    Hi Gahtao here :disshappy:
    This is my first mod so bear with me.

    Remember to rate if you used my mod :)

    This mod currently adds:
    Chisels
    -Copper Chisel, craftable at the anvil
    -Silver Chisel, craftable at the anvil
    -Golden Chisel, craftable at the anvil
    -Platinum Chisel, craftable at the metalwork station
    -Diamond Chisel, craftable at the metalwork station
    Mauls
    -Copper Maul, craftable at the Anvil
    -Silver Maul, craftable at the Anvil
    -Golden Maul, craftable at the Anvil
    -Platinum Maul, craftable at the metalwork station
    -Diamond Maul, craftable at the metalwork station
    Iron-Grip versions: craftable at the anvil
    -Copper Chisel/Maul/Pickaxe
    -Silver Chisel/Maul/Pickaxe
    -Golden Chisel/Maul/Pickaxe
    Steel-Grip versions: craftable at the metalwork station
    -Platinum Chisel/Maul/Pickaxe
    -Diamond Chisel/Maul/Pickaxe
    Randomly generated Items as loot
    -Screwdriver
    -Electric Chisel
    -Thor's hammer on a stick
    -The Fish on a Stick
    -The Reverse Maul

    The chisels work exactly the same as a pickaxe except it's one-handed, mines a little faster than their pickaxe equivalent and has 1x1 radius (when you hold shift it becomes a 2x2 radius) instead of a 3x3.

    Mauls also work like pickaxes. The only difference is that they are slower, but hit more, plus they have higher durability

    You install this mod just like most other mods:
    >go to your mods folder within the starbound folder (C:\...\starbound\giraffe_storage\mods)
    >place the .zip file there
    >extract it in that location
    >delete the .zip
    >enjoy! ;)

    I'm currently adding more chisels and balancing them more (please comment if you think they're unbalanced and I'll look into it). I'm also trying to make them less OP on trees, but I'm not really sure how I'm supposed to do that (any help on this from more experienced modders would really be appreciated :)).
    Any feedback would be appreciated.

    Special thanks to:
    Crisium: for coming up with the idea of steel handles.
    sayter: for making chisels possible in the form of loot, he really helped and explained a lot.

    I hope you guys enjoy this mod and here:

    Great idea, and very well-made. One thing, though: the Mauls are very slow to the point that the blocks almost regenerate completely before the tool hits them again! It would be a lot more efficient if it had a slightly higher swing speed.

    The spawning and leveled loot chisels in random chests that are in line with player progress was a great add, and works great it melds well into the game as if there from the start. I can't wait to see what new ideas you come up with and or add to this one next, Keep up the great works Brah.

    Great idea ! Looking up for more mods from you, if they will have a certain quality level I could give you an mod idea that I once had but newer done and if I would try it myself it would end up looking like poop.

      Thanks for the review :) You're the first to review my mod, so you upped my average to 5 stars, so really, thank you :)
      If you want to give me a mod idea you can just PM me, I'd really appreciate it. Keep in mind that I might also be unable to create it. But really, really, really thank you all the same.
