Drawbridge

Current drawbridge possibilities are impractical. A practical way to craft a drawbridge would add considerable fun to the game as castle building, defense and raiding are obviously desirable for players.

    It should be made of new hinges, redstone and wood slabs, hinges are crafted from redstone and sticky pistons

    Recipes
    S: sticky piston
    R: redstone dust
    W: wood slabs
    H: hinges

    Hinges:
      S  
    S R S
      R  
    Drawbridge:
    W W H
    W W R
    W W H

    You should be able to join drawbridges and they will move as one. To activate a drawbridge, power it with redstone.

    On the topic of castles, there should also be portcullis, cannons and secret passage blocks that blend in with the surrounding blocks.
