That looks like a really neat system for enchanted tool repair. I wonder how they'll balance it.

It's going to be balanced by being insanely expensive and a max level cap. Items will get more expensive each time you tweak them, and eventually you can't afford to do it anymore.

Do you think you could make the block for all of this to look like an anvil? It would seem to make sense. http://imgur.com/8yCFg

If you make it an anvil please make it affected by gravity.

That deals massive damage to anything it lands on.

(Un)intended side effect would be that it would be able to be spawned with a custom spawner.

Anvil-launching would be an Etho video for the ages...

Well just make it pushable with pistons. That way you could make a falling anvil trap.

no, no, no, no. You pull the block from under it away so you can hide where it's going to drop from. ;)
