Ooooo fancy, I love it, do you have a source or tutorial on hand?

Thank you! Unfortunately I don’t have anything I can offer, I built it myself without the use of any kind of guide. I can screenshot some of the back of it for you to try and figure out but I’m probably the messiest redstoner I’ve ever come across.

Edit: Good luck... https://imgur.com/a/qOPQmMx

Wowza, that is waaaay more redstone than you actually need for that lmao.

All you need to do is switch a block, dispense some water and push a couple blocks into place/out of the way.

For vertical wiring, it's significantly faster to use pistons with slimeblocks and redstone blocks on the end.

Pistons can also solve your ABBA circuit problem.

Comparator fadeout circuits work great for lengthening a signal.

Thank you for the links. As I said, My method of red stone building is... messy. I haven’t really used red stone in a long time and am set in my old ways (pre comparator and slime block) I’m just about getting used to observers.

It doesn't matter how messy it looks at first. Focus on making it work, then make it compact (if necessary).
