Description
Ore-Bound
Have you ever wanted to be able to bound ores to tools and armour to give them more durability?
With Ore-bound, now you can!
Just grab a smithing table and put in a standard iron tool or armour (more bounded tools and armour coming soon), then add a gemstone, now you have a tool or armour piece with a higher durability.
Ore Blocks & Gemstones

Tools & Armour

Bounded Tools & Armour

Apart from bounding ores to tools and armour, with Ore-bound, you can create Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Amethyst and Turquoise tools and armour with balanced specifications just below diamond tools and armour.
Check the "Images" section to see crafting recipes.
Splitting off mod parts
After Ore-bound 1.3.1, the mod will be split into seperate mods which don't fully reflect that of Ore-bound. These will be Disc-bound (new music discs), Decor-bound (new decoration blocks) and Tweak-bound (useful crafting tweaks)
