From the current setup, it wouldn't be all that difficult to finish off the entrance by pulling the fences back one extra block and spitting the stone back out to the top, which would be a good aesthetic. I'm sure most people would prefer that look to the current one, and it wouldn't make it that much larger, either.
thanks for the feedback! That's a great idea. What you're describing would take another tape loop + another vertical bus, which would be a bit of work, but doable. maybe make the horizontal piston a double retractor. It would almost certainly exceed the current footprint though.
Yeah, the method I was thinking of was the dual horizontal piston idea, that way the second bar would be pulled back twice and down, then the stone would be pushed back up, across, and up once more. Even without it, it's still a pretty nice design, but this would certainly blow people away x4
