About this Mod

Supports Create 6.0.6 and above, versions up to 6.0.8 have been tested.
Create: Handcrafted is an addon for Create that adds in five tools that allow you to perform certain Create recipes by hand. Useful for modpack developers (what I'm using it for), or when you are far away from your base, but would still like to have a certain Create recipe available.
The tools all behave similar to sandpaper, but doing their respective recipes instead of the polishing recipes. All tools use up some hunger each time they are used, and have limited durability. None of the tools (except for Soul Sand Paper) can be automated using deployers.
(There is a configuration option to re-enable deployer use, but it is currently broken and Deployers will not use the tools correctly!)
This mod adds in the following tools:
- Flint and Iron Handsaws - Can perform Sawing (and Stonecutting if enabled in the Create config) recipes. Can also be used as an axe that automatically cuts whatever block it mines.
- Mortar and Pestle - Performs Millstone recipes.
- Washing Pan - Performs Bulk Washing recipes, the player or the item must be in water to start the recipe.
- Soul Sand Paper - Exactly the same as Sand Paper, but crafted with Soul Sand.
(This is my first Forge mod, but I am quite proud of it! I hope you enjoy!)
