08/04/2023 Finally got the Minecraft String Machine working! After rebuilding the machine 3 times, I finally got it working. Click Click Click. Beautiful! Okay, what I found out is that it has to face a certain direction. In the image, we are facing North. So the strings shoot out toward the South side of the machine. I had previously tried Strings shooting out toward the West, but no go. Then I tried the string coming out toward the North. Nope. Finally! Strings come out toward the South! Yea! Steppin' on the Beach! You can see my clay farm to the right.
