Not Enough Pickaxes
This is my first mod, so don't expect perfection. Give me any suggestions, errors, criticism, or bugs in the comments.

Not Enough Pickaxes is a mod that adds 22 new pickaxes to the game. Some are there to look nice, whilst others have their own unique purposes and abilities.
Recipes for the pickaxes are unlocked once you obtain the resources so you don't have to guess any recipes.
There are many pickaxes to talk about, but I'll only name a few.
- Emerald Pickaxe
This pickaxe is made out of Excavated Emeralds, which can only be found by directly mining emerald ore. If you manage to find some of these rare gems, you can make an emerald pickaxe which acts as a very efficient diamond pickaxe that drops 0-2 extra of iron, gold, or diamond.
- Copper Pickaxe
At first, this may seem like a copy of the iron pickaxe, but after a few minutes of mining, this won't seem so true. Over time, this pickaxe will degrade to become worse than even a wooden pickaxe.
- Lapis Lazuli Pickaxe
This pickaxe is like a stone pickaxe, except every time you mine, you will get an XP orb. If you keep repairing this pickaxe, this becomes a great way to farm XP.
