I think you're missing the point of this post: it's not the combination of lava and water to make cobblestone (which as you say is commonly known) that is interesting here, its the fact that he's used a mould to guide that lava into the shape of a huge wall that is clever.
But why use dirt to make mould when you can just place that cobble? Maybe it doesn't use up pickaxes, so it's cheaper, but not really fast.
Because it takes a long, long time to make even a 5 wide wall that reaches to the clouds.

The thing is there is tons of room for error, this person can place dirt in a square like that pretty fast but other people would fall constantly. This is a great idea but i say stick to building it the ole fashion way.
Lava and water right? Yup. Well, thanks for sharing. Someone will find this information useful
You're an asshole, right?
Hmm... I do sound snarky in that post, don't I? Well, to answer your question I'm not an asshole I'm just really hard to impress because I just don't give a **** half the time :smile.gif:
Just view the video and you can build large walls vary quickly.

Maybe. He might as well be a sarcastic *******. Who knows? He's not really polite with that answer

*faacepalm* You realise that nearly everyone on this forum knows this trick already? That's why people complain.
