Trowel

A smart building tool that randomly places blocks from your inventory — perfect for natural-looking paths, walls, and floors.

What It Does

  1. Fill an inventory row with different block types (e.g., stone, cobblestone, andesite)

  2. Shift + right-click to select which row to pull from (Hotbar, Row 1, 2, or 3)

  3. Right-click to place a random block from that row

Each placement consumes one block from your inventory.

How to Craft

I = Iron Ingot, S = Stick (like the File but with an extra iron)

Tips

  • Great for paths, floors, and natural-looking builds

  • Automatically skips incompatible items (doors, beds, signs)

  • Uses durability per placement

  • Supports Mending and Unbreaking enchantments

  • Repair with iron ingots in an anvil


Repair

Both tools can be repaired:

  • Anvil + Iron Ingots — Standard repair

  • Combine two tools — Merges durability with a 5% bonus

  • Enchanted books — Add Mending or Unbreaking
