Construct Crates
by Team Jackdaw
Construct Crates, a Forge addon for Tinkers' Construct, adds crates that players can set up as a shop stock item.
What it does
Construct Crates is an addon that only adds new crates compatible with Tinkers' Construct, so it needs both Apple Crates and Tinkers' Construct installed to work properly. Its crates are functional stock items that can be set up as a shop, which places the mod in the Economy category, with Decoration and Storage also listed.
Only the Forge loader is supported. Builds exist for 1.18.2, 1.19.2 and 1.20.1, with 3.0.2 for 1.20.1 as the latest file, published on 2025-11-08.
