Crafting AE2 Storage Cells with Create Machines

Preparing Your Workspace

Before crafting storage cells, ensure you have the necessary Create infrastructure. You'll need access to mechanical crafters, assembly tables, or other Create fabrication blocks depending on which storage cell you're making. Gather the base materials: typically quartz, certus quartz, or nether quartz components, along with redstone and other modular ingredients.

Following the Create Energistics Recipe

Look up your desired storage cell in the recipe book. The custom recipe will show you the exact sequence of Create blocks needed and the order ingredients must be processed. Unlike standard crafting, Create recipes often require items to move through multiple stations. Set up your Create contraption to match this flow—use mechanical arms, belts, or chutes to transport items between crafting stages.

Optimizing Production

Once your first cell is complete, consider automating the process. Create's rotational power system allows you to run multiple crafting stations simultaneously. Chain your mechanical crafters together and use filters to ensure ingredients reach the correct stations in the right order.
