Introduction.
Hello guys,Wertusk here.
So i have been offline for some time now but now i am finally
back with a minecraft command tutorial.

So chests have been in the game since the beginning of minecraft but
there was no way to lock them whiout modding the game or use plugins.
Now with 1.8's features we can lock chests for our mapmaking
purposes.I have no knowledge of how to be a great mapmaker so i have
retired my responsibilities on The Desert Survival.

How to lock a chest.
So now i am going to talk about locking and unlocking chests.
When you unlok a chest,the chest will have to be unlocked with
an item that has a specific name.You can either use this with the
/give command or you can always use an anvil as a simpler way to name
an item that you have.
The command used to lock a chest is the command below.
/blockdata ~ ~ ~ {Lock:"(LockNameGoesHere)"}
You can name the lock with any name you wish but after you do please remove the () so the command
will work.
Please replace the ~ ~ ~ with coordinates of the chest so the command will function.

Thanks for reading!
Thank you for reading guys and i do hope this command Tutorial will help
you in your mapmaking purposes,that is all i am going to share with you
for today and goodbye!

Interesting, even if the chest is locked, you can still break it to get the items out of the chest!  This can be a bug that hasen't been reported or it is just 1.8.8!  Just an interesting fact!

Well that might not happen since this concept is usually only used in Adventure maps where players are in adventure mode. :D
