Seems like common sense to simply label chests *shrug*

Good gods, man, some of you put so much effort in to your builds!

Here I am using the floor 1x1 panels as a "table" to horizontally "organize" my standard chests. lmao

Nice looking stuff! :)

Edit: I also really love how your Smelter and Kiln are incorporated in to the wall there. Is that very hard to achieve? I've been thinking of doing the same instead of just having them sit outside my base, although I don't particularly mind that.

This entire base is built underground as I dug out all the area underneath Elder's altar, essentially creating a "cave" (BTW this creates a completely indestructible area to live)

As I started placing items inside, It became obvious that I was going to have to find a way to "vent" the smoke from my central fire, by creating a "drop-down" ceiling to leave space for the smoke to go and dissipate over time. (since I couldnt vent it out the top)

This brought up the next "issue" which was that in order to make this "false ceiling", I was going to have to support it somehow. and so crafted wooden walls all around. As I was building the walls I noticed there was a lot of unused space behind those walls, and decided to take advantage of that fact and started to recess my storage chests, etc. Then started hiding my work station(s)-upgrades behind the walls... and then realized that I could also place the kiln and smelters down there BUT, those also make smoke, so I had to recess them to keep the smoke behind the wall... Turns out that walls can clip into the smelters and kiln so I was able to keep the smoke stacks behind the wall, while still being able to access the "loading holes". and this is how it all eventually took shape.... The "perfect" indestructible base underground, with most of the work stations I would need, up through the plains biome, and so became my "permanent" main base.

Essentially the whole build came about, because of trying to troubleshoot the problem of how to vent the smoke LOL.

Recessing the items actually helped in making the relatively small space less cluttered.
