    No.

    Does it work with diamonds?

    Community Answer
    No. Diamonds are used for crafting, not for an infinite source. If you want an infinite source, go mining.
  • Question
    Does it work with milk?

    Community Answer
    No. Milk isn't meant to be transferred to one place from another; it's meant to be used in recipes.
  • Question
    Does it work with dirt?

    Community Answer
    No. Dirt is not a liquid. Dig holes into the ground if you want infinite dirt.
  • Question
    How am I supposed to get that much water?

    You only need 2 buckets for this to work. Try searching around your world for ponds, lakes, swamps, or oceans. All of the above will have enough water for you.
  • Question
    Does it work with slime blocks?
    Banana Head
    Top Answerer
    No. Slime blocks are not water and therefore cannot be infinitely generated this way. You can build a slime farm if you still want an infinite supply.
  • Question
    Would it work if I doubled the size to 4x4?
    Banana Head
    Top Answerer
    Yes! Just follow the same method as above to fill up your 4x4 area. Once it is all still, you can take water from any of the 16 blocks.
  • Question
    Does it work with brain cells?
    Banana Head
    Top Answerer
    No. Brain cells, sadly, haven't been added to the game yet. I'm sure that there is some mod out there that has them, but with vanilla Minecraft, there are no braincells and no way to generate them.
  • Question
    Can we make 10 x 10 infinite water source?
    Banana Head
    Top Answerer
    Yes! Dig out your 10 x 10 area, place water along the edges every 2 blocks, then work your way towards the middle, placing water along each diagonal. That way you should fill in every block without having to place water in every block.
  • Question
    Why do people keep asking if this can be used with solids?
    Banana Head
    Top Answerer
    It's a joke by some person but the lava/milk are good questions. You're right that it is odd to ask about solids.
  • Question
    Does it work with sheep?

    Community Answer
    No. There is no way to turn sheep into water in vanilla Minecraft. This might be possible with mods, however, I'm not aware of any mods that do this.
  • Question
    Does it work with cooked mutton?
    ClosedAccount20170223
    Community Answer
    No. Cooked mutton is a food source, not a way to get water. Maybe with some mods this is possible, but in vanilla Minecraft it is not.
  • Question
    Does it spawn creepers?

    Community Answer
    No, it doesn't. Water does not cause creepers to spawn, and a pond this deep does not allow any other mobs to spawn in it.

    Does it work with sheep?

    Community Answer
    No. Not without mods that allow you to pick up a sheep in a bucket. In order to get a infinite supply of sheep, start a farm.
  • Question
    Does it work with blood?
    IncognitoAnimal
    Community Answer
    Not currently, as blood is not a substance that can be collected/placed in any Minecraft versions without mods.
  • Question
    Can an update create liquid-diamond, and if so, can it be used as an infinite source?
    IncognitoAnimal
    Community Answer
    Well, it depends on how it runs. Infinite water sources are based on the speed at which the water replaces the water you just took from it using a bucket. If the liquid diamonds flow at the same speed of water or quicker, it is theoretically possible to create an infinite liquid-diamond source.
  • Question
    Is there a way to do it so you do not have to travel to the water hole and back as much?
    IncognitoAnimal
    Community Answer
    No, unfortunately not. You need to have a source of water in order to start the infinite source.
