How do I build HUGE constructions in Minecraft?

Question

If I want to build a really, really huge structure in Minecraft, say, a castle with towers, walls, several floors and over a thousand of squaremeters/tiles per floor, what is the way to go?

How can I effectively accomplish the task without running, climbing etc. around a lot, trying to get up to a wall in order to reach somewhere etc.? Give general ideas and don't focus on my example (the castle) too much. What is a good way to plan such structures before starting to build them?

Answer

Rule number one when taking on a big project: Don't do it alone! Recruit some friends to help you out.

You can use a pixel based editor (Photoshop, Paint, etc.) to plan your constructions out. Each pixel can be one block and then you just design what you want.

I don't know of any off the top of my head but scripts can help if you plan to do vrey repetitive actions. Stuff like backing up while placing blocks to create a wall. I'm sure there are macros that would let you capture keyboard/mouse commands which you can use to build your structures.
