About:
Create Crafts & Additions extends Create and acts as a bridge between electricity and kinetic energy from Create by adding an Electric Motor which generates kinetic energy from Forge energy and an Alternator which does the opposite at 75% efficiency. To craft these items you need to make a Rolling Mill which is a kinetic machine that is used to make rods and wires. All the recipes are available through JEI.
Content:
- Electric Motor: Generates kinetic energy from Forge Energy, provides a ComputerCraft peripheral.
- Alternator: Generates Forge Energy from kinetic energy.
- Rolling Mill: Used to craft Wires and Rods.
- Creative Generator: Generates a limitless supply of Forge Energy.
- Connector & Wires: Wires for energy transfer.
- Redstone Relay: Controls energy flow with Redstone.
- Accumulator: Multiblock energy storage.
- Portable Energy Interface: Transfer energy to and from contraptions.
- Tesla Coil: Charges electric items, and can also be used to inflict damage to Players and Mobs.
- Digital Adapter: Allows Computercraft computers to talk to various Create blocks (See API).
- Biomass: Pellet, Fuel.
- Chocolate and Honey Cake.
- Diamond Grit Sandpaper.
- Straw: Applied to a Blaze Burner will give it the ability to burn liquid fuels.
- Barbed Wire block.
- Biomass, Biomass Pellet, Sead Oil, and Bioethanol.
- Various wires, rods, spools, and other crafting components.
Legacy Features:
- Induction Heater (Removed in 20220710a): Heats furnaces using Forge Energy (Replaces External Heater from Immersive Engineering).
- Charging Station (Removed in 20211122a): Charges electric items.
- Furnace Burner (Removed in 20220709a): Furnace which doesn't require a smelting recipe to run.
- Crude Burner (Removed in 20220709a): A Furnace Burner that is fueled by liquids such as Seed, Plant, Crude, and Creosote Oil.
- Accumulator (Replaced with multiblock): Energy storage.
- Overcharged Hammer: A powerful throwable melee weapon (only in 1.16).
- Multimeter (only in 1.16).
Added Compatibility & Integration:
- Recipe compatibility with Simple Jetpacks 2 (Electric Jetpacks).
- Recipe compatibility with Immersive Engineering (External Heater, Lapis Sheet pressing, Sphalerite mineral deposit, Alloys, Treated Wood).
- Recipe compatibility with Mekanism (Rose Quartz Enriching & Metallurgic Infusing).
- Recipe compatibility with Tinkers Construct (Alloys).
- Recipe compatibility with Applied Energistics 2, the Tesla Coil can be used to charge Certus Quartz.
- Integration with ComputerCraft, the Electric Motor, and more can be used as a peripheral (See API).

What does Create Crafts and Additions do?
It bridges Create's kinetic (rotational) energy and Forge Energy electricity. The Electric Motor turns electricity into rotation, and the Alternator turns rotation back into electricity at reduced efficiency.
How do you make an Electric Motor?
Build it at Create's Mechanical Crafting from an Andesite Alloy, a brass sheet, a Capacitor, an iron rod and a Copper Spool. It converts Forge Energy into kinetic energy for Create contraptions.
How do you generate power in Create Crafts and Additions?
Use Liquid Burning, which burns fuels like biodiesel, creosote, crude oil, ethanol or even lava for energy. You can make your own fuel by mixing organics with plant oil into Biomass and then Bioethanol.
What are spools and wires used for?
Wires wound onto an Empty Spool (Copper, Gold or Electrum Spool) are the conductors and components for the mod's electric machines. Electrum, made by mixing gold and silver, is the higher-grade wiring metal.
What does the Charging process do?
Charging recharges energy-holding items using power, and can also oxidize or de-oxidize copper blocks, giving a use for rotational or electric energy beyond running machines.
How do you store energy in Create Crafts and Additions?
The Capacitor is the basic energy component, and the Accumulator — made from a copper rod, capacitors, a brass casing and electrum wire — stores larger amounts of Forge Energy.
