Tech‑to‑the‑Skies #2: String from Leaves, Massive Sieve Setup & My Devastating Fall
2🌌 ✨ Welcome to Tech to the Skies – Episode 2! ✨ 🌌
In this episode, we dive into some core automation early-game strategies using the CurseForge modpack:
🌱 ✨ Learn how to:
🔹 Harvest String from Infested Leaves
🔹 Convert String into Dirt for early building
🔹 Use the hammer on a cobble generator to craft gravel instantly
🔹 Understand the importance of a 5×5 Sieve to dramatically boost material yields
🔹 Set up a fast Dust and Sand production cycle
😱 But things get wild—on run #2, I misjudge my position and plummet into the void, losing ALL my progress! A painful reminder to build smart, especially when pillaring above water.
🎋 On the bright side, we begin a bamboo starter farm and plan to build a hopping planter next time to automate dirt generation.
➡ ️ Stick around—In Episode 3, I’ll:
🌿 Finish the hopping planter for reliable dirt
⚡ Recover from the void loss (🙏 let’s pray I don’t die again!)
📦 Show how the 5×5 sieve starts feeding into full-scale production
