The Grand Design

The Grand Design is a tool that allows you to see the dimensions of whatever is selected, place any color of wire or actuators, and remove them. The Grand Design can be used at any part of the screen, regardless of block placement range.

When right clicking with the tool, a small menu will pop up at the cursor's position with six different buttons in a radial pattern. The outside buttons can be used to select which wire colors (including actuators) can be interacted with, and the middle button will toggle between placing or harvesting the designated wires.

Tips

 * This item is an effective way of dealing with traps, such as explosives and boulders, and serves as a far more compact way of storing wiring tools. In total, creating the Grand Design costs 15 gold. It can be made post-Skeletron, permitting a Goblin Army has been defeated, and the Goblin Tinkerer has been rescued. The Mechanic also must have been rescued from the dungeon.
 * When dismantling naturally-generated traps, a Wire Cutter may be preferable, as the Grand Design cannot take advantage of the smart cursor and therefore has trouble with diagonally-placed wires.
