Also the vanilla HopperBlock and HopperTileEntity classes are a good source of information, since the hopper can detect when item entities land on its top

Yeah, i know you don't want to make a hopper, but you want to detect if an item entity is on top of your block, which is something that the hopper block does and that you can take inspiration from...then after detecting if the items are on top of you block apply your logic to craft them into another item

Documentation here: https://mcforge.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tileentities/tileentity/ and here: https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Block_entity

I would not be able to explain it better personally.

 

EDIT: you may actually not need a tile entity to achieve what you want
