The Large Water Wheel icon.png Large Water Wheel is a Power icon.png Power Buildings icon.png Building unique to the Iron Teeth icon.png Iron Teeth. It generates power from flowing water. It is bigger and more efficient than the Compact Water Wheel icon.png Compact Water Wheel. It also produces much more Power icon.png Power. If you have enough space and construction materials, build Large Water Wheels instead of Compact Water Wheels.

Construction

Although the building cost is relatively high, it generates significantly more Power than the Compact Water Wheel or Large Power Wheel icon.png Large Power Wheel.

Place Large Water Wheels on rivers at least two blocks wide, with flowing water to generate power. Large Water Wheels needs a single support block on one side where the axle juts out. This support can be any Solid structure, but platforms are commonly used.

Due to the height, a {{|icon|Vertical Power Shaft}} is usually needed to bring the power down to the buildings, so ensure you have Gear Workshop icon.png Gear Workshop before committing to using these.
