Do nether-cap logs inherit the fixed temperature of the nether-cap tree?--DarthCloakedDwarf 03:15, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
I think the more important question is "Since Nethercaps are chilled to 32 degrees F (if I did the math right), will submerged Nnethercaps cause water to freeze into ice?" I only wish I could test this right now. -Coaldiamond 17:14, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
- Likely not - items melt/boil at their melting/boiling points, as opposed to freezing/condensing at them. For example, an object with a melting point of 12345 will be solid at 12344 and liquid at 12345. --Quietust 18:41, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
- Created a completely nethercap pump and have had it pumping magma for ages now, still no signs of deconstruction or damage, whatsoever. --MLegion 20:59, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
- Pump got submerged totally still no damage. --MLegion 21:13, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
- Will items and liquids in a nether-cap barrel always maintain it's temperature? If so - totally fire-safe way of storing food and booze is in such barrels... submerged under magma. Metal barrels don't catch fire themselves but would eventually boil/char their contents.
