Blasting Recipes
cant see these in game but they work i swear
- blast copper, iron, gold, diamond, and netherite armor (horse and nautilus too!) to get ingots back rather than nuggets.
- blast oxidized & waxed copper items to bring it back to its original stage (golems and copper chests too!) (you can also craft the original stage back into copper ingots)
- blast polished or smooth blocks to unpolish them
- blast cracked blocks to uncrack(?) them
- blast (some) brick blocks (not Bricks, like stone bricks) into their base block
- blast concrete back into concrete powder!
basically when in doubt pop it in the blast furnace it might do something tbh
