## Preamble

We're going to be using two mods to get wireless crafting access to **all** of our inventories, across dimensions (in both the overworld and the nether). 

We're going to use two mods for this: **Sophisticated Storage** and **Tom's Simple Storage**.

### Block Descriptions

In this section I'm going to try to explain the blocks we're using. Please refer below when I use the terms elsewhere.

#### Sophisticated Storage

Barrels and Chests: 

**Storage Controller**: This is a block which serves as your "connection point" to all your different inventories. I think how the mod handles multiple inventories is to take multiple, separate chests and "merge them together" into one "combined" chest. This is that chest. Works with Storage Links.

**Storage Link**: It's a plate, which when attached to a storage block, will provide a connection point to the Storage Controller. Will connect to any adjacent storage blocks (so if you place all your barrels/chests beside each other, you only need one link). Maximum length is 15 blocks.

**Storage Tool**: Connects Storage Links to Controllers. Change the function by scrolling with your wheel while Sneaking.

#### Tom's Simple Storage

**Inventory Connector**: Works similarly to the Storage Controller above ("a big combined chest"), but will work with the wireless broadcasting.

**Inventory Cable Connector**: Similar to the Storage Link, but requires a cable to be run between inventories to link them.

**Inventory Cable**: Used to link inventories together.

**Inventory Trim**: Pretty much a cable, but is a full block. Can be painted to make it look like other blocks. Can connect to cables.

**Paint Kit**: Paints Inventory Trim to make it look like other blocks.

**Crafting/Inventory Terminal**: Plates that you put onto **either** Inventory Connectors **or** Storage Controllers to access their inventories. Crafting Terminals allow you to craft directly from those inventories (generally better for our purposes here).

**Advanced Wireless Terminal**: An item that you link to a Crafting or Storage Terminal in order to wirelessly connect to their stuff.

#### Vanilla Minecraft

**[Beacon](https://minecraft.wiki/w/Beacon)**: An item which creates a buff in an area around it. When you build a pyramid underneath it, it gets a stronger effect based on the size of the pyramid.

**[Pyramid Blocks](https://minecraft.wiki/w/Beacon#Pyramids)**: Iron blocks, gold blocks, emerald blocks, diamond blocks, and/or netherite blocks. Make **full** squares under a beacon to make the beacon stronger.

## Step 1: Getting your inventories linked

The first step is to get all your inventories linked together, and then accessing them via a Storage or Crafting terminal.
