I'm playing a Skyblock map and was wondering this. I don't have a blaze rod since my nether is void. No blaze rod = no potions, no potions = no splash potions, no splash potions = no curing zombie villagers, no curing zombie villagers = no iron farm, no iron farm = no hoppers. Also, redstone drops from witches in my mob spawner are so rare as to be non existent.
I would like to set up a charcoal factory, but is this, or indeed any type of automation possible without redstone and hoppers?
I should also mention that I am playing Skyblock 2.1 map offline and not on a server, so "buying" redstone and iron isn't an option.
Iron ingots can be found rarely on zombies killed by the player.
I *think* you can get blaze rods in Skyblock SSP. You need to find the location of a nether fortress and build a floor for mobs to spawn. Blazes will spawn occasionally inside a fortress bounding box.
I haven't got that far in my Skyblock world yet, but it is on my list when I have a lot more resources and a lot of free time!
Without mob drops or trading on skyblock you have access to: Levers, pressure plates, doors, trapdoors, gates, tripwire hooks(fishing) and dispensers(bows via fishing).
a good bit you can do with all that. You can make water clocks, sort out different types of mobs, etc.

It isn't. But zombies drop iron and witches drop redstone! Also just a brewing stand and you can corrupt water bottles for weakness.
Watch out for the crabocalypse. Some say the day will never come. But it will.
Feel free to drop by for a chat whenever.
If you'd like to talk with me about other games, here are a few I play.
Team Fortress 2
Borderlands series (Borderlands 2 is my favorite game, ever. TPS combat is a lot of fun and makes up for the lower-quality story, in my opinion)
Elder Scrolls series
Warframe (IGN is something like That_One_Flesh_Atronach)
Pokémon series (HGSS forever)
Rocket League
Fallout series
Left 4 Dead 2 (Boomer files always corrupt though)
SUPERHOT (SUPERHOT is the most innovative shooter I've played in years!)
Dead Rising series (Dead Rising 2 is one of my favorite games, and the 3rd was a lot of fun. 1st has poor survivor AI and the 4th is bad)
Just Cause series
Come to think of it, I mainly play fighting-based games.
Witches throw weakness potions as well

a good bit you can do with all that. You can make water clocks, sort out different types of mobs, etc.
but if you want a good quantity of iron, you can cure 3 zombieficates and make a villagerbreeder (i recommend the one from UnaryBit)
to make the potion stand you have to look for a nether fortress, there are tutorials. and the golden apples from trees and zombie pigs.
then when you have enough villagers, make an iron farm.
