By putting 4/9 pieces of redstone together in a crafting table, you get the redstone block! That's all I've thought of. Not really. You know how people always want vertical redstone? Well, this is how! Just add this onto your wall, and a current will go through it (as long as there is a current running). It will go in any direction, except diagonal (so... vertical and horizontal xD) and will make the current last forever as long as you have the redstone blocks leading the trail. If it goes from a redstone block to a redstone dust, the current will travel 20 blocks along the redstone dust.
is how you'd make it.
If you make it like this, however:
it will make a redstone current. You now don't need those annoying redstone torches unless working with redstone! And this way, you can have it trail under blocks without having to dig them out and just have a space there! This is what it would look like:
The current-producing block would look like this:
These will be affected by gravity, so you won't just be able to make a long straight path diagonal path of stairs like you would stone/cobble. These will fall like sand, so be prepared to have more blocks with you!
Very, very similar to other redstone block threads. Now, if you were able to find the original idea, I would suggest you post in that, but at this point, I think a megathread or similar will be needed. Come to think of it, I think there IS a redstone megathread. I'll post a link later. It's not that different, so I will have to say AS. And f.y.i., the reason currents on;y travel 16 blocks is because the game would not let it travel any farther.
EDIT: There is, sadly, no redstone megathread. Maybe I will get someone to make one or something, as I can't host one.
