This is a small and efficient redstone contraption that functions as a T flip flop, also known as a switch or lever. It utilizes a sticky piston, a redstone block, and an observer to toggle outputs.
The device can be activated by an input signal, which then powers the sticky piston holding the observer. This allows for the control of various mechanisms, such as piston-based trapdoors, as demonstrated in the first image.
The second image shows the device in its powered state after a single activation. The third image highlights a stealthy application, where a hidden button can be used to toggle the piston trapdoor without the need for a visible lever, offering a more discreet operation.
Materials Required
3 block types · 4 blocks · 5×1×1
Before You Build

What to bring first
Survival or creative?
Every block in this build can be obtained in survival, so it can be built by hand without creative mode or commands.
How to Place It:
Moving parts
It includes Observer, Redstone Block, Sticky Piston, so check the mechanism still works after pasting – redstone state and item-container contents do not always survive a paste.
