So the other day I decided to find a stronghold and make it my home. After hours and hours of creeper killing, torch placing, and furnishing, I think I am about 20% done...
I will post my pictures of the work I have done and tell things about them. It's a hard job that might take a few months! Suppot would be nice!

RECENT ACTIVITY:
CrEePeR ChAoS
I went down for a bite to eat at my kitchen, when I noticed it was infested with creepers. After a little battle with them my stairs were blown up so I could not get back up.
I then turned around to see more creepers heading towards me and I quickly baricaded with whatever I could scroll to faster, glass.
Deciding I would deal with this later I tried to climb up of what used to be my stairs, when I fell through a hole into a cave.
After looking around I was hit by an arrow. While heading to kill that skeleton, I noticed he was with a creeper. WHERE ARE ALL THEY COMING FROM?
ABOUT:
Here is the main room with the totem thingy in the middle. This is actually where I dug up to... lucky huh?
Next I have my room, not too far from the main room. Nice triple bed, desk, jukebox, waterfall and more! I'm not too happy about the floor though. It's wool, but it looks childish.
This here is my Dining and Kitchen. Not exactly how I wanted, but it is pretty nice.
Next I have my workshop. Wall of furnaces, chest, workbenches, and lava, just incase.
Finally, this is the library I have been searching for. It just so happens that it was down in the old abandoned and ruined by caves area of the stronghold. It took a good 5 minutes to get to from the main room. And guess what, half of it is cut off by an abandoned mine shaft.
:dry.gif: lucky me!
So there you go. That's what I got so far. I plan on adding a weapon's range. Also, I still haven't explored half of the stronghold yet. It's gonna be quite an adventure. I will continue to post exciting things as I go. What do you guys think? Tell and Support!

LOVE IT! Looks awesome. I've been searching for a stronghold on my map for over a month now. I'm starting to run out of places to look. Are there any obvious ways to tell where they are above land? I've covered 3 of the cardinal directions and am hoping the last one will be my goldmine.

Legit Way: I think theres a dirt pole (not really sure if its dirt, but theres a pole) above land to show where it is. If you find one, make sure to dig underneath it.

Actually, it's a glass pillar, and it only appears in terrain generated in 1.9 Prerelease 3

This is cool can't wait for more pics :smile.gif: It would be cool if you turned this into like a hotel or something, with a house above ground, with a grand staircase leading into the lobby, and then you can get a room and explore the place and have like dispensers powered by a button saying whats in there like cookies or something just scattered around like vending machines :biggrin.gif:
Make a Self destruct button, just incase some stupid zombies enter.
in every roof a piece of tnt and 1 giant tnt room, zombies will never enter your stronghold again, after you pressed that button.
HAHAHAHAHA no. I lol'ed, but there is probably gonna be a zombie or two and I don't want to destroy my home!

That's a good idea. Maybe I could do it with the other stronghold in my world and link them with a minecart track.
