The various intricate mechanics within Minecraft often prove useful to building enthusiasts, and one player constructs a clever redstone contraption which allows them to cycle through multiple sets of armor in one small closet. Redstone has long been an essential aspect of Minecraft, opening up countless possibilities that some fans are still delving into over a decade since the game was officially released.

From the ability to manipulate blocks automatically to the construction of complex circuits, redstone allows for builds that may at first seem impossible in a game such as Minecraft. With building being at the heart of the game's appeal, it's no surprise that many of Minecraft's mechanics revolve around it, and a long list of updates over the years have provided players even more resources with which to bring their imaginative creations to life. Many knowledgeable players have proven time and again how far redstone can go in Minecraft, achieving some truly mind-blowing projects from functional, in-game televisions to the recreation of popular games such as Snake.

Redstone can be used on much simpler levels too, and one creative Minecraft player has invented a sort of automated closet that allows for the rotation of different armor sets. This neat creation was made by a player known as Eagle_1776 on Reddit, and while the exact mechanism behind it isn't fully clear, it uses a series of pistons to displace blocks and move a sort of conveyor belt carrying multiple armor stands, each one equipped with a different set of gear. This makes for a particularly storage-effective yet aesthetic option for storing armor sets, with players now investing more into their armor than ever before with the advent of Minecraft's armor trims.

While Minecraft has long featured armor sets that can be constructed from multiple different materials for varying degrees of strength, the game's latest Trails and Tales update has allowed players to decorate their armor sets in new ways, regardless of what material they're made from. Previously, only leather armor could be customized by dying it different colors, but the newly-added armor trims make it possible to apply a wide range of different patterns to gear.

Armor trims aren't the only new feature added with Minecraft's Trails and Tales update however, with the latest update taking up a particular focus on encouraging self-expression and creativity by adding a bunch of new tools for builders from new blocks to new environments to settle. The update also promotes exploration, featuring new mobs, biomes, pre-generated structures, and even allowing players to dig up archeological treasures from the past.
