Journal entry Fan
The fan is one of the most versatile devices I've created. Simply put: It pushes things when supplied with steam. It can be used for elevators or to harvest crops, to move items or push animals. I can adjust the fan's range with a wrench.

The Fan is a machine from the Flaxbeard's Steam Power mod. It is used to to push things when it is supplied with steam. It will break grass-like blocks, harvest crops, and push entities (including dropped items). The range of the Fan defaults to 9 blocks, and can be set to any range between 5 and 19 blocks, skipping all even numbers. The range can be changed by sneak-using the Pipe Wrench on it. The Fan can be oriented to push in different directions by using a Pipe Wrench on it.

If the Fan is pointed upwards, it will push everything upwards, including players. The player can get down by simply sneaking until they reach the bottom, or moving out from the airflow. Using a tool that can launch players, such as the Nether Blaster from Santa's Toys, can make a maximum-range Fan shoot players up to 40-50 blocks in the air.

The Fan can be used to create the Vacuum.

Pipes can only be placed on the side opposite of the grated side, and Steam Gauges cannot be placed on the block at all.
