Frequently asked questions

How do I start recycling in this mod?
Open a crafting table and place any unwanted tool or armor piece in the grid according to the recycling recipe for that item type. The recipe will return the base materials that tool or armor was made from.
What do I get back when I recycle a tool?
You receive the primary crafting material used to make that tool—for example, recycling an iron pickaxe returns iron ingots, and recycling a diamond sword returns diamonds. The exact amount depends on the tool type.
Can I recycle damaged or broken tools?
Yes, damaged tools recycle the same way as new ones and return the same materials regardless of durability. This makes recycling useful for tools that are almost broken.
How do I recycle netherite gear?
Netherite tools and armor recycle into netherite scraps using the same crafting method as other items. You can then combine netherite scraps with gold ingots at a smithing table to rebuild netherite items if needed.
