SORTING MACHINE UPGRADE

The video on this page describes an overflow problem with the sorting machine. I may have found a fix:

Put a space between each of the sorting hoppers. You can upgrade your double chests so they face forward this way. You can also put a feedback loop along the top in case any of the hoppers overflow and start clogging up the system. I have only tried this in 1.5.2 --65.74.70.63 23:14, 22 May 2013 (UTC)Habib_Ackbar

How about this? It won't clog up while you don't need to put any spaces between units. I'm very proud of this design. Tested only on MCPE 0.14.0 but I believe it works on any editions. --Depressed pho (talk) 17:28, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
I
O
Layout for one cell. The item channel runs through "I", and the output (usually a double chest) is at "O". The hopper right below "I" contains the 22 items, and the hopper right below the redstone torch contains 1 item.
