[1.12] How to create a new crafting table using custom recipe JSONs

[Mimic216]

So, I'm still fairly new to Forge modding, and I was trying to figure out how to create a new crafting table (with distinct recipes from the normal ones) using the JSON system. In particular, I wanted to be able to include a "recipe level" where more advanced recipes require upgraded versions of the table. I know about factories, and as far as I can tell I've implemented it fine. However, what I can't figure out is how to get the table to find recipes of the new type; everything I've found specifically looked for IRecipes, and all the tutorials I've found use the old system. I've tried looking through vanilla code, but because I'm still new to it it's a bit overwhelming. Any help?

Yes. If you are fluent in Java or another similar language, post more specifics, actual code you're using would be good. Otherwise, you're being too ambitious and you should try something simpler. This task is not suitable for someone new to Java.
