What it does

The mod adds portable copies of vanilla machines: a Crafting Table, Cartography Table, Smithing Table, Blast Furnace, Enchanting Table and Brewing Stand. Each one is crafted from an Item Frame and the matching machine, so a player can open the workstation without placing a block. The mod is aimed at survival play, where carrying a workstation while mining, building or exploring saves trips back to a base.

Fabric API is required on every loader, so it must be installed next to Simple Pocket Machines. The mod runs on client and server, so both sides need it. Builds are published for Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt, covering 1.20.1 – 26.3 across 15 release versions. The code is open source under the MIT License, and the source code and issue tracker are public.
