Update: 1/1/2017
This mod is currently incompatible with Hopper Ducts. Simple Barrels uses the new Capability System, Hopper Ducts uses the old inventory system. They are incompatible.
Check out these spotlights on youtube! :D

This mod adds simple to craft barrels to minecraft that can store up to 4096 items or blocks of a single type in them. Latest version now works with Hoppers and any Mod that supports the new Forge Capabilities system.
Recipe :
Wood Iron Wood
Item Frame Chest Comparator
Wood Iron Wood
Wood can be of any vanilla type. oak will make oak barrel, spruce will make spruce. etc.
You can now craft this without the item frame or comparator. The item Frame lets you see whats inside the barrel, the comparator allows the count to be displayed on the side of the barrel. Later on you can add these items to the barrel with the upgrades, just put 4 sticks around the item frame or comparator to get the upgrade and then shift click the barrel with the item.
***NEW*** Now Supports Forestry planks in the recipe!
Enjoy!
This is exactly what I need, please update to 1.12.2 !
please.... 1.12.2........ these barrels look so much better than all the other barrel mods
Pleas...1.12.2
Will this be ported or updated to have 1.12.2 support? I would love to play around with this mod if it had 1.12 compatibility.

Needs a 1.7.10 version
I see that you haven't gotta to the system where you can add a system that a player could place the barrel horizontally instead of vertical (think of woods, where you can place the woods either vertically or horizontally).
I was just checking on this mod to see if that system have been added.

In reply to workshopcraft:
Is there any way to hide the yellow upgrade number on the barrel? Example image:
uh... why is your barrel square? also, not at moment. I am working on a way to make the upgrade a visual difference on the barrel but that would be totally broken with that jabba model o.O
I've customized the model in my personal texture pack, I prefer the cubic JABBA model.

is a great mod, i do a little () in spanish with the new upgrade system, the old spotlights don't have that info, i hope you enjoy and thanks for your great work
The barrel does not show amount of items on Sky Factory 3 Server.
Is this a barrel with the comparator upgrade applied? You can use comparators to display the count and item frames to view the item inside the barrel. There are 4 recipes that allow you to specify what upgrades you apply(none, comparator, item frame, both) or you can craft upgrade items that you can apply by sneak right clicking the barrel with the upgrade. I am looking at possibly including a configuration option to disable these recipes and have the upgrades applied by default, however that isnt part of the current release. If you already have the relevant upgrade applied already, I will do some investigating as to why this might not work at moment. Hope i've helped. I know that 3.0.4 has issues with barrels until the server restarts. There is an update on here that fixes the problem but if you are running a server, i would recommend waiting for an official update to the pack to avoid headaches tech supporting early upgrade
Hey! Thank you so much for this mod! It will be a big help for me. Is it possible to create a version for 1.8.9 as I am using it with a bunch of older mods? No worries if you can't. Good luck for the future of this mod!
thank you for the kind words. unfortunately, it would be a lot of work to backport to 1.8.9. Not as bad as 1.7.10 but still a lot has changed. I am facing an equally hard task porting to 1.11 as well. Sorry!
