Here are some ideas for some Elevators.

What is an Elevator?

An elevator is a type of vertical transport system that carries people and goods to certain floors in a structure. They are sometimes known as lifts.

Water Tube Elevator

Note: Do NOT attempt to ride this in Survival Mode because you will die. You have been warned.


Bricks are suitable for making this. You can also use glass to make it really cool!

  1. Build a base 4 blocks wide and 6 blocks tall.
  2. Start to build up to your 2nd Floor.
  3. If you haven' t done so, build 3 blocks up from the 2nd Floor. Then seal the top up.
  4. Smash out a hole on the 1st Floor 3 blocks high and 2 blocks wide. Do the same on the 2nd Floor
  5. Smash out the ceiling and put water in all the corners.
  6. OPTIONAL - mining out blocks from one side of the elevator and replacing them with glass panes or fences allows a player to ride "half-in, half-out" of the water shaft, and allows a player in Survival to breathe.

To ride it, go inside the elevator and hold down space for the whole journey. Once on the 2nd Floor, press w to exit.
