Craft Netherite Tools Without a Smithing Table

Direct Crafting on a Workbench

This mod restores the ability to craft netherite tools directly using a crafting table, bypassing the need for a smithing table entirely.

What You Need

Gather your materials:

• Netherite ingots (the required amount depends on the tool)
• Sticks (for tool handles)
• A crafting table

Crafting Steps

1. Open your crafting table

2. Arrange netherite ingots and sticks in the same pattern you'd use for iron or diamond tools

3. For pickaxes, axes, and shovels: place ingots in the top row, sticks below in a T-shape

4. For swords: stack ingots vertically with a stick below

5. For hoes: arrange ingots horizontally with sticks to one side

6. Drag the finished tool into your inventory

Benefits

You'll save time and resources by avoiding the smithing table entirely. This is especially useful early in your netherite progression when you want quick access to better tools.
