The custom workbench replaces the plain crafting table with a menu that holds both vanilla and server recipes in one grid. Open it with /workbench (alias /craft), or right-click any crafting table.
In short
The custom workbench combines vanilla and server recipes in grids from 3x3 to 6x6. The 5x5 grid unlocks at phase 5 and gates minion, composter, and breaker recipes.
Opening the workbench
Right-clicking a crafting table opens the custom crafting GUI at a 3x3 grid. The command /workbench opens the same menu hub, where you can browse recipes, view your profile, and craft.Custom and vanilla recipes share one grid. Because the server engine is not bound by vanilla rules, a recipe can ask for a full stack in a single slot, for example 64 diamonds, which vanilla crafting cannot express. When more than one recipe fits the grid, cycle between them with the up and down arrows in the GUI.
Grid sizes
The workbench maps a block type to a grid size. The 3x3 crafting table is open to everyone. Larger grids are gated by permission.
Grid
Access
3x3
Open to everyone
4x4
Needs workbench.extended.4x4
5x5
Needs workbench.extended.5x5
6x6
Needs workbench.extended.6x6
On the main menu, the 3x3 quick-craft tile is always available. The 4x4, 5x5, and 6x6 tiles show a locked tile until you hold the matching permission.
The 5x5 grid unlocks at world-phase 5
The 5x5 grid opens automatically when you reach world-phase 5. At that point you are granted the workbench.extended.5x5 permission and the 5x5 tile unlocks. The minion, composter, and breaker-pickaxe recipes are all shaped 5x5 recipes, so phase 5 is the gate for crafting them.
Browsing recipes
Open the recipe browser from the menu or with /workbench browse. Every recipe is visible from the start, so you can inspect a recipe before you can craft it. Recipes are grouped into eleven categories: All, Tools, Weapons, Armor, Food, Building, Redstone, Decoration, Brewing, Minions, and Other.The Minions family is collapsed into a single folder tile inside the All view so it does not flood the list. Right-click a recipe to favourite it. Non-vanilla recipes can be deleted with shift-click. Recipes can also be exported and imported as WB1 share codes.
Recipe packs
Server recipes are defined in YAML recipe packs. Two custom recipes ship in the workbench itself, both shaped 3x3.

Spawner Breaker
Wooden pickaxe named Spawner Breaker, unbreakable, Efficiency X
Shaped 3x3
Compressed Cobblestone
One compressed cobblestone block
Shaped 3x3
The Spawner Breaker needs the permission workbench.recipe.spawner_breaker. Compressed Cobblestone is granted only during the /tutorial crafting step. The larger minion, composter, and breaker recipes are registered by the OneBlock system at runtime rather than shipped as YAML, which is why they appear in the Minions category once you can craft them. Supported recipe types are shaped, shapeless, furnace, smithing, and stonecutting.
