Hand tools stay in the grid while crafting and wear down. Shift-click crafts as much as possible.
Forge Hammer: ingot → plate (160 uses)
Wire Cutter: plate → 2 wire (120 cuts)
Mortar: ingot or gem → dust (100 uses). This lets you mix alloys without machines.
The
Wrench rotates tech blocks (right-click) and dismantles them safely (sneak + right-click). It works with every mod.
