Uncrafter - Turn Items Back Into Ingredients

Ever crafted an item and wished you could get its ingredients back? Uncrafter introduces a dedicated block that lets you reverse crafting recipes and recover ingredients from items you no longer need.

Place an item into the Uncrafter, view its recipe, and take the returned ingredients through a simple custom interface. The mod is designed to support both vanilla and modded items, making it a useful addition to modded survival worlds.

✨ Features
