Here are a few ideas centered around redstone, forgive me if they've been suggested before.
Advanced furnace. =lever =advanced furbace
Looks like a standard with a lever and three icons on the side. =high heat, used for some new recipies, but can turn other things into charcoal. =normal heat, functions like a normal furnace =low heat, used in some new recipies, may turn other tings into goo(dirt)
cooking pork chop:
high heat: creates jerkey, cooks fast, heals only 2 hearts but stacks 4
normal heat: cooked pork chop
low heat: creates pork roast, cooks twice as long but heals 50% more hearts
redstone+gold=redalloy wire spool, has 8 times the carrying range of redstone dust, appears as an orange line on the ground, needs a redstone contact to interact with other redstone stuff.
redalloy wire spool+stick=redstone contact
redstone+lightstone=powerlight, has a light level of 13, turned on and off by redstone circuits, only melts snow in its square, modle is the same as a torch but with a yellow head
redstone +lightstone+dye= colored powerlight, has light the same color as it's dye and a light level of 12.
red powerlight+green powerlight+blue poer light=super white power light, has a light level of 15 but a slower falloff rate, at level 15-11 ranges are 3 squares, at level 10-7 ranges are 2 squares, at levels 6-4 ranges are 1 square. The light itself is a small cube about half the size of a normal cube.
redstone+coal= fuel, used to power the advanced furnace, or lasts twice as long in a normal furnace
redstone+ sulfur=propelent, havn't quite figured how this would work but I'm sure the cannon crowd can.
redstone+netherrak=firestone, bursts into flame when powered by a redstone circuit.
redstone+soulsand=Variable Density stone(VD stone), acts similar to normal soulsand, but hardeneds like stone when powered by a redstone circuit. Anything standing in the VD stone is trapped there, only able to free itself with a pickaxe. It can also be walked on like regular stone. Looks similar to soulsand in a spawner cage, lines glow red hen stone is powered.
Hardened VD stone:When VD stone is cooked at high tempurature in the advanced furnace it becomes hardened. It is about half as hard as obsidian, and acts similarly, untill powered by a redstone circuit. It then becomes pourous and allows lava/water to flow through, but can be walked on. Reverses the color pallet on soulsand, with the same "caged" look and effect.
paper+sulfur=fuse, can set off explosives without having to hit it and run away.
