🛠️ The Tools

🪄 Building Wands

Place blocks in patterns instantly. Requires the block in your inventory (or linked Bundle).

• Tiers: Copper (3x3), Iron (5x5), Gold/Diamond (7x7), Netherite (9x9).
• Usage: Right-click a block to extend the face.
• Enchantments:
  • Cover: Builds on the surface layer instead of a flat plane.
  • Linear: Forces placement in a single line axis.
  • Bridge: Builds a platform extending into the air from the edge.

🔨 Sledgehammers

Heavy mining tools that break multiple blocks at once. Slower than pickaxes but clears large areas.

• Tiers: Stone to Netherite.
• Mining Area: 3x3 by default.
• Enchantments:
  • Radius: Increases area to 5x5.
  • Break Through: Increases mining depth (mines blocks behind the target).
  • Override: Allows mining mixed materials (e.g. Stone & Dirt at once).

🧲 The Magnet

A utility tool to help clean up after mining or building.

• Function: Pulls items toward the player when held in Mainhand or Offhand.
• Usage: Sneak to temporarily disable the magnet (useful for throwing items to other players).
• Enchantments:
  • Constructor's Touch: Increases range and enables Item Filtering (Right-click an Item Frame to set the filter).

🏹 Quivers

Dedicated arrow storage. Automatically supplies your Bow when equipped in Offhand or Chestplate.

• Standard Quiver: 1 Stack (64 Arrows).
• Netherite Quiver: 2 Stacks (128 Arrows). Fireproof.
• Enchantments:
  • Deep Pockets: Multiplies capacity.
  • Constructor's Touch: Access arrows from anywhere in inventory.

🗿 Chisels & Spatulas

Transform blocks in-world without a Stonecutter.

• Chisel: Cycles block variants forward (e.g. Stone -> Bricks -> Chiseled).
• Spatula: Cycles block variants backward.
• Enchantments: Fast Chiseling (Faster cooldown), Constructor's Touch (Better transformations).

📏 Octant & Velocity Gauge

Measurement tools to help you plan your builds and track your speed.

• Octant: Mark two points to measure distance and area. Supports various shapes like Cuboids, Spheres, Cylinders, and Pyramids to preview builds. Available in 16 colors.
• Velocity Gauge: Displays real-time speed (BPS). Use Constructor's Touch for more detailed stats.

✨ Aesthetics & Blocks

🏮 Glowing Armor Trims

Make your armor trims glow in the dark!

• Effect: Adds an emissive effect to trims (similar to Enderman eyes), making them visible in absolute darkness.
• Crafting: Combine Armor + Glowing Trim Template + Glow Ink Sac in a Smithing Table.

🧱 Custom Blocks

• Reinforced & Netherite Furnaces, Smokers & Blast Furnaces: Cook food and smelt ores at significantly higher speeds (2x for Reinforced, 4x for Netherite).
• Reinforced Piston: Stronger pushing capabilities.
• Netherite Piston (The Breaker): Unlike a normal piston, this block breaks the block in front of it when activated based on signal strength.
• Reinforced Hopper: Increased transfer speed and item throughput.
• Netherite Hopper: Maximum speed for high-performance sorting systems.
• Construction Light: A bright, industrial light source crafted with Lapis and Glass. Perfect for preventing mob spawns in large halls without spamming torches.

🎒 Reinforced Storage

• Reinforced Bundle: Can be enchanted with Deep Pockets for massive storage capacity.
• Netherite Bundle: Highest capacity and durability.
