I noticed all the turtles only work with diamond, why not make them work with other kinds of tools too?

AFAIK only farming one works with gem hoe?

As for suggestion, I don't agree. I think turtle that can break blocks is very powerful item and it should not be cheap.

With the way it stands right now I agree with you, but once they implement durability to the tools that the turtles use then I think this suggestion is a good idea. They could just scale the rate at which the items take damage to match the regular tools. So a turtle with stone tools would need to have their tools replaced much faster then one that is using diamonds.

Oh and gemed tools should work for all the turtle types. I've used the axe and pickaxe.

I definitely agree with this. Turtles breaking every possible block with the exception of bedrock for an unlimited amount of time is definitely overpowered. I think just plain durability should be added, as well as the tools only being able to mine certain items.

Durability is planned. Only breaking certain blocks isn't (real tools don't work that way).

try breaking a tree with a hoe, or mining a rock with a sword, or even better a spade, a nice lovely blunt spade to do my mining please!

yeah, if you can break stone with a spade when why can't you break stone without a tool? that's how it works in MC :)/>/>

Sorry, I should have clarified. I meant that a stone tool could not mine diamond or obsidian, and trying to mine a stone block with an axe would result in a more broken tool.

Obviously, someone needs to make a peripheral crafted out of zombie flesh to give turtles arms.

I see turtles with tools… now surely they can't just magically float there and rotate themselves every now again, otherwise that wouldn't be realistic!
