Metallic Tinkering is a thingpack for Tinkers' Construct that adds all* the materials supported in the base mod, but require a separate mod to obtain.

Any comments, criticisms, & requests are welcome.
Possible Questions:
Can I use it in a Modpack?
- Of course, just remember that Json Things is required, which is only on CurseForge.
Can you add other materials?
- I cannot guarantee it, but you can suggest almost any materials. If it were to make sense in this pack, it could be included.
Any current plans for the mod?
- Armor trim compatibility.
- Adding future compat materials if Tinkers' Construct makes them.
- Making existing materials support other tool parts. For example, Aluminum is only used in bows and armor, but I could make it support tools.
- Adding custom materials.
- Changes to ore generation and textures.
- Compatibility with other mods. Requesting support for another mod is encouraged, as I want this to be readily usable for modpacks.
Anything that is NOT going to be added?
- Treated Wood. Getting it is too complicated to be included. If someone explains a simpler way of obtaining it, then it could be added.
- Things requiring Java code.
- Backports and/or Fabric. I will only make and maintain versions 1.20.1+ on Forge and NeoForge only.
