Rechiseled: Create

Overview

Rechiseled: Create is an integration addon that connects two popular mods: Create and Rechiseled. It does two things. First, it registers all of Create's existing decorative blocks into Rechiseled's chiseling system, so you can freely swap between variants using the Chisel. Second, it adds over 100 entirely new block variants that Create doesn't include on its own, such as Polished Cut stone types, Small Brick patterns, and a full suite of window designs for every wood type.

The mod also introduces the Mechanical Chisel, a kinetic block that works just like Create's Mechanical Saw but for chiseling recipes. This means you can automate block transformations on conveyor belts, opening up factory-scale production of decorative blocks. You can browse every block and recipe this mod adds using the Items and Recipes tabs on this page.

Prerequisites

This mod requires both Create and Rechiseled to be installed. You'll need a working Create setup with rotational power (Water Wheels, Windmill Bearings, or similar) to use the Mechanical Chisel. For manual chiseling, you just need Rechiseled's Chisel item. If you're already building with Create's decorative blocks, Rechiseled: Create slots in seamlessly and you can start using it immediately.

The Mechanical Chisel

The Mechanical Chisel is the only functional block this mod adds, and it's the centerpiece of the automation side. It behaves almost identically to Create's Mechanical Saw: it's a kinetic block that requires rotational power, accepts items from belts and funnels, and outputs processed items out the opposite side. The difference is that instead of sawing logs or cutting stone, it performs chiseling conversions.

At only 3.0 SU of stress impact, the Mechanical Chisel is very cheap to run. A single Water Wheel can power several of them simultaneously. When a block enters the machine, it takes about 50 ticks (2.5 seconds) to process at base speed, though higher RPM speeds up the conversion proportionally. The processing speed scales with the absolute rotational speed divided by 24, clamped between 1x and 128x speed.

Without a filter, the Mechanical Chisel picks a random valid output from the chiseling recipe group. This can be useful if you want variety, but for consistent production you'll always want to set a filter. The machine also respects Create's bulk cutting config setting, meaning it can optionally process only one item at a time from a stack.

Stone & Mineral Block Families

The bulk of this mod's content is new decorative variants for Create's stone and mineral block families. For each material, Rechiseled: Create adds two new pattern types: a Polished Cut variant and a Small Brick variant. Both come with matching Stairs and Slabs, giving you a complete set for building walls, floors, and rooflines in a consistent style.

Vanilla-Based Stone Families

Andesite, Diorite, and Granite are the three vanilla stone types that Create already provides Cut and Cut Brick variants for. This mod adds Polished Cut and Small Brick patterns with full stair and slab sets. These blocks share the vanilla stone properties: 1.5 hardness, 6.0 blast resistance, and require a Pickaxe to harvest. The chiseling recipes also include Create's Layered and Pillar variants, so you can freely swap between all options.

Create-Exclusive Stone Families

Create's unique stone types, including Asurine, Crimsite, Limestone, Ochrum, Scorchia, Scoria, Tuff, and Veridium, all receive the same treatment. Each gets Polished Cut and Small Brick variants with stairs and slabs. The base stone block itself is also included in the chiseling recipe group, so you can convert raw Asurine directly into Cut Asurine, Polished Cut Asurine, Small Asurine Bricks, or any other variant in the family.

Deepslate, Calcite, and Dripstone are vanilla blocks that Create adds Cut variants for. Rechiseled: Create extends these with the Polished Cut and Small Brick patterns as well. The Calcite and Dripstone families even include the raw vanilla block (Calcite and Dripstone Block) as a starting point in their chiseling group.

Rose Quartz Variants

Rose Quartz gets special treatment with six entirely new decorative blocks that go beyond the simple Polished/Small Brick pattern. The full set includes Rose Quartz Bricks, Chiseled Rose Quartz, Crushed Rose Quartz, Polished Block of Rose Quartz, Rose Quartz Squares, and Rose Quartz Tiles. These are all part of the Polished Rose Quartz chiseling group, which also includes Create's own Small Rose Quartz Tiles and Rose Quartz Tiles.

These Rose Quartz blocks have higher hardness (3.0) than the standard stone variants and share the Deepslate sound type. They're excellent accent blocks for builds that already use Create's Rose Quartz aesthetic, giving you much more variety for floors, walls, and trim.

Window Variants

Windows are where this mod really shines for builders. Create already adds one window style per wood type, but Rechiseled: Create adds eight new window patterns for each of the nine supported wood types: Oak, Birch, Spruce, Dark Oak, Jungle, Acacia, Mangrove, Crimson, and Warped. That's over 70 new window blocks in total.

Window Styles

Each wood type's window family includes a selection from these patterns: Bars (thin vertical bars), Covered (mostly opaque with small openings), Diagonal (angled crosshatch), Large (single large pane), Panes (small square panes), Rounded (arched top), Slim (thin horizontal bars), Swirling (decorative spiral pattern), and Tiles (small square tiles). Not every wood type has every pattern, but each has eight variants to choose from.

All window blocks are connecting blocks, meaning they visually merge with adjacent windows of the same type to create seamless multi-block window surfaces. They share the Glass sound type and have 0.3 hardness, matching Create's default windows. They also don't occlude light or suffocate entities, so they work as proper transparent building blocks.

Glass Variants

The Glass chiseling group ties together vanilla Glass, Create's Tiled Glass, Framed Glass, Horizontal Framed Glass, and Vertical Framed Glass into one recipe family. While these blocks all already exist in Create, Rechiseled: Create's contribution is connecting them through the chiseling system so you can instantly swap between any Glass style without crafting a new block. This is especially convenient when you've already placed Glass in your build and want to try a framed look instead.

Complete Chiseling Recipe Groups

Every block in this mod belongs to a chiseling recipe group. Blocks within the same group can be freely converted between each other using the Chisel or Mechanical Chisel. The mod registers 25 recipe groups in total, covering 14 stone/mineral families, 9 wood-type window families, the Rose Quartz family, and the Glass family.

Each stone family's recipe group typically includes: the base stone block, Cut variant (with stairs and slab), Cut Brick variant (with stairs and slab), Polished Cut variant (with stairs and slab, new), Small Brick variant (with stairs and slab, new), Layered variant, and Pillar variant. That's a lot of options for every single material type, and switching between them costs nothing.

Automation Tips

The Mechanical Chisel integrates seamlessly with Create's logistics. It accepts items from Conveyor Belts and Belt Funnels on any side except the bottom, and ejects processed items in the direction determined by the rotational direction of the shaft. Reversing the rotation flips the output direction, which can be useful for routing designs.

For a simple automated setup, place a Mechanical Chisel facing up on a belt line with a Funnel feeding blocks in from one side. Set the filter to your desired output variant. Blocks will be chiseled and continue along the belt to a collection chest. If you need multiple variants from the same material, use a Brass Funnel with filtering before each Mechanical Chisel on the output side to sort.

Empty-handed right-clicking on a Mechanical Chisel that is facing up will eject any items currently inside it, which is useful for clearing jams or retrieving stuck blocks during setup.
