My Minecraft experience: an ongoing thread

If you wish to hear more about my Minecraft base & server, please enable notifications on this post. I'll add comments here for big progress rather than creating a new post every time.

My overall extremely ambitious goal is to dig out a 128 block radius dome around an AFK spot at the bottom of the world to have ultimate control over where mobs do and don't spawn.

This is virtually impossible on my own, so if you wish to help out and share the benefits of all farms and builds taking advantage of this, or if you want to build your own things elsewhere on my server, please let me know.

After excavating some more, I plan to build an ultra smelter. That is not to be confused with a super smelter that spreads items and fuel across a row of furnaces using constantly moving minecarts and collects output through a hopper line as shown in several tutorials.

I want mine to use loaders that fill minecarts completely before sending them off so the carts don't waste time riding across all furnaces empty, and to automatically supply fuel by building a bamboo farm on top. For the collection of the output I also want to use a minecart to collect from more furnaces more quickly. Maybe also a system to dynamically use more or fewer furnace lines based an the number of only items? 🤔
