Jill stands on the left side of the image in an outdoor grassy Minecraft landscape, facing the viewer with a worried, slightly overwhelmed expression. She has shoulder-length auburn hair with a side-swept fringe, large round dark eyes, and light skin. She wears a bright orange sleeveless top with a brown belt, dark brown pants, and brown boots, and holds a grey-and-brown pickaxe in her right hand. Scattered around her on the ground are tall stacks of cobblestone blocks piled haphazardly, reinforcing the problem of having too much mined stone. Behind her, two large wooden chests sit overflowing with blocks, their lids propped open and items spilling out. The scene is set in bright daylight on a green hillside with terraced dirt and grass blocks rising in the background. The right ~40% of the image is a plain parchment-style text panel.

Jill has a problem. She has dug up stacks and stacks of stone from her latest mining effort. Now the heavy blocks are scattered all around her. Her chests are so full there is no room for the things she wants to collect.

On the right side of the image, a long line of Minecraft-style villager characters stands queued up on a dirt and grass path, waiting to use a large bin-like structure with a doorway (Dr Can Do's stone-disposal bin) visible near the front of the queue, in a suburban neighbourhood setting with buildings, green grass, and lanterns under a daytime sky with clouds. Jill stands in the middle of the line, clearly distinguishable from the brown-robed villagers by her shoulder-length auburn hair, bright orange sleeveless top with a brown belt, dark brown pants, and brown boots. She holds her grey-and-brown pickaxe and looks frustrated and impatient, glancing toward the front of the line. Approximately eight to ten blocky villager characters in brown robes stand in the queue ahead of and behind her. The left ~40% of the image is a plain beige panel reserved for text.

Jill always used the big bin that Dr Can Do made to get rid of stone. But today, a massive line of people winds down the path, and Jill is stuck in the middle of it. It would be a mistake to wait all day. Jill can solve this on her own!

On the left side of the image, Jill and Dr. Can Do stand together on a grassy area beside a pond, rendered in a Minecraft-style blocky art style. Jill stands at a three-quarter angle facing the viewer, with her shoulder-length auburn hair, bright orange sleeveless top with a brown belt, dark brown pants, and brown boots. She holds a sheet of paper — the pattern and list Dr. Can Do has just given her — and looks at it with a curious, eager expression. Dr. Can Do stands beside her facing the viewer, a stocky figure with light beige skin, white bushy eyebrows, a thick white mustache, and a helpful expression. He wears a white lab coat over a white dress shirt with a red necktie, dark brown belt, dark navy-blue pants, and dark brown shoes, and holds a small grey hammer in his right hand. Between them on the ground is a crafting table with redstone components laid out, and behind them to the left is a large open chest holding buckets and redstone dust, representing the items Jill will need to build her bin. The scene is set outdoors on a bright, sunny day in a suburban neighbourhood with trees, rooftops, and a stone stairway visible in the background. The right ~40% of the image is a plain beige panel reserved for text.

Jill wants to make a bin of her own. Can it really happen? She finds Dr Can Do by the garden pond, and he gives her a pattern and a list of all the items she will need. A big chest beside them holds buckets, redstone, and plenty of other things to collect.

On the right side of the image, Jill stands in an underground room with warm glowing light, looking down with a determined expression at a redstone contraption she has assembled on wooden platforms — the device is laid out but clearly incomplete, with no lava visible inside. Jill has shoulder-length auburn hair, a bright orange sleeveless top with a brown belt, dark brown pants, and brown boots. Her grey-and-brown pickaxe rests nearby, and an empty iron bucket sits on the floor beside her, hinting at her next task. The scene is set indoors in a dimly lit crafting space with stone and wood block walls, illuminated by glowstone lights mounted on the walls. The left ~40% of the image is a plain beige panel reserved for text, framed by a decorative pixelated border.

Down in her workshop, Jill has laid it all out on wooden blocks, but the bin does not work yet. It needs lava inside to melt the stone. That means she will have to head out with a bucket to find a lava pit before sunset.

On the left side of the image, a Minecraft-style redstone contraption is shown from an overhead angle inside a dimly lit stone room. Red redstone dust trails run across sandstone-coloured blocks on the floor, connecting to redstone repeaters and components, with a visible gap in the circuit where a piece of redstone is missing. Glowing light blocks in the upper-left corner cast a warm orange glow over the scene. The right side of the image is a plain beige background reserved for text. No characters are visible in this image.

Jill hurries out and collects a bucket of lava just before sunset. Back at her workshop, she pours it in and the bin is almost done, but it still fails to work. From above, she spots the problem: a missing bit of redstone in the pattern.

On the right side of the image, Jill stands in her underground workshop beside her completed stone-disposal bin — a boxy redstone contraption humming with glowing redstone trails along its surface. Jill has shoulder-length auburn hair, a bright orange sleeveless top with a brown belt, dark brown pants, and brown boots. She holds a cobblestone block in both hands, placing it into the top of the bin with a proud, triumphant smile. A faint particle effect around the bin suggests the cobblestone is vanishing as it enters. The room is warmly lit by a torch mounted on the stone and wood block wall above her, creating a cosy interior glow. The left side of the image is a plain blank panel reserved for text.

With the error now fixed, the bin hums to life. Jill puts her stone block into her very own bin and watches it vanish. No more waiting in line. Now she can get rid of all that stone any time she wants.
