Slowcraft

Slowcraft is a library mod for making SlowTools: progressive-crafting items inspired by Knitting from Better Than Wolves, and Polishing from Create.

A SlowTool is an intermediary item that the player holds right-click to work on. Its durability bar fills as the craft progresses, and when it finishes, the SlowTool is replaced with its configured outputs.

SlowTools remember their progress when you stop using them, so you can whittle away through the night without starting over.
