Silky sacks are a modifiable bag item. They start with no modifier slots and 9 inventory slots, and for every upgrade and ability slot you receive through extra modifiers, they can get additional slots.
Shortbows are a new bow variant. They let you charge into battle at nearly full speed while drawing back, at the cost of limited arrow accuracy and velocity.

Laminar armor is a mid game defensive armor set made from wool and slimesteel. It is close to diamond quality and starts with overcast, 2 upgrade slots, 5 defense slots, and 0 abilities. Also can receive overgrowth in exchange for a defense slot.
Some people really love shovels. While Tinkers' Construct provides mattocks, excavators, and pickadzes, the classic round shape is a fan favorite. Shovels are weaker than their digging counterparts, but make up for it in extra upgrade slots.
The halberd is a broad reach weapon, with the inherent reach trait. Its also good for charging at your enemies using the speedy modifier.
Middle tier shield variant with 5 defense slots, 2 upgrade slots, and 0 ability slots. Can be dyed, embellished, and receive overgrowth like the armor set.
Hematite is a new tier 4 tool material alloyed from obsidian, blood, and debris. It grants 2 upgrade slots at the cost of big debuffs. Veinline is a composite of hematite on string, granting 1 upgrade slot at the cost of accuracy.
Amethyst Staffs are a staff variant created in the anvil from bow parts, allowing it to receive both variable ranged stats along with ranged traits.
Makeshift armor is an early game armor set with protection comparable to leather. It has just a helmet and a chestplate, and receives wooden embellishments.
Description
Tinkers' Things is an addon for Tinkers' Construct that contains no Java code (if you do not believe me, check the GitHub source). This is made possible through the mod Json Things, which allows you do add custom items, fluids, blocks, creative tabs, and harvest tiers through JSON files.
This mod serves two purposes:
- It is a fully playable survival friendly Tinkers' Construct addon adding a lot of new tools and armor to the mod.
- It serves as an example for those wishing to create Tinkers' Construct datapacks and no-Java code addons.
