Set Up Your First Unified Storage Workbench

Place Your Main Container

Start by placing a chest or barrel in your storage area—this will be your primary workbench. This container doesn't need to hold items; it acts as the control point for the entire system.

Add Nearby Containers

Place additional chests, barrels, or shulker boxes within the storage search radius of your main container. The mod will automatically detect and connect them. You can arrange containers in any pattern—side by side, stacked, or in a grid.

Open the Workbench

Right-click your main container to open the unified interface. You'll see all items from connected containers displayed in a single view, just like a large inventory. The interface matches vanilla Minecraft's look, so it feels familiar to use.

Adjust Your Setup

If containers aren't connecting, they may be outside the search radius. Check your mod configuration if you need to increase the detection range for larger storage rooms.
