About this Mod
A light Minecraft mod that adds various compressed blocks for convenience and block variety.
The goal of this mod isn't to compress every block, or recursive compressions, as these mods exist already (checkout CB: Compressed Blocks for a cool example). The goal if these mod is to target the obvious cases in a polished way (e.g. compressed blaze rod blocks emit light).
This mod is perfect for running your items from a farm into a crafter before heading to storage.
