About this Mod

!

One of the most important features announced at the Minecraft 2023 conference was the possibility of adding crab claws to the game, which would allow the player to break and place blocks at a greater distance. Unfortunately, the idea was scrapped, and will never be in Minecraft... oh wait, this mod adds them!

Players will now be able to find these crab claws in treasure chests or water structures, and with them equipped, it will be possible to break and place blocks 8 blocks away. You can also interact in other ways!

We recommend that the tweezers be placed on the secondary hand!

Do you need a server to play with your friends?

For exceptional server hosting services, look no further than ****. Of course, you can install all the mods or modpacks you want, and their support team is always available to help you.

Now you can use new crab claws to break or place blocks from a greater distance!

Of course, you can put them on your secondary hand and it will still have the same effects.

Does it work on servers?

Sure! Remember that the best way to play with mods and friends is with BisectHosting, and by .

Can this mod be used in modpacks?

Of course! As long as it is published only on Modrinth or CurseForge. Uploading it to any other platform would be violating our rights and is not allowed at all.

However, we are really grateful if you consider adding it to your Modrinth or CurseForge modpack. If you need any small changes or have any questions, contact us!
