The version and limits of the original source apply to every entry. Quantities and requirements belong to the named variant; do not add alternative recipes or opening lines together.
These options share a planning task. Their differences stay visible in the individual rows and calculators.
The snapshot targets desktop Terraria 1.4.5. Paint, furniture, food and cosmetic recolor pages are omitted. Ingredient-group members are alternatives, not all required together. The planner does not assume material-saving bonuses, recursive crafting or a complete boss/unlock progression.
Plan your scenario
Using this reference
Before gathering materials for Tool-making components, choose the recipe or variant you actually intend to make. Alternative recipes are separate shopping lists: combining their inputs would overstate the cost. The quantity you enter is the number of finished items you want, so a recipe that produces several at once may leave a small surplus.
Start with the ingredients you have the least of. A large stock of one material cannot make up for a shortage of another. The list covers the final crafting step; if an ingredient is itself crafted, open its reference separately before planning a gathering trip.
