[1.6.4] Exchanger recipes

[SilverBullet99]

I have tried to make an item (exchanger) that can change items and blocks in other  items and blocks  like ee3 but i can`t figure out how to do that because it consumes the exchanger as well as the items.I have looked in other mods source codes and searched for tutorials but cannot find a good one for 1.6.4. If anyone can help me with a good tutorial that would be awesome.

How does it consume the exchanger item?

Is this exchange performed via a GUI?

Would you provide your current source code please.

I just use it in a crafting table with the item that i want to transmutate.I tried using it as a tool that takes damage when I craft with it but it creates 1024 pages of the same recipe when I look at the nei recipes.
