gollark: How do you configure "all damaged items"?
gollark: Wait, you can do that?!
gollark: Oh, to have enough resources to not care about a half-damaged bow taking up a 63rd of an expensive 64k cell...
gollark: In my experience it's refused to work due to items not being able to go back into storage once they're crafted.
gollark: Except if you have no space then crafting will probably also be dead.
