Sorting items
Drop items into a copper chest. The golem picks them up and tries to put them into nearby wooden or trapped chests.
Simple sorterPut one copper chest as your drop-off point and wooden chests around it. Let the golem do the carrying.
Stopping it rusting
Like copper blocks, the golem oxidises over time. Fully oxidised, it turns into a 
copper golem statue and drops whatever it held.
- Use Honeycomb to wax it and stop this.
- Use an
Iron axe or any axe to scrape off one stage of oxidation. - Scrape a statue with an axe to bring it back to life.
LightningLightning also scrapes off a stage of oxidation, which can actually help a rusty golem.
