So, I'm pretty sure for this to work, it would have to be a Building. There is no way to make a functioning Conveyor Belt with a Mill Blade.

'''With a working gear system, I don't see why it would be so hard. Heck, I can build one without gears. It wouldn't be the conventional conveyor belt, sure, but it would still function identically.'''

But I'm pretty sure this will never get added. We need electricity for a Conveyor Belt,

'''Who told you that? All they need in real life is two rotating motors and a large rubber band, electricity is not the only way of powering motors. All information under this is irrelivant.'''

and although electrical batteries date way back to the Mesopotaimian Era and the Ancient Egypt days, and there are some things that suggest that the Ancient Egyptians even had prototype light bulbs. Even though they had low forms of electricity way back then, modern, powerful electricity didn't come along until Benjamin Franklin got struck with lightning and made the first modern light bulb. The Mesopotaimians put vinegar and stuff in a jar, stirred it a bit, a chemical reaction was made. Boom, low level of electricity. And for Narco's reply, I disagree. The suggestions that popped up here are better gears, fancy cheese bins, conveyor belts, water mills and larger windmills. That hardly destroys the survival aspect, even if they all got added. Honestly, I can see you Conveyor Belt moving slower than your own character. Walking over and taking the item out of your Backpack would be getting things done faster than dropping things onto a slow moving Conveyor Belt.
