Redstone Gadgets Ideas

The Redstone Update will add more ways to work redstone. I have some ways you can build with redstone.

Trapped Chest
Place a Redstone Compartator behind a Trapped Chest with one wire leading to a lever and the other leading to a dispenser filled with arrows. Assuming I am right (since this is based on pre-release I could be wrong), when the lever is on you can open the chest without getting shot by arrows. When the lever is off it should shot arrows through the dispenser. I left this fairly vague so you can arrange it as you will.

Self-Filling Chests
Place a Chest under a Hopper then a Chest above a Hopper. The pattern should be Chest Hopper Chest. The Hopper SHOULD(again this is all based on pre-release) take things from the top chest and put it in the bottom one as things are taken out. All you need to remember is to place all items you want to go into the chest in the top one and take the items from the bottom. This will work best in a situation were only one type of item is in the chests (ex. food, bows, arrows) You can expand this idea depending on resources.
