Sky Pirate Starter Base with Creeper Farm

I'm building a steam punk pirate island and my first build was my starter storage, base (with bed), and convenient creeper farm. The creeper farm was an unplanned add on while I waited for my single sheep wool farm to generate more wool for the balloon. I realized I had a lot of space inside that I could use for a farm, and the fires at the bottom would look like it was heating the balloon!



I know there's a lot of iron and copper for a "starter" base but I legitimately set up a single sheep auto wool farm, then hit a copper vein and an iron vein, and built this guys while things smelted. It is, in fact, my first build on the server and is functioning as my storage room and home base while I start building up the rest of my island. I recommend moss for the scaffolding, if you can come by it while you're mining. A stack and a half will get you about what you need, and it's quick break with low level tools.
