How it works

The Bridge Master lays a level deck across a gap. Wake it, and the rune reshapes into a U of redstone, opening toward the outer torch. The rune reshapes into a waiting U. Each block placed at its heart spans the gap, 3 wide.

Place blocks at the heart of the U. Each block is carried out to the open end of the deck, level with the rune's base. Each block spends one charge. The bridge extends (31 charges left).

The deck's width is one plus twice the Tier, from 3 blocks at Tier 1 to 15 at Tier 7, and it can run up to 64 blocks out.

Good to know

• The deck keeps each block as you placed it, facing and all, so slabs and stairs make neat edges.
• It stays cold inside a Danger Ward.
