Minecraft Redditor showcases a huge redstone contraption simply to store diamonds

Diamonds in Minecraft are arguably the most craved and beloved item ever. As soon as new players enter the world for the first time, their first major objective is to mine for hours and get their first diamonds. People have also made some crazy contraptions and builds surrounding the precious item and showcased them to the rest of the community.

Recently, a Redditor named 'u/Funkuchen' posted a video where they showcased their complicated redstone contraption simply for storing these precious items. They make a hopper chest contraption with a soul sand elevator, which makes the items jump before getting stored.

The player flew to a building where they threw their diamonds and showed where the items jumped and touched a chandelier made of diamond blocks and end rods. Later, they came out of the storing building to showcase a huge redstone lamp contraption that displays how many items are actively stored. A combination of redstone lamps switched on and off, displaying the amount in numbers.
