Obsidian Factory
This obsidian factory design works quite nicely, producing 400 obsidian stones per batch, though operating it requires several lever pulls in a specific order and several long waits in between them.

Automation
In an effort to make operation less tedious, the following automation system has been designed. A single lever will initiate a sequence of events that produces a batch of obsidian, ready for mining.
Timing System
Each pressure plate opens the floodgate immediately to the south and activates zero or more special triggers. Each step takes 100 frames, plus time taken for the water to flow through (which should be near zero if the source is sufficiently pressurized). ON signals and inverted (/Signal) OFF signals activate more or less immediately (plus another 100 frames for bridges and floodgates), while OFF signals and inverted ON signals take an additional 100 frames to respond.
Trigger lever (pull twice, with sufficient delay) - Timer:ON, Magma:RESET, Water:RESET, Mixer:RESET, Access:RESET
- Alternatively, the trigger lever could be connected to a edge trigger to permit making a batch of obsidian with only a single lever pull.

Simple resettable trigger

This is a simple Permanent Effect Pressure Plate, having separate ON and OFF signals. The pressure plate at the bottom should be set to trigger either on 4-7 water or 0-3 water, depending on the desired "polarity" of the trigger. The "ON" signal is connected to the floor hatch (which should be primed with a tile of 4/7 or more water), and the "OFF" signal is connected to a disengaged gear assembly at the top (the gear should be linked to an existing lever and toggled before being connecting to your other systems). Note that this system will misbehave if both the ON and OFF signals are active at the same time.
Complex resettable trigger

This is a more versatile Permanent Effect Pressure Plate, such that it will only accept one ON signal followed by one OFF signal before it must be RESET, most useful for systems where you need to perform a sequence of events and deactivating the ON signal before sending an OFF signal would increase complexity.
The pressure plate at the bottom should be set to trigger either on 4-7 water or 0-3 water, depending on the desired "polarity" of the trigger. The "ON" signal is connected to the lower floor hatch, the "OFF" signal is connected to a disengaged gear assembly at the top (the gear should be linked to an existing lever and toggled before being connecting to your other systems), and the "RESET" signal is linked to the upper floor hatch (which should be primed with a tile of 4/7 or more water). Unlike the Simple resettable trigger described above, it is possible to activate the OFF signal while the ON signal is still active without disrupting the trigger's function - once both the ON and OFF triggers have been deactivated, simply toggle the RESET signal to return the trigger to its initial state. By leaving the RESET signal permanently active, this trigger can behave the same as the simple resettable trigger.
