Bored of digging through tons of dirt/soil and gravel and relying on pure chance?
Want to find resources quickly, WITHOUT defeating the need to explore abandoned mineshafts/huge underground caverns to get them?
Can't locate a nearby ender portal frame/abandoned mineshaft (despite that it's only behind a 7 blocks wall)?Skeletons irritating you, but can't find the nearby mossy spawn room?
Then you need...
The Configurable Handheld Resource Detector!

Summary of how it works:
Configure the device by right clicking it.
Place a raw sample of the resource you want to detect (e.g. Lapis lazuli->(Lapis lazuli block/ore)) into the indicated slot on the screen.
You can copy over the resource data from other detectors by placing them into the slot.
Use the options in the GUI to customize the device further.
The device can detect blocks from 5 meters away when held or upto 8 meters if it's pointed at a block that it's set to scan for.
(The device may be left idle in the main inventory, but than it will only have a detection radius of 4 meters).
The closer you get to a detectable resource block, the more rapidly the device will click.
Likewise the more accurate you are in pointing the resource detector, the more rapidly the device will click (upto 8 meters)

The device can detect blocks from 5 meters away when held or upto 8 meters if it's pointed at a block that it's set to scan for.

A custom GUI is triggered by right clicking it:

I'm open to suggestions for improvements, so please feel free to post them.
HAVE FUN!

Have something to say?
invention...
With this upgrade you can add a laser to the detector, which will point at a searched resource.
I haven't had that much time to mod Minecraft lately, :(. However that's definitely something to add later on though.
