How do you make a bubble column in bedrock?

Answered by Randy McIntyre

Making a bubble column in Bedrock is actually quite simple. All you need is either Soul Sand or Magma Blocks and some water. Let me walk you through the process step by step.

Step 1: Gather the materials
First, you need to gather the necessary materials. You will need either Soul Sand or Magma Blocks, which can be found in the Nether. If you don’t have them already, you’ll need to head to the Nether and collect them. Remember to bring some tools and armor for your safety.

Step 2: Find or create a water source
Next, you’ll need to find or create a water source for your bubble column. It can be a small pool or a large body of water, depending on your preference. If you don’t have a water source nearby, you can easily create one by placing water buckets or using a water bucket on a block.

Step 3: Place the Soul Sand or Magma Block
Now that you have your materials and water source ready, it’s time to create the bubble column. If you want an upwards bubble column, place the Soul Sand or Magma Block at the bottom of the water source. If you want a downwards bubble column, place it above the water source. You can stack multiple blocks to create a taller column if desired.

Step 4: Observe the bubble column
Once you’ve placed the Soul Sand or Magma Block, you can observe the bubble column in action. If you placed Soul Sand, it will create an upwards bubble column, pushing entities and items towards the surface. On the other hand, if you placed a Magma Block, it will create a downwards bubble column, pulling entities and items towards the bottom.

Step 5: Customize the bubble column (optional)
If you want to customize your bubble column further, you can add additional blocks or redstone devices. For example, you can add glass blocks around the column to create a visual effect or use redstone contraptions to control the flow of bubbles. The possibilities are endless, and you can get creative with your design.

I remember one time when I was playing Minecraft Bedrock edition, I decided to create a bubble column in my underwater base. I used Soul Sand to create an upwards bubble column that would transport me quickly to the surface whenever I needed to breathe. It was not only functional but also added a nice touch to my base’s aesthetics.

Creating a bubble column in Bedrock is as simple as placing Soul Sand or Magma Blocks in water. Whether you want an upwards or downwards column, you can easily customize it to suit your needs. So go ahead, experiment, and have fun with your bubble columns in Minecraft Bedrock edition!
