Playing with the latest snapshot of MC, I made this nice device:
![]()
This uses the new hoppers to send in smeltables to a furnace as well as keep it fueled. Basically, this will transport items from a furnace in bulk to a chest somewhere else. A comparator is used to call a minecart chest to the furnace if the hopper (below chest) gets a bit over 20 items inside and fills it. Once the hopper is empty, another comparator detects the empty hopper and sends the cart back. Once the cart returns to the chest, a hopper under the tracks dumps the items into the chest.
Yes, this is vanilla :3 This can be expanded so that the chest will collect items from a series of furnaces. I do think that the hoppers are overpriced as they don't transport up and they don't sort (5 iron + 1 chest makes 1 hopper).
