What is Framed Compacting Drawers?
Framed Compacting Drawers is part of the pack, and this pack ships version 1.18-4.1.0 of it. It has been in the pack since version 2.3 or earlier, so it's a long-standing part of the mod list rather than a recent addition.[1]
Unverified I couldn't confirm from the available material what the mod's blocks do, how they are crafted, or where they fit into the pack's progression. There is no stored platform description or in-jar guidebook for this mod. Check in-game or the mod's own page before relying on any details.
Unverified No quests in this pack involve this mod, and it is not on the ATM Star path, so nothing in the pack's questbook will guide you to it.
How do you get started with Framed Compacting Drawers?
2 parts
Same as in the All the Mods - Gravitas 4.0 guide
The quickest way to get going is to follow the pack's own quest. It asks you to get Framed Drawers 2x2, the Framed Drawers 2x2, and it unlocks after another quest in your quest book.[2]
The quest is a quest in "?". The recipe below is for the item it wants. The recipe dump lists it as a shaped crafting mod recipe.[2][3]

The mod also has smaller layouts, each with its own crafting recipe in the pack. Pick the one that fits the space you are building.[3]
- Framed Drawer is the single Framed Drawer.[3]
- Framed Drawers 1x2 is the 1x2 version.[3]
- Framed Half Drawer, Framed Half Drawers 1x2 and Framed Half Drawers 2x2 are the Half Drawer versions, in the single, 1x2 and 2x2 layouts.[3]

Trim, compacting and controller items
Once you have a few drawers, the mod's extra blocks each have their own recipe: Framed Trim, Framed Compacting Drawer, Framed Drawer Controller and Framed Controller Slave. The compacting drawer, controller and slave recipes each take an item from a tag rather than one fixed item.[3]

How does Framed Compacting Drawers work?
3 parts
Same as in the All the Mods - Gravitas 4.0 guide
Framed Compacting Drawers is an add-on that gives you framed versions of storage drawers. The sources I have for this pack only cover the crafting recipes, so this section is short. I'd rather leave out the mechanics I can't confirm than guess at them.[3]
The building blocks
- Drawer blocks come in a full and a half size. The full ones are Framed Drawer, Framed Drawers 1x2 and Framed Drawers 2x2. The half ones are Framed Half Drawer, Framed Half Drawers 1x2 and Framed Half Drawers 2x2.[3]
- Framed Compacting Drawer is the compacting variant.[3]
- Framed Drawer Controller and Framed Controller Slave are the controller pair for drawer networks.[3]
- Framed Trim is the trim piece.[3]
All of these are made with shaped crafting recipes that come from the mod itself. The sources don't show the pack changing any of them.[3]
Crafting the controller setup
The controller and the slave each have their own recipe, so you can make them separately.[3]

Unverified The sources don't explain how the controller links to drawers, how compacting converts items, drawer capacity, upgrades, or how to automate with hoppers or pipes. There is also no config file for this mod in the pack. Treat all of that as unverified until you test it in-game.
How do you progress through Framed Compacting Drawers?
4 parts
Same as in the All the Mods - Gravitas 4.0 guide
In this pack, Framed Compacting Drawers has no ladder of material tiers that the pack data shows. What you get is a set of drawer forms, each with its own in-pack crafting recipe, plus one quest that points you at the first of them.[2][3]
The quest
The only quest for this mod is a quest in "?". Its task is to obtain a Framed Drawers 2x2. It unlocks after the quest with the id 6C3A96EFF44E71A2, so you need to clear that one first. The quest has no title in the pack files.[2]
