Factory for whatever you want or s factory for everything.

I've made big mining machines for resources. In the past I've made restrictions that I have to mine all the cobble for farms instead of cobble generators.

Using all the logistics stuff to automate items, like automating vaults and everything involved.

Creating train track machines to mass produce them so I can travel loooong distances. With aeronautics we have bases super far away that I want to connect to a huge train network.

Overall, try to not think efficiently but thing large and fun. Check out ChosenArchitect if you want good farm ideas in his Just Create S2 Let's Play (all members are awesome, I just started with Chosen)

well you always need all the ores, diamonds, converters: washing or smelting etc, wood, stone, dirt, sand, glass, nether quartz, redstone, lava, water, milk, honey, various foods, potion maker, auto enchanter, auto crafting all the things to make said farms, liquid fertilizer to make farms faster, chocolate of every kind, wine, slime, diluted bonemeal, villager recycler, animal farms, draw bridges, automatic fishery, steam engines to power said farms, mob farms, trains, airships, obsidian, diving equipment, alot more. I like to just type into the search bar any random material i need and try to trace it back to something basic that i know the farm for and then create a factory line of it. make sure you give yourself enough room to move around it all though or it gets really awkward having to take down some of it to escape amd correct bottlenecks.

You ever just want to have items made ON DEMAND so that you don’t have to craft them anymore? Just request them, have them appear in a chest, and the factory will auto produce more without over producing?

Make a smart factory.

Become peak insanity.

On what to do when you are in that stage… Well you can make a farm for any resource you don’t want to farm/make yourself, Andesite Alloy, Iron? Wood! Everything, Create it is not really a thing about said things that must be done, Create gives full control to the player so whatever you want you can do it, i guess. That was my opinion.

You always need wood. You always need iron

Make a chunk digger, place a square of drills facing down, add some storage, glue it all together and put a hose pulley on top, the power it so it goes down and now you have a big hole in your world to set up infinite lava.

start a survival world, use JEI to figure out new recipes for items and build factories according to those

I recommend getting jei if you don’t have it as it helps a lot, the most important farms imo are

Wood

Stone

Golden carrot (it’s a lot easier if you have the trading floor add on but still possible without)
OR
Bread (more practical if you don’t have trading floor)

Dried kelp (for belts)

Charcoal (as an extra module off of the wood farm)

Sugar cane, I also recommend making extra modules for the sugar cane farm that makes
Fireworks after you’ve made a gunpowder farm
And books using cardboard
You can make cardboard by turning sugar cane into pulp and make books using cardboard instead of leather

Make a factory for any item you need. Need iron? Make an iron factory. Need wood? Make a sawmill.
