I noticed the Cache from Thermal Expansion today, had managed to miss them so far. Really nice barrel replacements that might not have all the bells and whistles possible with JABBA, but also not anywhere near the same click-fest to craft and upgrade.

The third tier can hold 160,000 items and is crafted with (in total) one log and four each of tin, invar and hardened glass. First tier holds 10,000 and is a log and four tin ingots. Extremely good for early game tree farm buffers, etc. Works with ME storage buses.

Yup, and them showing a bar as indicator rather than numbers is a nice touch as well.

You forgot to mention you can move them full of contents with a wrench. Easier than JABBA dolly by far.

I discovered that advanced generators is a pretty powerfull mod.
I have one for steam running on lava with 2 heat ex-changers making more then enough steam + obidian and I use the steam in a steam generator with 2 turbines generating a total of 120 rf per tick and it can also output eu.

Today I discovered that Twilight Forest magic tree saplings are OreDict'ed as saplings. Which means they have the same EMC value as regular saplings...

Does EE3 have a blacklist for pulling items out of the table? I know that ore can't be, but that's hard coded on the word "ore" in the item name. Sounds like the Tree of Time, Sorting Tree, etc. should all be blacklisted. EE3 is young.

Seeing as it's OreDict, does that mean one could potentially use a MFR Unifier or Mariculture Dictionary to make more of them?

Probably not useful to have those in the oredict anyway, who would use rare magical saplings in a recipe rather than mundane ones?

The ore dictionary can't be as simple as that. I'm fairly sure that I can't put a Thaumcraft gold coin in a barrel, top it up with gold nuggets, then pull stacks of coins out. There is a dictionary entry called something like AllVeggies, and Pam's Harvestcraft vegetables are registered as being members of that dictionary entry, but that doesn't mean that I can convert zucchini into sweetcorn in a barrel or a unifier.
1. Put magic sapling in JABBA barrel.
2. Right click barrel holding a stack of boring vanilla oak saplings.
3. Whistle innocently.
You can't use that to convert spruce saplings to oak, so why should you be able to do it with TF trees?

Not sure if it's a bug, but I used a TC pick ( cobalt head, paper rod and x with smelting and luck 3 ) on Chimerite and it gave me sunstone.
