The Temple of Tutancreepun

With the walls and floor completed all that was left to do was touch up the pillars and prepare to say goodbye to daylight

Sprung a leak

it would appear that i started my construction alongside an underground spring.

not really a big issue as im now lining the walls with a sturdier and more grief proof substance

Phase 1 Complete. Phase Two begins

after about 4 hours work Ive successfully removed the 15 layers

Phase two is the detailing of the Temple itself, however during construction i encountered a potentially fatal Flaw, my plans had the proportions set out for a 40x14 hole when i had in fact dug a 40x15 hole throwing out the proportions of the designs

after a few minor alterations I was back on schedule albeit slightly displeased with the changes.

So it begins...

I've decided to begin construction on a large Minecraft project.
to begin i have to dig out the lower chamber

The lower chamber will have dimensions of 40 meters long by 15 meters wide and a depth of 15 blocks

about 3 layers down i realized my inventory was full and had to climb out of the pit and dump it nearby

stopped for now after an hours work and 8 layers removed.
