Title: First night of minecraft and as a recruit! FULL SIZE Giant Redwood tree!
Post by: Pharmboy88 on August 04, 2011, 09:06:31 am

My first night playing minecraft and I was already made a recruit! (for a tree house not pictured)

In the recruit world, I decided to build a full scale redwood tree (to the best of my knowledge).
I pretty much estimated the whole thing. It's about 95m tall.  Took me all night to do it. Hope you like!

Seen from across the map.

How do you know it's length in meters? And the tree looks kinda skinny?

If each block is a meter cubed, then each side of the cube is a meter.  The tree is about 95 blocks tall = 95 meters.  The tree may look skinny from far away because it's so tall relative to its diameter. If you see it in person, you can get a better idea of how massive it is. The diameter at the base is about 8 blocks I think.  If you cut a hole in the base, you could easily fit a car through it.

Nice :) And lLLEGAL, he is right, one block is 1x1x1 meters.

An update:

I filled in the bottom branches a little more. Looks a little better. Also, I made myself a nice cabin getaway house. Has two floors, fire place, deck, skylight, outside water pump....and even an outhouse (well, when you gotta go, you gotta go).
