Cheap Anvils
I don't know my version or loader

CheapAnvils is a lightweight Paper 1.21.11 plugin that adds a more affordable anvil recipe. Instead of the expensive default recipe using three iron blocks and four iron ingots, CheapAnvils lets you craft an anvil with just one iron block surrounded by six iron ingots (pattern: III / ABA / III). This reduces the iron cost from 31 ingots to only 15 ingots – a huge saving for early-game or large projects. The recipe works in any crafting table, appears in the recipe book, and requires no configuration. Simply drop the plugin into your server’s plugins folder, restart, and enjoy cheaper anvils. Perfect for survival servers or anyone tired of mining endless iron.
