Eiffel Tower
Just the Eiffel tower. It's my second base and my first mega base on the server. I will probably use it for a while until I start my scifi base with QuesiBoy. | X | Y | Z | | ----- | ----- | ----- | | 238 | 64 | 238 | No portal yet - BuildingBruteHelped with flattening the mountain:

Build Process
I looked up half the internet and realized, there was no good schematic of the Eiffel tower that was true to the real proportions and also looked decent. So I decided to build one from scratch. I started with a picture of the Eiffel Tower and calculated the proportions. Because I wanted to keep the Eiffel tower between sea level and world height, I needed to convert the dimensions accordingly. Below are the notes I created to do that:
I built the tower in Creative. Above is also a picture of an early outline.
After finishing the build in Creative, I needed to find a spot in the Survival world to build it. I chose a spot not too far from Spawn.
Since I designed the tower for sea-level to build-heigh, I needed to flatten out the area. That took way longer than I expected. I mined more than 70k stone and 50k grass blocks for that. But it was even more than that because thankfully a lot of people helped me on the way! Eventually, the flattening of the hill, I made some custom terrain and expanded the area a bit into the water to make space.
After the terraforming was done, I started gathering the ressources. Since nobody had a working jungle wood farm, the jungle wood (16 double chests) had to be mined by hand. A lot of people helped me with that (see above). It was very grindy but also a lot of fun.
Below is a picture of the terraforming process and the materials.
After all the terraforming was done and all the materials were gathered, we started building the thing. Philipp helped building and Zulugerste did most of the wood stripping.
