kelp farm" and some basic door like "glass door" and I also made my own 3x3(I dont post them cus am bad on editing video) just nice that you came out with this world changing words that support learning. And lastly iactually hate block by block tutorial since it fill the those video and for those who is turtle on block placing makes more time and got almost no time explaining how it works and even tell if it's their work.baii

I'm not a redstone master by any means, but I have dabbled a bit, and here's my advice: 1: Two simple projects to get started with: (manual harvest) cobblestone generators and TNT cannons. Both are somewhat simple; and you can either make, or destroy something. Fun! 2: Make it again. If you want a 3x3 piston door, the first one you design is going to be huge. Design another using what you learned from the first. Now build a 3rd; and a 4th; and a 5th... And after a while you'll get one that isn't this size of a house. 3: (Something I've learned recently,) Quazi-Connectivity actually _does_ make sense: Just think of pistons like they're doors. 4: If it needs to be said- build it in creative first. 5: At least for me, if I practice something a lot for a week- (i.e. speedbridging)- and then take a break for two/three weeks, I do better after the break than before?... Humans are weird.

Thank you

The key to a dream come true….JUST DO IT….

the best way learning is just building stuff with it

An amazing bit of advice. Thank you

I did redstone for years and yet clicked video titled dear newbie redstonera... why? but anyways, good advice also got me bit inspired

Love to see another guy that's more than just good at redstone (as I am) saying all these good things to future redstoners

thanks, i think that's what i needed to hear.

Great video!

Hey. I've been trying to learn redstone lately. It is very very very intimidating. There are so many and so little resources out there. But you are right, the feeling when things work as you intend it to. It is the best feeling ever.

I will take this advice to heart especially since I'm very much a newbie and doesn't touch redstone much(I can build tho).

This is actually a good advice for learning anything. At least as a software engineer this applies too well into the software engineering.

follow the damn white rabbit neo

I started redstone arround 3 years from now (but I gave up for 1 year tho) and the last big thing (and only one) that I built was a giant tictactoe. It has a reset system, start/stop button, random beginer and some other stuff. But it is absolutely not the best it could be, exept that I had no idea how to do it. It told me the things you said: it is just a combination of simple things but hard to combine... Just try and you'll do it. PS: I still don't know what i'm doing

While some players would think beating the Ender Dragon is the end, when mastering Redstone is the true endgame, in my eyes anyway.

I first got into Minecraft in 1.2.5 - and played that until 2013-2014 (I think), on an ostensibly free account, before upgrading to a paid one that my mom got for me when 1.6 dropped. This was when her own interest in the game peaked, all because of a simple addition: horses. But of course, I'd been playing it for two-ish years by that point, and what drew my interest had always been Redstone. It was ... a weird substance, to me, and I didn't know how it worked. I could never quite figure out how to get it to do what I wanted to without using a tutorial - still can't. It's been several years since then, but my brain is always tingling, itching to try and figure out some of my most ambitious redstone projects. I don't want to do what I had been doing; I _want_ to make something original. I've tried, and I'm very close to something that I think will work, but I haven't yet figured out how to put it all together. Not yet, at least. But I'm sure it'll come to me, with time, patience, and effort. Like you said, it's an art, to take simple mechanics and make something beautiful with them. Though I suppose a part of the problem is that I'm basically diving into the deep end with my current redstone project: using rails to create a server friendly, lag free slime block trap door. I'll be honest, I could use a little bit of help here; the current design is a 3-cycle system, which means that pressing the button once takes it to the desired state after the default open state, closed, but has a third rather odd in between state where it's not quite open but not quite closed either. I want to eliminate that third state, but idk how.

Redstone is literally just programming, but it's 3 dimensional

just like any skills :>

Can you show us what contraptions are the most usefule when building redstone project. I used to be good at redstone then i started modding.

0:35 he said it in a british accent lol

I wish I was a redstoner, instead, Im just a regular stoner :(

As a stoner I can say it's easy.

I'm a lapis lazulier

Im a Minecraft noob and the only reason why I stick to playing Minecraft is because of the mechanics

good video. also me early

same vid but replace "redstone" by "mathematics" or "python" or "c++"

I have this with building

Could you make a discord?

:D

I feel targeted

I play Bedrock but all the redstone videos are on Java. Does anyone do redstone on Bedrock?

I can say im an ameture/beginner

Im a white stoner

Bro only got onething wrong that he is not a mastet

Redstone is great until you become a tech player and start a project that takes a few hours to design but multiple weeks to fix all the issues and bugs 😂

Me a bedrock player :Nice video but this is kinda pointless
