• Compacting:

1. Crimsite (as a starter for redstone)
2. Diamond (from coal blocks)
3. Asurine (Zinc production line)
4. Veridium (Copper starter. Have a brass.)

• Crushing:

1. Glowstone
2. Netherrack (Blaze Cake starter and a 0.5% chance for wither skeleton skulls)
3. Cinder Flour from Rotten Flesh (beware of by-products)

• Haunting:

1. Coal (charcoal to coal give coalblocks for diamond recipe)
2. Leather (from Rotten Flesh)

• Mixing:

1. Obsidian (for wither cage, tools & armor)
2. Tuff (for crushing: iron, copper, gold, zinc)

• Smoking:

1. Bonemeal from Rotten Flesh

The purpose is to be able to uncraft found items. My modpack EinsEinundzwanzigElf annoyed me by not being able to uncraft that items and that I had to throw them away.

• Crafting:

1. Chainmail Helmet
2. Chainmail Chestplate
3. Chainmail Leggings
4. Chainmail Boots
5. Copper Horse Armor

• To have leather you may haunt it.
• For bonemeal smoke it.
• For cinderflour (and gold nuggets and maybe diamonds) crush it.

• 64 Gravel
• 64 Cobble
• 64 Stone

Each bonk with the mechanical press delivers a full 64 items stack. However, this is not early game. You need a good supply of lava as these generators do eat your lava very quickly. A nether lava train is required to have enough lava for these generators. Heating up the blaze burner can be done i.e. with charcoal and an mechanical arm.

And of course this is not the full truth: Each bonk wants 1 item of the to-deliver items. So in reality you get only 63 items from each bonk. Sorry for that.

In Create Fly 6.0.9 build-3 JEI wrongly displayed a mixer for compacting recipes. The mixer won't work. Put a mechanical press instead. In the JEI's tab the mechanical press is displayed correctly. But in the big picture is shown an animated mixer.

This issue is fixed in Create Fly 6.0.9 build-4
