Minecraft – use a steam engine to extract items from chests or automatic crafting tables

minecraft-buildcraftminecraft-java-edition

The BuildCraft wiki is rather light on information, but I need to know: is it possible to use a steam engine to extract items from chests or automatic crafting tables without the engine blowing up? If so, how?

Best Answer

Wooden pipes extract items from chests (and perhaps automatic crafting tables; I haven't tried). Engines can then be attached to the wooden pipe.

I recommend watching the videos on the official YouTube channel to gain a basic, working knowledge of the mod.
