Thanks for stopping by my thread to look at my mod. This is my very first mod for minecraft and indeed my first experience
with Java in general. Regardless, I've still managed to put this mod together in less than 24 hours.
So what is the Mortar and Pestle Mod?
The Mortar and Pestle Mod was a simple Idea that I had that I deemed simple enough to help me
learn Minecraft modding (and Java) without diving a little too far into the deep end. The initial idea was
to add a new Item; the Mortar and Pestle and to try create a new recipe that would allow me to use the
Mortar and Pestle to grind up a Bone to create more Bonemeal than what you'd have gotten from simply putting
the bone into the crafting table... Needless to say, with thanks to those who write detailed tutorials;
I succeeded and now have enough 'grind it up' recipes that I have myself my first small mod.
Okay, so show me some recipes...
Absolutely, here you go, nicely tucked up warm under this here spoiler. Nuh pix nuh clix, right?
I want to see it working..
Well I happen to have a Channel, and I enjoy making Youtube videos... Sooo, I threw one together to show case the mod.

Thanks to everyone who has taken the time out to review the mod on your channels!
Pfft, noob, probably doesn't even have a config file.
I know how Google works. I've ensure all recipes can be enabled and disabled, the output quantities are configurable
and I even added an alternate recipe for the Dyes that require a bottle of water. (Default: enabled)

Credits and Thanks
To achieve this mod, I had used several resources which I am going to list below. If I can make a simple mod
using just a handful of resources, without posting a single request for help, in less than 24 hours; you have no excuse, Mr Wanna'be modder. Go ahead and look up these.
If I helped you in any way or agree in my ideas or posts, make sure you click that green arrow pointing up below my post or simply huggle me! I use 1.7.10 (Modded), so when I comment that I like a 1.8 mod, I will comment to downgrade to 1.7.10. I support no pics, no clicks. Suggestions that I think that are the best deserves a banner!
It is almost time to say goodbye to 1.7.10 because of the recent surge of big 1.9 mods.
Why MCreator sucks: jcm2606's file (doesn't open a new tab) He allows/welcomes anyone to link the file, so I put it here in my signature for people to know how MCreator functions. I thank jcm2606 (he's awesome) for creating the document/file and I'm just here to spread the word.
Nice mod, I've already written on your curse page but I'm using this mod in a modpack, just wondering if I can add recipes for the mortar and pestle, also have you ever considered adding like a better mortar and pestle? Like with more uses? Or one that can be used for ore doubling?
