10/16 FTB Unleashed - repairs & desert run

Looks like I lost my Pulverizer, 2 stirling engines (screw those things if they're going to explode), a furnace, and in my 3rd gold chest was gobs of ingots, coal coke, machine frames, spare chests, and the 4 stacks of sand for my induction furnace.  Oh well, all replacable.  Luckily the blast didn't reach my new worktables 5 blocks further, and I moved the best items to the personal safe in my IC2 lab, and I had my mining turtle (which used to be in that chest) with me.  For now I cheated myself 2 clockwork engines while I try to block out time & space to start making biomass.

Dartcraft guy promises his force engine won't explode, and it can handle oil and fuel -- yeah at half its fuel value in a combustion engine, minus the danger.  I made 2 iron chest, 2 gold chests, replaced the blown-out chest.

Desert run: 100 sand, 45 saltpeter, 2 blaze powder, some cactus to plant near home.  It looks like you can't pick up oil from an oil flow by r-clicking with an empty cell anymore??  Okay, it does work with an empty CAN, I grabbed 16+13 lava and 16+9 oil.

Repaired the lab, new pipes, new pulverizer.  Made batches of bronze, then sturdy casings, then a fermenter and a still, adding those recipes to one worktable.  Connected the basement of sawmill to rest of the basements, its tunnel ended running right at the end of the town chasm.  I will probably be setting up the fermenter + still for biomass & ethanol production down there, with some stacks of glass tanks for now.

Oreberry count: 4 Sn, 14 Cu, 47 Al.  Harvested first 14 cactus; fastest way to harvest them is to drop sand or dirt blocks up against them, all neighboring cacti will break.  Poof poof, replant some, done.

One quick mining run before bed.  Dug down randomly across from my Nether Portal, found: 2 iron oreberry bushlings, 16 diamonds, 12 lapis, 5 force gems, 1 quartz, 2 U, 1 Amber, 3 emeralds,  64+28 coal, ores: 43 Fe, 6 Cu, 19 Au, 7 Ag, 6 Al, 7 Pb.

None of that session would have made a good video.  Funny how that works.
