Short video on a wither cage with collection system on the nether ceiling, without any need for very difficult bedrock breaking required in 1.13. This is not immediately useful, but presents an interesting challenge to create a tree farm fully on top of the nether ceiling. Also useful knowledge for killing a wither in the nether.
Rays Works on 1.13 wither cages.

![Easiest pigman gold farm 1.13+ (80 gold blocks/hr)
Build guide for 4 layers
AFK height: 214
Layer 4: 120
Layer 3: 117
Layer 2: 114
Layer 1: 111
Landing height: 86 (128 blocks below AFK height)
Spawn pads are a 10 block radius from edge of drop chutes, but this value is not exact.
Item collection is up to you, but I think my SP world solution works well @ 7:17 . Gold nuggets are about 6400/hr which is less than hopper speed. Rotten flesh drops bring it to above hopper speed, so these need to be sorted out first.
I claim this is the easiest gold farm because it
1. requires only digging, no block placement
2. gives 30-40% more spawns per block due to lower height (127 height vs about 170 for on top of the nether ceiling)
Item counter commands:
