Visual Workbench [Legacy Fabric]

About the Modification

The Visual Workbench mod fundamentally changes how you interact with crafting tables in Minecraft. Instead of items disappearing when you close the crafting interface, they remain inside the crafting table! This creates the feeling of a real work surface where you can leave materials for future projects.

When you break the crafting table, all items neatly drop to the ground - exactly as you would expect. But the most interesting part is that crafting ingredients are now displayed directly on the surface of the table as 3D models. This looks incredibly stylish and realistic!

Frequently Asked Questions

Question: How do I configure this mod?

Answer: In-game configuration has not been implemented yet. To change the configuration, enter a world and execute the command /config showfile <modid>, choosing either CLIENT or SERVER (depending on the mod). Then click on the file name (with .toml extension) that appears in chat to manually edit the configuration file in a separate editor.

Question: Does this work with crafting tables from other mods?

Answer: Unfortunately, no.

Question: Now that items stay in the table, clearing the interface has become tedious. What can I do?

Answer: Try the Crafting Tweaks mod by BlayTheNinth.
