Sup everyone. I'm new to this Redstone stuff and Minecraft in general, so really any help would be appreciated. I had this idea to make a fireplace that would pop out of the ground and then light itself up. I would like any information on how to make the "block swapper" portion of the build possible. I attached a picture of one of my simpler attempts. The blue wool is a t flip flop circuit, and the yellow and orange just goes to the top and bottom pistons. Thanks in advanced

First, I'd recommend you use flint and steel in dispensers instead. Second, a plethora of block swapper tutorials exist, but I'm not sure how tileable they are... in any case, it's hard to make a single circuit that will do both, as with one button press, the log pistons must be activated first, and with a following button press, the log pistons must be retracted second. Personally, I would make two different circuits on either side. Not only would a button press intend to swap the blocks, but it would also swap the circuit that would be used next. Also, use your T flip flop or just an observer so that the pistons require just a single pulse.
Just have an extra block sticking out in front of the fireplace, it's much simpler. Or make the inlet two deep so as to obscure it.
(either a one block piston gate, or that + pushing the fireplace forward a block (assuming this doesn't break it and you don't need this to be reusable).

SOLVED: NOT TOO SURE HOW IT WORKS BUT IT DOES 1.17.1
