I am confused on how to get Cobble stone from my ME System To my Recycles im in a Remade version so i can see what i need to do and i cant figure it out!! :mad: 2016-01-20_17.51.48.png 2016-01-20_17.51.03.png 2016-01-20_17.50.33.png Here is some screen shots of my Set up
 
Not 100% sure from your setup up but if those are ME Cables running into your recyclers you need something between the cables and the the recyclers to tell the network that that location is an output.

Export bus is probably your best choice though there are some others
 
its hard to describe because i can't see exactly what you've done but the best explanation I can give based on what i can see is that the ME cables don't work like pipes so you can't move stuff into them and have them come out the other end.

Instead they work as a join between 2 places e.g storage and a interface/bus

when you have an a device connected to cable it allows the devices to send and receive from other devices on the same 'network' but items don't exist or flow along the cable so you need to have a devices at the end where you want stuff to come out to request items from the network

If that doesn't help can you please explain some more about how you are trying to use the interface and cables to connect to the recyclers?
 
actually i might have misunderstood that first picture. Is that glass fiber cable above the recyclers?
 
You have two fairly simple options here. One is to divert the cobblestone coming from your tesseract before it even reaches your ME system (I see you already have a diamond pipe there which could be used for precisely that purpose, if the tesseract is fairly close to the recyclers); or you could just send everything into the ME system and pull out the cobblestone afterwards.

Should you opt for the latter option (which seems sensible, seeing as you've already got several thousand cobblestone stored), there are a few ways to go about it. The simplest would be to put an ME Export Bus (basic is fine, or precision if the basic one isn't fast enough) on each of your recyclers, configure all of them to export cobblestone, and connect them to your network.

Alternatively, you could place one ME Interface somewhere up near your recyclers, configure it to stock a bunch of cobblestone, and use pipes from another mod to get it into the recyclers. Protip: Buildcraft diamond pipes can act like insertion pipes. If you run a line of diamond pipes across the top of your recyclers, and configure each one to direct cobblestone downward and leave all the other slots blank, anything that comes through the pipe will go into the recycler if it will fit, or into the next pipe if it won't. You could put another ME Interface at the other end to catch any overflow.

Finally, a bit off topic, are those combustion engines you're using to pull scrap out of the recyclers? You won't need nearly that kind of power unless you've got a ridiculous number of overclocker upgrades. If they're each producing less than one scrap per second, redstone engines will suffice.

actually i might have misunderstood that first picture. Is that glass fiber cable above the recyclers?
I think the recyclers are the ones on top. The machines in the bottom row look like Mass Fabricators, and the cable is an IC2 power cable.
