Andesite, Diorite, & Granite Recycler
by BitSmithy
Andesite, Diorite, & Granite Recycler lets players turn unwanted stone variants back into usable blocks, and the Fabric mod runs on the server alone.
What it does
Mining trips often leave chests full of Andesite, Diorite and Granite. The mod gives those spare blocks a use: a standard Minecraft Stonecutter converts them into Cobblestone or Stone instead of leaving them as clutter. Raw variants convert to Cobblestone and Stone, and polished variants convert to the same two outputs.
Each input block yields exactly one output block, so the conversions stay balanced with vanilla rules and no extra resources appear. The mod works in single-player worlds and on multiplayer servers. Only the server needs it, so players join without installing anything. Fabric API is required and must be installed alongside it.
Builds are published for Fabric only, for Minecraft 26.2, with 1.0.0 as the latest file released 2026-08-23. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
Key features
Raw variant recycling
Andesite, Diorite and Granite stonecut into Cobblestone or Stone, so unwanted raw stone returns as building material.
Polished variant recycling
Polished Andesite, Polished Diorite and Polished Granite stonecut into the same outputs, covering the decorative stone types.
One-to-one conversions
Each conversion takes one block in and returns one block out, so the trade stays in line with the recipes already in vanilla.
Uses the vanilla Stonecutter
Conversions run through the standard Stonecutter block, so no new crafting station or machine is needed.
