I have not obtained a single piece of glowstone from a villager.

Whoa, relax. Just kidding.

I am sure you guys have considered this as you have played the game for this long...
What about a production plug in like power craft?

The only thing I wish for really is a mechanism to crush stone into items that you can pick up. And I can't find any in vanilla minecraft.
The mining part to get stone for my castle is taking many man hours and I would like to make a machine that makes ready to go stone.

Ask TC if you can use his cobblestone. He always seems to have a surplus. Far more than you can carry.

Yeah, I've got about 15 chests of cobble. You're welcome to take a large quantity (10+ chests) if you'd like.

I like the various industrial mods, but I'm wary about them because of balance. I try to keep everything in the game very balanced in terms of effort to obtain. I find that balance like that is important to keep everything we build 'impressive.' Some of the production mods eventually get to a point where you might as well be playing in creative mode. That seems like it would cheapen the development that has been done. The only time I've been ok with a system that does stuff like that is the sand generator, and that's just because obtaining sand/sandstone requires strip mining the deserts which looks absolutely hideous and ruins the area. I figure the sand generator is an acceptable sin to avoid the strip mining desert blight.

I've never looked at Power Craft specifically, so I'll take a look at it and see if it looks balanced for the server.

Alternatively, enchant a diamond pickaxe with Efficiency IV and then chug a haste potion. Stone will evaporate in front of you.

Branch mining is fun and often produces a lot of cobblestone, just watch out for lava.

Sigurd if you need a good mining pick you can take one of the Efficiency/Unbreaking ones in my southern village. I also left an Efficiency IV or two at TC's place while I was using his XP farm. I used the anvil to create a pretty powerful composite.

If it is not balanced (not tried it myself, just threw out an example), then so be it. No hard feelings.

I just happen to have one... But I would like it to get unbreakable AND silk touch (sic?) on it.
The 30 exp that I lost in the minecart accident between Arena and the n00b hotel and that you kindly restored to me got me Efficiency IV on the diamond pick axe I brought. (I walked the line, but found only half the gear I brought. There should be a diamond pick axe, diamond sword and a gold helmet somewhere on the line between Arena and n00b hotel. If found - they are mine)

I made a working smooth stone generator on the top of my mountain, so I shouldn't lack for raw materials. If it could only be supplied with a stone crusher...
A diamond pick axe with unbreakable, efficiency and silk touch, would make it an unlimited source of smooth stone for my castle walls.
