Arda's Uncrafting Table [ Uncraft / Recycle / Deconstruct Mod ]
by Ixra
Arda's Uncrafting Table is a functional block that turns a finished item back into the ingredients it was crafted from, using reverse crafting recipes.
What it does
Players place an item into the input slot on the left side of the table, and the materials it would have been crafted from appear in the output grid. The table works with vanilla recipes as well as recipes added by other mods, and it can only dismantle items that match a valid crafting recipe. When several recipes produce the same item, the Next Recipe button cycles through them. Recipe details are shown through JEI or REI.
The mod is designed for players who want to recover resources from surplus or damaged gear rather than discard it. Its chance system depends on durability: a fully intact item returns all of its ingredients, while a damaged item returns them with a probability tied to the remaining durability. Server-side execution keeps the recovered items in sync between the server and clients and prevents ghost items. Arda's Uncrafting Table is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with files for 1.16.5, 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and requires both the server and every player to run it. The code is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.

Crafting-table recipe
