Schematics

Three machines that drain

Every one of these is a real .litematic file, decoded block by block and rendered below. Rotate them, step through the layers, then download and paste.

Linear drainer

built by ozum4ik · 2×2×10 · 14 blocks

The smallest working drainer here — 14 blocks. Build this one first to learn the mechanism

2×2×10 · 14 blocks
  • 8Slime block
  • 2Glass
  • 2Sticky piston
  • 2Observer

Diagonal drainer

built by ozum4ik · 6×4×18 · 40 blocks

Sweeps at 45 degrees, clearing more surface per pass than a straight run. The advanced option

6×4×18 · 40 blocks
  • 23Slime block
  • 8Sticky piston
  • 6Observer
  • 2Stone brick wall
  • 1Oak slab
  • 1Boatoptional

Multi-layer drainer

built by ozum4ik · 16×9×25 · 257 blocks

Clears several layers per traversal instead of one. The heavy machine — 257 blocks

16×9×25 · 257 blocks
  • 181Slime block
  • 38Observer
  • 38Sticky piston

Using them

These are .litematic files, so you need Litematica on Fabric. Drop them in .minecraft/schematics, load one, and paste.

Water bugs on paste. Every schematic in this family has the same problem: water does not survive the round trip. Paste the structure, then re-place the source blocks by hand.

Finding more

Searching drain on schematic sites returns nothing useful. This is the vocabulary that actually works:

  • ocean clearing flying machine
  • ocean remover
  • water removal machine
  • ocean drainer

The other reliable route is YouTube: find a tutorial for the machine and check the description. That is where these schematics get linked, far more often than the schematic sites' own search surfaces them.
