Casting Obsidian
Allows you to right-click obsidian to gather it as long as it's surrounded by sand. The bottom block can be sand or a hopper for a little automation.

Tired of mining 5ever for obsidian? This mod allows you to cast your obsidian in sand, which you can just pull out with your hands! Be sure to let it cool first!
The mod checks for sand being on each side and one below, but will allow you to place a hopper below for a somewhat automated functionality.
Why? Idk, this is my first mod. It just makes sense to be able to pull obsidian out of sand.
YES! You MAY use this in your modpacks. NO! You may not steal my work or code!
