Easy Anvils

Overview

Overhauled anvils with stored items, fairer costs, and no more frustrating repair penalties.

     

Easy Anvils makes anvils more convenient, less frustrating, and far more practical to use. 🔨 Items stay inside the interface when you close it, while the contents are rendered directly on the block for a more immersive experience.

The mod also reworks several vanilla anvil mechanics that can make repairing and upgrading gear unnecessarily tedious. Prior work penalties become much less restrictive, repair costs stay reasonable for longer, and several common actions are made more affordable. ✨

From repairing damaged anvils to free renaming and formatting support, this mod delivers a collection of quality-of-life improvements that make anvils feel better throughout the entire game.

- 🔨 Persistent Anvils: Items remain inside the anvil after closing the interface instead of popping back into your inventory.

- 👀 Visible Contents: Items placed in an anvil are rendered directly on the block in the world.

- 📉 Reduced Prior Work Penalties: Repairing and renaming no longer suffer from rapidly escalating prior work costs.

- ✨ More Affordable Enchanting: Enchanted book application costs are reduced and expensive operations are far less restrictive.

- 🏷️ Free Renaming: Renaming items can be performed without spending experience levels.

- 🎨 Formatting Support: Item names support formatting codes for custom colors and text styles.

- 🛠️ Repair Damaged Anvils: Use iron blocks to restore anvils and extend their lifespan.

- 💪 More Durable Anvils: Anvils are less likely to become damaged or break during use.

- ⚙️ Highly Configurable: Fine tune repair costs, prior work penalties, durability, and many other mechanics.

⏩ INSTALLATION REQUIRED ON CLIENT & REQUIRED ON SERVER

⏩ REQUIRES PUZZLES LIB TO BE INSTALLED (FABRIC & NEOFORGE)

⏩ REQUIRES FABRIC API TO BE INSTALLED (FABRIC)

⏩ REQUIRES FORGE CONFIG API PORT TO BE INSTALLED (FABRIC)

If available for a mod, configuration is possible directly from in-game using the mod menu (requires Mod Menu by Prospector to be installed on Fabric).

For manual configuration using an external text editor all files are found at .minecraft/config, named as MOD_ID-client.toml, MOD_ID-common.toml, or MOD_ID-server.toml, depending on the type of config. Not all types might exist for a mod, if any at all.

🌟 Thanks to tfarecnim and their Anvil Tweaks, and Anvil Repair mods, which this mod is largely based upon.

🌟 Thanks to elhertz for suggesting the anvil max enchantment level fix.

🌟 Thanks to Illios42 for suggesting the feature for allowing text to be stylized using Minecraft's formatting codes in the anvil and name tag interface.

ABOUT THIS LISTING

This page describes Easy Anvils by Fuzs. The description and screenshots are the author's own, imported from their listing on Modrinth on 26 October 2026: https://modrinth.com/mod/easy-anvils

Mythiq.net hosts no files for it. The download button goes straight to the release file on cdn.modrinth.com, so you are downloading from the author's own host, not from a copy of ours.

The download count, rating and comments on this page start at zero and count Mythiq.net only. The source's own figures are not copied here — they measure a different site, and a number that cannot be checked against our own ledger is not worth printing.

Requirements

Game versions
  • 26.1.2
  • 26.1.1
  • 26.1
MOD LOADER

This release is built for Neoforge. A mod built for one loader will not load under another — Fabric mods do not run on Forge, and vice versa.

GAME VERSION

Built for Minecraft 26.1.2, 26.1.1, 26.1. Minecraft mods are tied to an exact version: a 1.21.4 build will refuse to load on 1.21.5.

DEPENDENCIES

Check the author's listing for required libraries before you start the game — a missing dependency shows up as a crash on launch, not as a warning.

Installation

1. Install Neoforge for the Minecraft version you play, if you have not already.

2. Download the .jar with the button on this page. Do not unzip it — a mod jar is installed as it is.

3. Put it in your mods folder:

Windows — %APPDATA%\.minecraft\mods

macOS — ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft/mods

Linux — ~/.minecraft/mods

4. Launch the game with the Neoforge profile selected.

ON A SERVER

Anything that changes world generation or gameplay has to be installed on the server as well as on every client. Client-side visual and interface mods do not.

UPDATING

Replace the old .jar rather than adding the new one beside it. Two versions of the same mod in the folder is a crash on launch.

This release downloads from cdn.modrinth.com, not from us, so there is no checksum to compare against. Scan the archive before you unpack it.
