I was thinking it would be some sort of "reward" for creating instant structures, etc. Like the same reward as you get for mining diamonds, etc.
I'm still experimenting what would be the right amount of xp to give.
Maybe different amounts for each.
I see one flaw in this, where the player could basically convert iron into experience by crafting tons of suction blocks, and then sucking in and creating water/lava from one little pool.
Dunno if that's a good idea, considering the blocks are already slightly overpowered?
In fact, I might even recommend taking away a couple of XP levels when using an Instant Block

I see your point. I've thought about this, and decided to remove giving experience, and instead of taking away experience from the player, you're now required to use Instant Wands (Still not sure about calling it a "wand". If anyone has better ideas, let me know.)
The uses are not final, I might change them slightly, but I got these numbers from basically: vanillaToolVersion / 30. Except for the Instant Golden Wand, which has 2 instead of 1. I may even raise it up to 4 or 8.
The crafting of these wands include: 1 stick, 1 redstone block, 3 materialType (For Instant Diamond Wand, it'll be diamonds).
Let me know what you guys think.

Instant Blocks Mod - 17 new blocks that generate structures upon right-click. Includes: Farm, Rainbow Skydive, Grinder, Escape Ladder, Water, Lava, Suction, and Statue Blocks.
v1.4.3 update is out!
The main addition in this update is the Instant Wands. They are now required to activate the Instant Blocks.
I've made the Instant Wooden House re-packable, but I only made it check for the bed, chests, furnaces, workbench, and door for now. So, I've disabled it by default, but you could enable it in the config if you want.
Changelog:
v1.4.3 (01/06/2013)
- Improved the Instant Blocks command.
- Added Instant Wands.
- Added achievements.
- Made the Instant Wooden House packable.
- Fixed some small bugs.

Packing up wooden houses is still in "beta", I'll be improving it soon. So, for now it is disabled by default, but you could go to "/.minecraft/config/InstantBlocks.cfg" and look for this:
# Whether to be able to repack an Instant Wooden House.
# (Default = false)
B:"Re-Pack House"=false
Then change it to:
# Whether to be able to repack an Instant Wooden House.
# (Default = false)
B:"Re-Pack House"=true
Thank you for supporting me by using the Instant Blocks signature! I greatly appreciate it!
HELP! When I try to launch Minecraft, it keeps on crashing! It worked before, but once when I tried to launch Minecraft, it kept on crashing. I tried re-installing forge several times and I get the same thing. If I remove Instant Blocks from the mods folder, it doesn't crash. Please fix this.
Here's the crash report:

I've been wondering, how do you pack the wooden house like it says? i can't find anything on how to do that.
Sorry, my bad.
I'll go through it for those who want to be able to do so.
First, make sure your Minecraft is off.
Now, go to your ".minecraft" directory, then open the "config" folder.
In the "config" folder, there should be an "InstantBlocks.cfg" or just "InstantBlocks".
Open that up in any text editor, like Notepad.
Look for this section:
# Whether to be able to repack an Instant Wooden House.
# (Default = false)
B:"Re-Pack House"=false
Change the '"Re-Pack House"=false' to '"Re-Pack House"=true'.
So, now the section should look like this:
# Whether to be able to repack an Instant Wooden House.
# (Default = false)
B:"Re-Pack House"=true
Save the file, and exit out of it.
Now, turn on your Minecraft, like usual, and join a world.
Place an Instant Wooden House Block, and create it. You will notice that the actual Instant Wooden House Block stays. All you have to do now, is break the Instant Wooden House Block, and the House "packs" itself back.
Note, the reason it is set to false by default is that it's still not finished, and has some bugs. I'll hopefully fix it up and have it set to true by default next version.

Interesting. Does that mean we could have infinite glassdomes?
Yes. I had this for testing the wands for a bit. I completely forgot to remove it before release.
I don't want to release another update with just this fixed, and so soon.
I'll release the next update soon, and be sure to check everything, and hope to fix everything.
I'm extremely sorry for my sloppiness on the last two releases.

After I got the achievement for getting an instant wand, my game crashes upon start up. Is there something that I did incorrectly?Nevermind, i found a post with the same problem as mine, sorry to take up forum space
Here's a more stabilized version. I removed the achievements for now since they were causing games to crash for some people. I've improved the /instantblocks command a lot also. You are now able to configure Instant Blocks options without exiting the game and editing the config file. Also some neat commands like randomizing the pattern for the rainbow skydive (/ib woolRandom). The whole command list can be found by just typing in: /instantblocks or /ib.

I have removed the Instant Blocks achievements in this update, so it should be good now. I'll look into this and see if I could fix the problem and return the achievements.

There's 5 wands.
Instant Wooden Wand = 2 Uses.
Instant Stone Wand = 4 Uses.
Instant Iron Wand = 8 Uses.
Instant Golden Wand = 2 Uses.
Instant Diamond Wand = 52 Uses.
The uses are not final, I might change them slightly, but I got these numbers from basically: vanillaToolVersion / 30. Except for the Instant Golden Wand, which has 2 instead of 1. I may even raise it up to 4 or 8.
