Thanks. Yeah, stamping out the Xycraft blocks will work, I think. Clearing the water will be interesting. Wood, or leaves, plus flint and steel should do the trick.

Working underwater should be... interesting. A scuba helmet plus compressed air should help, I think.

This is my off camera world. I get enough material for a week of vids in, like 5 hours of Minecraft. Since I play about double or triple that in a week, I have a world I am working on in my slack time.

Well, worlds. Last one I restarted because of a misplaced nuke. It was supposed to drop straight down to help hollow out an underground space. Not so much, actually.
