Auto Sort and Craft Add-On to Iron Farms

by RazingAces

This add-on is a must for your iron farms. This mechanism leverages the copper golem's functionality to automatically separate your iron farm drops, which are then crafted into either red dye or iron blocks. This farm also comes with overflow protection, so you won't have to worry about occasionally doing a purge to prevent the farm from breaking and lowering output. 

This schematic has been colour-coded for simplicity, with the red side being the redstone for the red dye side of the farm, and the white side the same for iron blocks. The purple and blue sections are both overflow protections for each side of the farm, with the orange section being the disposal chamber. 

*This farm utilises both lecterns and precise item amounts. The red and white path lecterns contain books that are 30 pages long and set to page 19. The purple and blue lecterns contain books that are 30 pages long and set to page 7.

*Ensure the chests atop both the red and white paths each contain 2 stacks of corresponding iron ingots and poppies. If the farm is running properly, the chest will drain and leave behind a stack and 59 items each, with the two hoppers below the chests each stuck containing one item each. That is normal.

*Remember to configure the auto crafter on the red path to leave only one spot available. This ensures the crafter functions properly.
