Update #2
I added two mods: Buildcraft and Iron Chests. Both was because I forgot them when I first set up the pack. Derp.

Note: Does not carry over its effect when made into a pendant.

Barrels can hold 64 stacks of a single item, and can be upgraded to hold tons more! You can even make them share an inventory with another barrel!

This little contraption from Applied Energistics is an early game method of doubling your ores. It is super cheap, but has a couple drawbacks. One: See that crank on the top? You have to hold down right click on it to turn it, which grinds the ores. It is a slow process and can not be done via turtle or autonomous activator/any auto clicker. Two: Turn the crank when there is no ores inside and it'll break. It only costs 5 sticks, but is still slightly inconvenient.

This will double your ores at the cost of some power, which is provided by the furnace generator next to it. I used a furnace generator for two reasons. One is it doesn't need water. Two is that in my testing, it provided slightly more power per piece of coal.

This furnace is way more faster then a vanilla furnace. It just needs some RF, again provided by the furnace generator. It's also way more efficient!
Lastly, it cooks food uber fast.
