Having a silly problem with a Tinkers Construct tool...

[Someguy]

So a while ago (a long while, in relative terms) I made myself a Tinkers Construct scythe. I used it a lot, for clearing a bunch of leaves or something. It broke at some point. I even had moss on it, but I kind of intentionally broke it, I figured it would just stop working until the durability auto-repaired itself back up. It didn't. I put it aside for a few days, and was working on other stuff.

Now I want to repair it, using whatever material I made it from originally... and therein lies the problem. I can't remember what I made it out of, and when I put it in the tool station, it doesn't tell me. Visually, it *looks* like bronze, but I tried slapping some bronze ingots in there and no joy. I've tried putting in ingots of various other TC ores, but... nothing doing. I'm not even sure if that's the way to repair a TC tool, I read that somewhere.

I don't want to make/break another tool just to check out the repair process so I can figure out if I'm doing it right... anyone know offhand if that's how it's done, and any ideas on how to figure out what material I made my scythe out of?

I told you it was a silly problem.

a pic might help us determine what it is but it sounds like it might be copper.

Pics would indeed help, though another method would be to compare the speed of the tool where available, as well as damage and if it has any extra attributes (such as reinforced). That said, moss does make it hard to tell.

UPDATE: Ok so I think I got it... the screenshot shows "Reinforced I" and that plus mining level of redstone tells me it's iron.

But I could have sworn that wasn't there before... also it seems to have repaired itself now. The difference is that before I was playing in the 152wgt pack, and I just imported my saved world into the FTB Unleashed pack.

So... there you have it. Sorry for any wasted brain power.

Sure, here's a screenshot. Thanks in advance. I thought that "Mining Level: Redstone" might be a clue, but I think quite a few materials have that level. I think.

You used Bronze.

Def looks like bronze to me as well. Also, the auto-repair only repairs dur if the tool isn't completely broken. If it's completely broken no matter how high the dur goes you still need to repair it with an ingot.
