Hidden Pop-up Staircase[]

Vertical Power Transfer via Pistons[]

Basic idea came as a solution to someone's problem for compact vertical power. Proof of Concept on YouTube

Block Detector[]

Device used to check if the block in the 'test zone' is conductive or not.

redstone torch -> redstone wire -> 'test zone' -> repeater

Gravity (Up Only)[]

A stack of gravity-affected blocks on top of a regular piston facing upwards. Very top has a block-detector for output. Best use of gravel I've found yet :P

Quick to activate, but slow to reset. The taller the stack, the more time needed for everything to settle back without 'erasing' blocks.

Gravity Repeater[]

Extends the length past the 12 block limit of a piston.

Solid (Up or Down)[]

A stack of solid blocks. Stack is pushed in direction you want power transferred and is pushed back by the receiving end at a delay.

Quick to turn on and off, but tends to get stuck if set to too short a delay or triggering side stays active too long. Additional bonus is power can be checked midway without need of extra circuitry besides a block detector, just use a non-conducting block in the stack where you check.

Bi-directional Bi-stable[]

Two stacks, need not be in direct parallel, that when one stack is 'on' the other turns 'off'. This will allow it to be activated from either top or bottom.
