Changes the appearance of brushes to look more like a pickaxe.
In the Minecraft snapshot 23w07a, brushes were introduced. However, at that time, they were crafted using two sticks and three string, in the same pattern as a pickaxe! While this was changed soon afterwards, I remember reading a comment somebody made, calling it a string pickaxe. Fast forward a couple of months later, I decided to make the brush look more like a pickaxe! Enjoy!
Thank you, whoever posted the comment calling brushes "string pickaxes."
