build command block
by BLNMEZ
Build command block adds recipes that craft a command block, so players can make one without commands or creative mode.
What it does
The mod adds crafting recipes for the command block and a set of mining tools made from sticks. It is a Forge mod for Minecraft 1.20.1, and it runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Files are published only for Forge under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license, which means the mod is not open source.
Key features
Craftable command blocks
A command block can be assembled from materials in a survival world, where it is normally unavailable.
Stick-based mining tools
Stick, sword, pickaxe, axe, shovel and hoe recipes are added for crafting with the mod's materials.
Planned placement changes
The author lists placing command blocks on the ground as a future addition, not a current feature.

Currently the mod has 3 different mines, tools (Stick, Sword, Pickaxe, Axe, Shovel, Hoe) and a crafting table. In the future you will be able to place the command block on the ground, I couldn't do that right now:D
