Air Tools
Air Tools adds a set of air-themed tools crafted from feathers, with the same stats as iron tools.
What it does
The mod adds five tools made from feathers, among them an Air Sword, an Air Pickaxe and an Air Shovel. Each tool works exactly like its iron counterpart, so the mod changes the look of the gear rather than its balance. Recipes use feathers in place of iron, which gives players an early route to tools that feel different without a new material chain.
Because the environment is client and server, the server and every player need the mod installed to use the tools. The files are published for NeoForge only, for 1.21.1 and 1.21.4, with 1.0.0 for 1.21.4 as the latest file. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
