Reclamation

This mod allows some of the material used to create tools to be reclaimed and recycled, plus a small selection of other items. Tool materials are reclaimed by combining them with a specific tool in the crafting grid, usually (but not always) a chisel.

- Flint tools yield flint shards, a newly added item, when reclaimed. They cannot be used to make new tools, but they can be heated and converted to calcined flint.

- Other stone tools can yield crushed stone when reclaimed, but only if the Stoneworks mod is also installed.

- Metal tools yield metal bits when reclaimed. This is balanced to normally return about 60% of the metal that it cost to cast or smith the tool in the first place. (This mod does not add a use for steel bits, which currently have no use in the base game.)

- Bone arrows (and some other bone items) can be reduced to bone shards with a hammer, which can be turned into bonemeal with a quern.

- Wood tools and some wood items yield wood chips. Some bamboo items yield bamboo chips. Wood chips and bamboo chips can each be processed into pulp by differing methods, and the pulp can be used for papermaking.

- The mod does not add glass shards or pottery sherds, but maybe it will in a future update?

- Compatibility with tools and weapons added by the Obsidiancraft (1.6.1, compatibility with 2.0.0 soon), Reinforced Tools, and War Scythe mods.

I would personally love to see a more holistic item dismantling mechanic implemented in the base game, since the options realistically achievable with a mod feel a little bit limited and incomplete, but hopefully this is mod is better than no dismantling at all.
