Arcshaper Tools
Arcshaper Tools is a Fabric equipment mod that combines shovel, hoe, pickaxe, axe and sword functions into one Arc Shaper item.
What it does
A single Arc Shaper stands in for a shovel, hoe, pickaxe, axe and sword, so one slot handles all of them. Mining and attacking work as they would with a regular tool, while the special abilities are reached through specific key presses. Holding Shift while right-clicking grass or dirt turns the block into farmland, and holding Control while right-clicking a log strips its bark.
The mod is aimed at players who want fewer tools in the inventory during survival play, whether they are building, farming or exploring. Carrying one item in place of several frees up slots. The combat focus suits players who prefer a weapon that also digs and tills.
Files are published for Fabric only, for game versions 1.21 – 1.21.4, with 1.0.1+1.21.4 for 1.21.4 as the latest build. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. All rights reserved applies, and the project is not open source; its public issue tracker is the only linked resource.
Key features
Combined tool functions
Carrying one Arc Shaper in place of five separate tools keeps the inventory tidy, since it replaces a shovel, hoe, pickaxe, axe and sword.
Tilling grass and dirt
Holding Shift while right-clicking grass or dirt blocks tills them into farmland ready for crops.
Stripping logs and wood
Holding Control while right-clicking a log or wood block strips off the bark to reveal smooth wood.
Regular tool behavior
Mining and attacking work like a standard tool, and the special abilities are used only with specific key presses.
