Betweenlands' Tinker
by moos2333
Betweenlands' Tinker is a Forge addon for Tinkers' Construct that brings Betweenlands materials, tools and traits into the smeltery and tool forge on Minecraft 1.12.2.
What it does
The addon adds seven new tool materials, five tools and five traits to Tinkers' Construct. Its Pickaxe, Shovel, Hatchet, Broadsword and Shortbow draw on Betweenlands materials, and Bowstring, Reed Rope and Silk Thread parts carry the Between trait. Tools made this way are built through the tool forge like any other Tinkers' tool.
Smeltery support keeps the Betweenlands dimension's corrosion and weakness systems in effect, so affected tools stay immune to those effects. An Animator converts existing vanilla Tinkers' tools into Betweenlands versions with stats, modifiers and durability carried over exactly, and it can repair broken tools. Parts converted through it include Tool Rod, Handle, Binding, Extra Blade or Head and Tool Head.
Mantle and Tinkers' Construct are required, and Construct's Armory is an optional dependency. The mod is published only for Forge and only for 1.12.2, with the latest file, 0.6.4, released on 2026-10-15 on the beta channel. The server and every player need the mod installed.
Key features
Betweenlands tools
Pickaxe, Shovel, Hatchet, Broadsword and Shortbow are built from Betweenlands materials in the tool forge.
Syrmorite casts
Molten Syrmorite poured over tool parts creates permanent casts for shaping them.
Sulfur distiller
Sulfur blocks are charged to release molten sulfur, which serves as early smeltery fuel and opens molten Octine as a lava-tier fuel.
Animator conversion
The Animator turns vanilla Tinkers' tools into Betweenlands versions and repairs broken ones, with a Life Crystal and sulfur as inputs.
