About this Mod
Porting information for 26.1 update
This mod is the successor of Vanilla Hammers and
Vanilla Excavators for Forge on 1.19+. It could be combined with
MoreVanillaLib to have some special effects for most of the tools.

Hammers will mine like a pickaxe, but in a 3x3 area.
Excavators will mine like a shovel, but in a 3x3 area.
If MoreVanillaTools is present, the tool materials of this mod will also enable hammers
and excavators for it.
