Is it possible to remove the recipe book from the Smithing Table GUI?

Not currently, no. Where do you recommend the button go?

Perhaps we should move the armor stand preview a little to the left and a book will fit on the right? Or maybe try to make the button with the book smaller. Or use it instead of a hammer.
It seems to me that it would be correct to make several display options in the modmenu settings (including the ability to selectively disable the recipe book in GUIs separately)
