    Not sure if this is the right place to post this but i didn't know where else to ask.

    How do i get my first automated sieve setup?
    I've not watched any videos and the guide on here doesn't really help much.
    I have an autocrafter turning cobble into compressed and then i can manually decompose it, but i get hardly anything good and it takes a lot of power just to autocraft the cobble.

    the main constraint on my progress is getting iron at this point, and it doesn't seem very clear how i should go about automating the sifting process when gravel needs to be made with chemicals, and getting obsidian is a pain it also takes ages.

    this modpack is not as straight forward as AS or CL.

    I use minechem. I decompose obsidian and then make gravel. I use gravel in sieves.
    The setup i use is fully automatic.

    Yeah i guess my question is, how do you automate it.
    i've not played much with minechem, and i've certainly never automated it, well apart from the decomposer as that is easy to pipe into.

    The setup that Azure, and I are currently using is a cobble generator that then turns the cobble into gravel via a crusher and sag mill. The auto sieves then sieves the gravel and sand, the ores goes into a golden chest and then are automatically hammered/crafted in ores. It's very efficient and can be done compactly. :3
