The "wide" design is really just a standard dwarven reactor thrown all-up-ons a four stage repeater perfected elsewhere.
The "two-step twink" design pattern is a significantly more optimized and compact two stage repeater design, and planned with walkability during and after construction in mind.

walkways shown are sufficient
for construction and later
access to pressure plates
from north or south, all 
without walls outside of
the four-tile width.

turn any hallway in your
fortress into a machine of
madness effortlessly!


this is the best tested
design, if you couldn't tell.


space must be channelled
though both the floor above
the pump and the floor
between the two uncolored
gears.  (the grate shown
is to circumvent the
walkability issue that this
would otherwise produce.)


it's completely possible to
fill the reactor chamber to
the brim after it's been 
started; this may make it
slightly easier to insure it
never goes dry.

i don't think a full reactor
is necessarily necessary
here.  only one of the
repeater pumps should be
running at any given time,
and as such a mini reactor
should do just fine.


if you'd like to connect all
the pressure plates on the
bottom level to the same work
area as the middle level,
connect them with six doors,
then put one additional door
north of the red plate, and
a ramp north of that.
