Dr. Can Do stands in his shop. Stuff and cubes are all over the ground. 'This mess is extreme,' he yells. 'No inventing. I must sort this shop!'
He packs his stuff in big chests. He stacks and stacks all morning. At noon the job is complete. He can see the ground, and he grins. Then he peeks in a chest.
The chest is full. Stone cubes and dark rock, piles and piles. 'I will never use all these cubes,' he tells the shop. 'These must go.'
Dr. Can Do rides his cart deep under the ground to a hot pit. Fumes rise up from the pit. It is so hot. 'I will not commute to this pit week after week!' he yells. Then he has a plan.
Back in his shop, he looks at the redstone on the ground. 'I will make a rig to dump stuff in the pit for me,' he yells. 'The plan will include a chest and redstone. It will be safe and grand.'
He makes his rig fast. Redstone lines run on the ground, click, click. He sets thick black cubes on top, so the hot pit is shut. The cubes are as hard as concrete.
The shop is grand and empty. The rig hums a soft tune in the corner. The job is complete. He grins a wide grin. 'I am so smart,' he tells the shop.
But in just a week, the shop is a mess. Redstone dust is on all the stuff. A hen clucks under a pile. Dr. Can Do looks glum. 'No, not this mess!' he yells. 'I conclude that I need help,' he tells the hen.
