HeadCraft is a simple plugin that allows you to craft player heads and change its name to get a specific head of a player. You don't have to use commands. You can pack an item in a player head by right-clicking with a player head on an item in your inventory. Now you can right-click with the item pack in your helmet slot. This way you can put almost every item in the game on your head without using commands.

Changelog
Version 1.1.3
If you have any custom player heads from this plugin or other plugins/datapacks, you can convert them back to normal ones in a grindstone, so you can reuse them. Just put the player head in a grindstone.
You cannot use this feature in the 1.14 versions of the game!
Version 1.1.1
Instead of using an anvil, you just need to right-click on an item with a player head to pack it.
You are prevented to place an item pack, so you don't lose your items.
You can not pack items if you are in creative.
Fixed:
- The amount of items is correctly calculated if you are packing an item. You won't lose items by not using an equal amount.
Items you can not pack are:
- shulker boxes
- player heads
- bundles
- enchanted items
Data that now will be stored in an item pack:
- custom name
- material
- amount
- lore
Other types of data will not be stored for now, like enchantments.
Version 1.1.0
Added ability to pack items in a player head, so you can put every item that's in the game on your head. You can do this by placing a player head in the first slot of an anvil and an item of choice in the other slot. Once you place the head in your helmet slot it will unpack and change to the item you had put in.
Use an equal amount of items in the first and second slot. Otherwise, some items get lost.
Some items do not show in the output slot, but they are there. Just pick up the invisible item and put it in your inventory. Then just reopen your inventory.
Just click on your helmet slot. In creative, you won't get the head back.
If you're in survival,
Be careful. Items with extra data like enchantments and custom names will not be packed in the item head, you will lose the data from those items!! This will be fixed in a future update.
Version 1.0
HeadCraft is a simple plugin that allows you to craft player heads. Once you change the name of the head, it will change to the head of that player's skin.
