📖 About:

Visual Workbench makes items put into a crafting table stay inside. Breaking the block drops everything on the ground, just like you'd expect. Oh, and crafting ingredients are also rendered on top. Really fancy if you ask me!


Crafting now looks really fancy		Modded crafting tables work too (Forge only)


Floating item rendering option		Flat item rendering option

💡 FAQ:

Q: How do I configure this mod?
A: Editing configs directly in-game has not yet been implemented. Instead when in a world run the /config showfile <modid> command by choosing either CLIENT or SERVER (depending on the mod), then click the file name (ending with .toml) that appears in chat to be able to manually edit the config file in a separate editor.

Q: Does this work with crafting tables from other mods?
A: Unfortunately no.

Q: Now that items stay in the table, clearing the interface is so tedious. What can I do?
A: Try Crafting Tweaks, a mod by BlayTheNinth.
