Haha yea even better

You harvest a lot of trees and build them by hand

Here's a (regular sized) tree growing guide:

=)

I know at least one person made their world tree (Yggdrasill) by growing trees in concentric rings offset in the Z direction. So a circular, much larger version of this:
Layer 1 (above ground)

[] [] []
[] [] []
[] [] []


Layer 2


[]



Layer 3
[] [] [] [] []
[] []
[] [] []
[] []
[] [] [] [] []

etc.

It must have taken a boatload of patience, because they cleared off all the leaves and made sure that the trees grew pretty large.

That seems like a pretty backwards way of doing it - why not just utilize a controlled tree farm for materials?

I think it was done for the process rather than the outcome. Thread is here (link is to latest update).
