Description


Rock Crusher The Rock Crusher is a 3x2x2 structure for processing various materials.

The Crusher is built out of 12 special blocks made from a Steel Block, Pistons, and Diamonds. If broken down, it takes 3 Blocks of Steel, 12 Pistons, and 12 Diamonds to build one Rock Crusher. Rock Crushers cannot be built adjacent to each other – there must be at least one tile in between Rock Crushers.

The Crusher can be loaded and unloaded via Loaders or Buildcraft pipes. The entire 3x2x2 structure is treated as a single block, similar to a large chest. It will accept input from the top and will output from any remaining side.

If you have Buildcraft 3.x installed, the Rock Crusher will need to be powered via Buildcraft Pneumatic Power. It will use roughly 15,000 RF of power to process each item. The Crusher has an internal buffer of 16,000 RF.

If you have IndustrialCraft2 installed, the crusher will also be able to crush ores into dust just like a Macerator.

If you do not have IndustrialCraft2 installed, or would like more ores to be crushed, check out the Rock Crusher Addon Mod.

The list of materials that can be processed includes just about any vanilla blocks made from stone or brick. Additionally, you can process Bones and Blaze Rods, but one of the most important products it can produce is Obsidian Dust. Obsidian Dust has a 25% chance of being produced when processing Obsidian in addition to producing Crushed Obsidian. Crushed Obsidian can be further processed directly into Obsidian Dust if you desire, but it also makes an excellent ballast material.

The Rock Crusher can be powered using hobbyist's steam engines.
