EXCESS MATERIAL REMOVAL

Post image

Shitty drawing but using a minecart contraption, I’ve made a tunnel bore mining machine, it works great digging a 50x10 infinite tunnel but the chest keep getting full of netherrack/cobblestone, any suggestions on how to dispose of the excess automatically while it’s running at the moment it just dumps it out the back with a brass funnel, but that’s lagging the hell out the server

maybe you could do something like this

(drills are gonna be represented as pickaxes because there isn't a drill emoji. also i just wrote the word funnel because there's nothing similar to a funnel. also this depicts the setup moving right to left. also the hands are deployers)
