Yeah, that's not so good. Likewise, I wouldn't use it for any molten metals or liquified Mekanism gases, but depending on if I get get enough throughput, it might make my planned AE2 autocrafting setup with carpenters a bit less messy hopefully!
What cool little thing have you discovered today?

Today I learned what a mattock is. 
That's interesting, but I'm not sure that's an exploit. You can combine tools (and tools with gems) and make new ones, and each time you make a new one, it can be of different rarities. I combined two obsidian swords and made a new one that's pretty beastly.

No no no, it was like a different item. It had pink stuff and like a gold handle.Today I learned what a mattock is.

Too Much Free Time
Saw this in the console log;
[20:05:37] [Client thread/INFO] [FML]: If your Log stops here, you were too impatient. Wait a bit more next time, before killing Minecraft with the Task Manager.
[20:07:18] [Client thread/INFO] [FML]: Congratulations, you have been waiting long enough. Have a Cake.

That made me laugh the first time I saw it too. I forget what does it. Gregtech?
I realized that you can use the same water pool to make fluix crystals and pure certus/fluix crystals
Bad morning, NC? That's two posts of yours I've seen this morning exhibiting a bit of snark.
Once you do AE2 a couple times, you learn to start making your fluix crystals literally days before you actually need them. I have a few stacks of them in my ATM world, and I won't be doing AE2 for weeks probably
Didn't you see Direwolf20s vid? You can dup them with the Pure Fluix seeds.Once you do AE2 a couple times, you learn to start making your fluix crystals literally days before you actually need them. I have a few stacks of them in my ATM world, and I won't be doing AE2 for weeks probably
I didn't see his vid, but you need crystals in the first place if you want to dupe them, and they take (literally) days to grow.
My point is simply that you can easily get ahead of the game by making the crystals before you need them. And the nice thing about growing them this way is that you can grow as many as you want for "free" (dust + sand).
One thing I found was that you can't grind up the pure crystals (nether and certus at least) for dust - not in the version of AE2 I'm playing anyway (1.7.10). Is that no longer the case now?
I feel like I've seen grindable pure crystals in some packs but it might have been MT recipes.
Most of them you can convert into blocks, and then back into a grindable form to get around this small problem. Just takes 8 pure to make a block that normally takes 4.
This is true, but then it becomes break-even - take 4 fluix crystals, grind them up to 4 dust, combine with sand to get 8 fluix seeds, grow to 8 pure fluix crystals, combine to make a block, and craft back into 4 fluix crystals again - there is no net gain there.
