Readers will find a step-by-step tutorial from the most general, basic concepts of Redstone, such as how to use the right tools to mine the greatest amount of it, all the way through to actual project completion on the beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels. This manual includes a comprehensive breakdown of each and every Redstone-related item and how it works, as well as a guide to wiring and engineering that's so precise, those who use it will have a basic working knowledge of actual, real-life electrical wiring. Also included are samples from the best Redstone engineers and a gallery of creations to inspire you in your Redstone builds"--Publisher's description.
