Lol, I'm getting into Minecraft now. I have yet to buy the full game, but I've been having some fun on the free version.

Spoiler:

inb4 necrobump. It's a decent thread. So there.

While looking for coal, i came across a rather large natural cave, so I made it my home because of the coal and iron within. My next task is to expand my cave and dig down.

That's a really good idea, That's where most my stations are, in a mountain where i found a lot of coal/iron.
