Create: Minecraft Mod Wiki>NonaWax added Train Station to arm interaction points. I dunno if that's something to be added to the history, as stations were interaction points when they were first released, if that logic makes sense? |

| Name | Ingredients | Crafting Recipe |

| Mechanical Arm | Brass Sheet + Andesite Alloy + Precision Mechanism + Brass Casing |
Usage
With the Mechanical Arm in hand, right clicking valid inventories in a 5 block radius will select them to be taken from, or deposited to if the inventory cannot be taken from. The arm will remember the order the blocks were chosen in. From there, further right clicking will toggle between taking from and depositing to. Left clicking will deselect the block. The Mechanical Arm can then be placed by right clicking on a block, and powered. The range of the arm can be adjusted in the Config.
The arm can be powered by a Cogwheel or similar blocks.
