Tutorials/Underwater home

An undersea home has certain pros and cons that set it apart from any other bases or homes. Firstly, an underwater home is immune to any explosions, is difficult to access by Mobs, and can provide excellent visual range and protection. However, an undersea fort can be somewhat time-consuming to build, enter, and exit. Follow these directions and you will have an excellent undersea fortress.

Step One

To begin, find a fairly deep spring or lake.

Step Two

Using dirt or glass, construct a 3x3 column from the seafloor to the surface. If desired, add a door and a cover for the entrance. Dig a hole straight down the middle of the column. Be sure to place a ladder, as this will be your entrance.

Step Three

To create a room, go underwater and construct the walls and ceilings of it. Next, enter your fort and fill the room with sand or dirt to dry up the water. If it is still flooded, put a torch on the wall and look for any openings.

Step Four

Repeat step three as many times as desired. Note that the soil on the ground will be very fertile, so make crops if desired.
