In case it helps, I'm playing a (heavily modified) Direwolf20 pack. Also along with that, I try to use avoid using flight, at least until I make an Angel Ring, although I'll use it if need be.
I like building skybases in my Singleplayer Survival. Because a floating series of buildings in the sky just looks plain awesome.
In the previous version of DW20, I pillar up used Modular Force Fields to get sort of a template going, and then building out from there.
Unfortunately that mod is gone in 1.7, so I kind of left to come up with another method.
However I feel the way I'm doing it is kind of tedious...
So here's what I do right now:
-I grab as much cobblestone as needed and pillar up at the place I want it.
-Every few blocks or so I place an OpenBlocks elevator adjacent to the pillar, so I can easily get back down.
-Once I'm high enough I begin to bridge out to place landmarks for a Buildcraft Filler.
-After that I set up the Filler with a Tesseract/Dimensional Transceiver that supplies all the stuff it needs.
The part I'm finding the most tedious is setting up the Landmarks for the Filler. Measuring to create the perfect structure is not the easiest thing in the world, because it's pretty hard to make any adjustments if need be, unlike MFFS.
Does anyone know of a better method than what I'm doing now? I feel like, with all these mods, there's just something out there that makes it much easier to do that I just don't know about.
