// This is a readily available general tying equipment.
// For any mod recipe that previously had {Tying equipment} requirement
// I recommend assessing if {*cord} 'Cord' would be better:

// Length assumes splitting a reasonable branch in two
// Also results in shorter yields as a primitive method
