If you don't mind asking, why don't you want to go to the end yet? Don't want to deal with the dragon? Or don't want to go searching for the stronghold?
If it's the former, the easier answer, imo, would be to go to the end with a turtle, 9-12 stacks of cobble, some torches, a blank linking book, and a link book home.
Plop the turtle down with a simple program. Mine was something like
Code:
for x = 1,64 do
turtle.select(1)
turtle.placeDown()
turtle.turnLeft()
turtle.select(2)
turtle.place()
turtle.turnRight()
turtle.turnRight()
turtle.select(3)
turtle.place()
turtle.turnLeft()
turtle.forward()
end
turtle.turnRight()
turtle.turnRight()
turtle.forward()
turtle.forward()
turtle.forward()
The last little bit was just to bring it back over the safe blocks when I refilled it. Shouldn't take long to get far enough away from the dragon that you can still kill him as a group, or whatever. When you get 180 blocks out or so, just make a long platform, make a standard 2-high ceiling, put water over the top (I put microblocks all the way around the outer edges so they couldn't teleport anywhere), and kill endermen until you're full.
Of course, at that point, the tier 5 spawner is kinda pointless. It's just as easy to setup a handful of attack turtles and glare the endermen to death.
