Lever Powered Toggleable Nether Portal (1.6 compatible)

I have completely redesigned this device (originally this) and made a few very big changes as listed below.


-Brought back the portal indicator (optional)


-Compacted redstone (Even more! 4x3x3)


-Instead of two buttons, it's now one lever that controls the portal


-Moved dispensers


-Less resource intensive




For those who don't know what this is, it is basically a nether portal with a few redstone additions that will make it so that the player can turn the portal on and off (with a flick of a lever). Also, this design is 1.6 compatible. As some designs utilize the new feature in 1.7 (dispenser with flint and steel in a portal doesn't have to be at the bottom to activate it), thus making the design incompatible with 1.6. This design is compatible with both versions.

What's great about this design is that it's extremely easy and fast to build (more so than the previous design), as most of the redstone is on one layer. Plus, it requires very little resources (x7 building blocks of choice, x3 redstone, x1 redstone torch, x2 redstone repeater, x1 sand/gravel/red sand, x1 regular piston, x2 dispenser, x1 water bucket, x1 lever and 1-9 flint and steel, plus some obsidian).

Moderators: If you find this project to be too close/similar to the one I previously updated please tell me. I would remove it and put it as an update to the project.
