Slime Trap: Automated Farm with Redstone Item Sorting

A working slime farm with a tall glass-encased spawning shaft feeding down into a wide, symmetric processing floor built for handling the loot at scale.

Layout

• A slender central tower rises above the main structure, housing the slime spawning space along with observers, a sticky piston, and honey blocks that funnel slimes down toward the kill zone.
• Below the tower, the floor spreads into two long mirrored wings, each lined with repeating rows of droppers, hoppers, and target blocks.
• Parallel water channels run the length of both wings, with blue ice underneath to keep items and mobs moving quickly toward collection.

Mechanism

• Each row pairs a dropper and hopper with a target block, using redstone comparators and repeaters to read item counts and route drops through the system without lag-heavy item entities on the ground.
• Crafters are worked into the layout, likely combining or repackaging collected drops as they pass through.
• Redstone torches, wire, and buttons throughout the wings form the control logic that keeps each lane firing in sequence.

Materials and Use

• Built almost entirely from white stained glass, quartz block, and diorite wall, giving the whole structure a clean, pale, faintly clinical look that lets the redstone components read clearly against it.
• Waxed oxidized copper bulbs mark status points along the tower for at-a-glance monitoring.
• Drop this farm at a slime chunk near a swamp or set the tower over an underground slime chunk, then let the sorting wings handle the output automatically while you collect processed slimeballs from the ends of the lines.
