I don't know if i am missing something but when i go to switch the mold from ingot to any other all it does is place the ingot mold on the carving table instead of changing it.so i can't make a plate mold for thaumium plates
I have the same issue been looking everywhere for instructions. you're supposed to be able to continue right clicking with the mold and change what mold it is. that does not work, the second time you right click it places the mold on the carving table
NEI shows other ways, I make them with the metal press from Immersive. You can make them with the forge hammer or a metal former. To get the Correct plates for the machine frames you craft 4 of the plates you get into an exosuit plate then craft that plate again into the plates you need. There is very minimal usage of flaxbeard in the pack, I really donno why they included it.
