Gantry Tap

Gantry Tap

You built a gantry. You built a beautiful gantry. Encased chain drive, the whole bit. And then you stood there and thought the thought every Create player eventually thinks: “what if I could just… take some of that for myself.”

Now you can.

The Gantry Tap mounts to any face of a gantry shaft and siphons rotation straight off the network. No carriage. No movement. No contraption. Just a stationary little freeloader that meshes its pinions against your gantry and quietly draws SU like it pays rent.

Pairs beautifully with andesite alloy, existential dread, and a kinetic network you swore would be “simple this time.”

Features

• Taps rotation from any face of a gantry shaft — top, bottom, sides, your choice, your consequences
• Outputs through a shaft socket on the opposite face, ready for the next 40 cogwheels
• Animated pinions and output shaft, synced to the gantry’s actual speed (yes, it respects rotation direction, no your build won’t explode)
• Correct orientation on all six faces (this took the dev several years off their lifespan)
• Doesn’t move, doesn’t haul, doesn’t overstress your network any more than it already is — that’s on you

Requirements

• NeoForge 1.21.1
• Create 6.0.10+
• Flywheel 1.0.6+
• At least one gantry you’ve emotionally moved on from

Stress not included.
