Easy Smithing Template Cutter 🪚
Easy Smithing Template Cutter adds an Empty Smithing Template that a stonecutter turns into any vanilla Smithing Template.
What it does
The mod adds one craftable item, the Empty Smithing Template, and a stonecutter recipe that converts it into a chosen vanilla template, such as an armor trim or netherite upgrade template. Players place the empty template in a stonecutter, select the template they want, and take the result. The converted templates work in the normal Smithing Table exactly like the originals, so the vanilla armor trim and netherite upgrade systems stay unchanged.
The mod targets players who would otherwise search many structures for specific templates. It keeps crafting materials as a requirement rather than making templates free, so it offers a convenient alternative without replacing the Smithing Table system. The project is lightweight and runs on client and server, so both sides need it. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 13 release versions, 1.20.1 – 26.2, and the mod is licensed under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
Key features
Stonecutter conversion
Empty templates are converted in a stonecutter, where each vanilla template is selected from a list.
Armor trim and netherite templates
Vanilla armor trim and netherite upgrade templates are supported, so both kinds can be produced.
Vanilla smithing behavior
Created templates behave like standard vanilla Smithing Templates in the Smithing Table.
Crafting cost kept
Templates still need crafting materials, so the mod shortens the search rather than making templates free.
