Q & A
What is the main theme of Tango's project in the Hermitcraft series?
-The main theme is the creation of a completely automatic, self-sustaining factory based on supply and demand, with a focus on being fun, interesting, and visually appealing.
Why is Tango nervous about starting the factory project?
-Tango is nervous because he has spent a significant amount of time planning and prototyping, and he is unsure if his ideas will work out as intended.
What does Tango mean by 'Redstone permit'?
-The 'Redstone permit' is a term used in the Hermitcraft series to refer to a set of resources or items that a player has access to, in this case, related to Redstone components.

-The stipulations are that Wells Knight gets to take whatever he wants from the Redstone shop for free and receives half the profits from the Redstone shop.
How does Tango plan to automate the storage and crafting process in the factory?
-Tango plans to use a system where chests labeled with products will automatically fill up based on demand, and items will be crafted and moved around using conveyor belts and Redstone mechanisms.
What is the purpose of the custom conveyor belts Tango is creating?
-The custom conveyor belts are designed to hide the water stream and provide a more visually appealing and slower movement of items, allowing for better alignment and interaction with the crafting modules.
The three main sources are the manual center with shulker boxes of resources, the underground factory area with various farms, and previously crafted items that are part of the crafting chain.

🎬 Starting the Factory Adventure
Tango is extremely nervous about starting a big project - a factory. He has spent days planning and prototyping ideas. Despite his anxiety, he decides to begin the project, knowing that adjustments will be made along the way. Tango also discusses a visit from Wells Knight, who offers him a Redstone permit in exchange for future profits and free access to the Redstone shop.
📐 Planning the Factory Layout
Tango outlines his plans for the factory, which will be a fully automated, self-sustaining system based on supply and demand. He explains the importance of the order of supplies in the assembly line and the three main sources of craftable resources: manual center, underground factory, and previously crafted items. Tango also discusses the storage room and the need to balance aesthetics with functionality.
🏗️ Building Critique and Collaboration
Tango seeks building advice from BDubs, asking for hard criticism on his build. They discuss various aspects of the build, such as lighting, the use of vines, and the placement of blocks. BDubs provides suggestions for improvement, and they brainstorm ideas to enhance the overall look and feel of the build.
🔄 Rethinking the Conveyor Belt System
Tango is not satisfied with the water stream conveyor belt and decides to create a custom conveyor belt system to hide the water and improve the visual appeal. He experiments with different materials and discusses the challenges of adding custom models to the game. Tango also shares his vision for the factory's background, including gears, cogs, and spinning elements to indicate when items are being crafted.
🛠️ Crafting Modules and Redstone Integration
Tango details the different types of crafting modules he plans to implement in the factory, depending on the number of items needed for crafting. He explains the features of the first crafting module, including remote signaling for resource requests, systems to control resource intake, and safety measures to prevent over-crafting. Tango emphasizes the importance of the factory being fun, interesting, and visually appealing.
🏖️ Upcoming Family Vacation
Tango informs his audience that he will be going on a family vacation, which may result in a temporary slowdown in video production. He promises to try to release one more video before leaving and to dive back into the factory project upon his return.
