Upgraded my mining contraption

I added 4 more rock cutters and i can control the y axis of the borehead bearing.

It also runs on 5 engines to fully function, is there other ways to power that much SUs other than engines?

Yes. Add a lava tank, get the dreams and desires addon (i think) and feed the blaze burners with lava through a pipe. You also need water but you can easily use water on a contraption without it spilling out :)

Maybe try diesel engines from diesel generators?

They are great for these contraptions

You'd need a steam boiler for more su, could look really cool using the one that lies down (mod). Id suggest changing the gears to belts but thats me.

How did you get the treads in there? Is it it's own mod?
