Ever found yourself swimming in unused iron swords or stacks of leather boots you'll never wear? Uncrafting is a lightweight datapack that lets you break down your equipment directly in the crafting table — no mods, no special blocks, no commands.
Simply place any supported item in the crafting grid and recover the raw materials it was made from. Weapons, tools, armor, redstone components, and miscellaneous items can all be deconstructed. It's the recycling system Minecraft always needed.
Compatible with vanilla Minecraft. Drop it in your datapack folder and play.)
A complete list of crafting recipes can be found on the datapack wiki. Uncrafting wiki
