Classic design. If you double it up, you can put the fuel chests in the front rather than to the side for more space efficiency

That is in fact, *the* auto smelter

put the chest on the front so its easier to expand

You spelled fuel wrong so I’ll give it a 2/10.

what kinda “feul” are you using?

Only thing I would change is the bottom. you can place the output-chest right of the hopper and point that hopper into the chest instead of just down.
You can also input from the back, allowing you to put a double-chest on top of the furnace for more items.

Aside from many of the other great suggestions, recommend making a lava farm and using lava as fuel.

It’s functional, but not aesthetic. Also, if you want to make it one block shorter, you can put the output chest in front of that bottom most hopper and break and place the hopper pointing into the chest

Does it work to put buckets of lava in the fuel chest?

That is. Definelty. An autosmelter

.. there is no top left chest
But other than that, cool.

Nice. You can use a row of hoppers to deliver a fuel to a row of smelters too.
I have a sorting system that smelts automatically and puts the output of the smelting into the same sorting chest the ingots go into!
It automatically redirects coal and charcoal to the fuel input, and it automatically makes charcoal for any wood I have of a given type if I have over one chest of logs of that type.
And my next job is to swap the furnaces for blast furnaces and smokers so they go faster 🙂

Pretty good you can put a mirrored version of it on the left and if you want alot then put the fuel input at the back and can make tons of these side by side

Same that I do. And the furnace doubles as an xp bank

could be much better, needs a little sprinkle of the screenshot button

I don’t know why, but seeing someone proudly show off a classic they figured out themselves fills me with a great amount of joy.

In a world of Hermitcraft/SMP ultra redstone contraptions, it’s easy to forget this simple form of an auto smelter is indicative of the exact way millions of players enjoy Minecraft.
It doesn’t need to be fancy if it does the job.

thats not how you spell fuel

What did you put in the feul chest? Chracaol?

Looks good.
I personally trim mine down to just be the top and bottom hoppers and the furnace instead of having chests on all sides. Then I can have a whole row of hopper furnaces/smelters/smokers all cleanly sorted beside each other.
It’s usually unlikely that I’m smelting a wide enough variety of items at once that I need more than the 5 slots in the hopper by default. And fuel lasts long enough that I can just stick a stack in the furnace and not think about it for a while.

The OG. classic, simple, functional. What’s not to like?
I personally like to link a few of these bad boys up with a chest cart, so it’ll go through smelting at a faster rate, but this one is the basis for any super smelter out there.

Looks great! If you want to expand it, check out this vid! https://youtu.be/_u6Ik7KEc2g
