Schematic by Yiguzhu, published on CreateMod.com. This page lists what it contains; download the file from the creator’s page.



Iron block farm specifications:
Size: 6 Length by 8 Width by 6 Height.
It can be tiled laterally with itself, reducing width to 6 for all copies other than right-most.
Production: 1745 Iron Ingots/193 Blocks hourly rate (auto compacts to blocks).
Consumption (at 256 RPM): 33,280 SU (ONLY INPUT IT REQUIRES).
Uses 2 Brass Funnels and no further brass blocks.
Requires external storage for output.
Uses mechanical drill internally for cobblestone (no contraption block breaking).
Only base Create 6.0 required.


Instructions for activation of farm in video.


Required extra items: Water, 2 Buckets of Lava, a handful of blocks to block liquid flow (any), one trapdoor or other non-full block to put between fan and Soulsand (to block water flow without obstructing item drop-off).


Tiling:
This farm can be tiled laterally. When doing so make sure to align them in such a way that the lava needed on the right side of the first machine lines up with the lava needed on the left side of the second. You can remove the compacting and fans set on some of your machines since they have a higher throughput than the rest of the machine, but you need at least one such set every 3 tiles.


Rotating:
The schematic can be rotated 180° without issues.
To rotate 90° you also need to mirror the schematic and substitute the gearbox behind the fan with a normal shaft (or it will blow in wrong direction).


Description:
I call this "Best compact iron farm" because I saw the current most downloaded iron farm on the site "NEW BEST Iron Farm 1440 ingots/h!" which
1. Doesn't use its 2 Crushing Wheels fully because its cobblestone gen doesn't make enough.
2. Uses contraption based cobblestone gen with I generally find laggy and less reliable (plus don't like the look of).
3. Has too many floating bits and unnecessary brass components, which would look weird when tiled as is.
So I took it upon myself to share a schematic I believe would better fit the as "Best standard create iron farm".
It has a higher production rate (1745/h>1440/h).
Directly compacts to blocks to be stored and uncompacted as needed, plus the compacting setup is external enough where the user may easily remove or modify them as desired.
No speed control nor threshold switch because I believe a threshold switch or manual clutch is better applied to the user's discretion and the machine speed should as default be at whichever RPM the user's base is at.
Its 20 cobblestone drills make just enough cobblestone to use the 2 sets of Crushing Wheels fully.
It is slightly less compact, and less SU efficient than the original schematic, which can be attributed to the fact it uses drills.
