PLEASE, give me some ideas or thoughts on future inventions/contraptions, I'm not that full of ideas :P. ALSO, should any video not be informative enough, TELL ME in the comments, I will happily revisit the invention/contraption, and further explain to help people understand!

In this new series, I, Starsnipe, will be doing, hopefully, lots of redstone related stuff in minecraft. I plan on progressively having more complex videos, but just to start off a bit small so I myself may become readjusted to redstone, and hopefully make something pretty complex when i deem myself ready, and deem my subscribers ready (when we hit a certain amount of subs :P). The format will most likely be either one or two "inventions" a video so as to make sure it won't take 2 hours to render, and 5 hours to upload. I will most likely not invent on camera, but show it off, how it works, and maybe even build a "barebones" version for further demonstrative purposes. 

In today's episode, I show off one very basic trapped chest contraption involving TNT, and another slightly more advanced lava pitfall trap. The pitfall trap is a symmetrical contraption with a set of pistons on each side that are normally extended, while a set of retracted pistons mask the door that will close once the chest is opened. It's explained/shown a bit better in the video, so just do us all a favor and watch it :3. Now, to figure out some hopper/minecart contraptions, along with some more advanced chest contraptions (Or maybe both?).
