Mining Rig Mk I No Mods

Description
Been awhile since I dabbled in small grids, but I am back again to introduce this little beauty.

A close to scale semi-tractor and trailer with a deep mining rig capable of reaching depths up to 31.5 meters, this babies got plenty of cargo space for all that ore she cranks up. With a backup reactor the trailer is ready to drop and go. Couple timer blocks and programmable blocks in there, one for the truck, one for the trailer are at your disposal for whatever you wish to fill the LCDs with. While not the easiest thing to weld from a projection, she comes survival ready with an airtight cab and oxygen generator, everything is piped up through the cab on the truck. Trailer has an underside discharge for easy offloading, just drive over a collector, line it up with the underside camera, start it up and kick back.

Wheels are set up pretty well but may need tweaking depending on just how heavy a load you are hauling.

Please NOTE, before drilling set the parking brake, then toggle the collector on and off as for some reason if the trailer moves it stops collecting!

If you like this build and want to see more go ahead and click that thumbs up button, feel free to comment below, I love to hear back from you guys, happy trucking!

The dept might be out of date because each shaft can go down to 10 meter.I have a base setup,but this setup will help more for me

Nice, however the wheels trailer hitch need to be on block hicher and the wheels on the trailer need to be a corispoding one block higher. to clear the truck tires.

Just checking as it seems there is a few variations, the M985 with the self loading folding crane on the tail and a trailer with it?

i couldnt get the pistons to clip together at all without a block space in between them. and yes i think that truck would befit your mobile crane trailer quite nicely or maybe build it on top of the m985 as a complete straight truck. but i think having it with its own trailer would be pretty cool
