Create: Craft 'n Extras
by Ethvixity
Create: Craft 'n Extras adds Create machinery recipes for vanilla and modded items, so builders can automate blocks that were previously hand-crafted.
What it does
Crafting grids can be slow to repeat, and players often move between a crafting table and Create machinery to get basic building blocks. This addon replaces much of that with mechanical recipes: a Mechanical Press, Mechanical Saw, Milling and Crushing steps produce items that would otherwise need a grid. Running wood planks through a press, for example, yields trapdoors, and a normal glass pane can be turned into tinted glass.
The addon is described as a lightweight, vanilla-friendly companion to Create that keeps the recipe set close to the base game. Its outputs are tuned to keep game balance intact, and recycling some blocks returns their base components. It works with item transport such as funnels and belts, so new recipes can be fed directly into existing factory lines. Create is required, and the mod runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Files are published for NeoForge 1.21.1 only, with 1.2.1 as the latest release from 2026-06-26, and the code is under the MIT License without being open source.
Key features
Mechanical press recipes
Items such as wood planks can be pressed into trapdoors and other pieces that normally need a crafting grid.
Tinted glass from glass
A normal glass block can be processed by Create machinery into tinted glass.
Saw and milling outputs
The Mechanical Saw, Milling and Crushing steps give precise, higher-yield results from wood and stone.
Automation-ready recipes
Recipes are built for factory integration, working with funnels and belts in automated production lines.
Balanced yields
Output quantities are set so automated production is rewarded without breaking the base game's balance.
