@peaceman, thank you
peaceman  [author] 7 Jan, 2022 @ 11:51am 
Ah no, it is part of the Internal combustion engine mod. But you will only need oil if you got that mod :D
peaceman  [author] 7 Jan, 2022 @ 11:50am 
The oil drill is part of the conveyors and pipes mod, but it works similar to this drill
Pegas519 7 Jan, 2022 @ 11:39am 
is oil drill part of this mod?

would love to see a video on it

Thanks i got it now it takes 2 Steam Engines for the small 3 for the larger and if you have them set up right you can even hook up the refinery to it on the same connection.
peaceman  [author] 7 Dec, 2020 @ 2:47pm 
steam engines
Primelock 7 Dec, 2020 @ 2:03pm 
12+? first you said 2 -_-
peaceman  [author] 7 Dec, 2020 @ 1:00pm 
you need a lot more power. You need steam engines or like 12+ windmills
Primelock 7 Dec, 2020 @ 12:12pm 
I also attached 4 windmills to it but still it wouldnt start moving.
ohmaster74 7 Dec, 2020 @ 12:01pm 
can you please post pictures or a video on how to build it i had power going to it but it still was not producing anything. I had 4 windmills going and still nothing.
peaceman  [author] 30 Oct, 2020 @ 3:50pm 
yes, will add that soon
Jash 30 Oct, 2020 @ 3:40pm 
Can you add coal ?
peaceman  [author] 29 Oct, 2020 @ 1:46pm 
you need to select what inventory it picks stuff from. The conveyors have buttons for this
Lordm00m00 28 Oct, 2020 @ 3:28pm 
When ever I try to hook up a conveyor to the drill it takes the drill head out and not the ore. Is there going to be a compatibility for the conveyor mod?
Jash 12 Oct, 2020 @ 5:55am 
I did get it working had to start tearing it down then repaired it, then it started mining.
Jash 11 Oct, 2020 @ 5:11pm 
So far it has not mined anything, have it setup with the engine running at 90%, is there something I am missing?
peaceman  [author] 6 Oct, 2020 @ 10:41am 
At full power (but you never reach that, most will be 90%) you mine 900 ore per hour with the low power drill and 2250 with the high power drill
Primelock 6 Oct, 2020 @ 10:30am 
Ahh like that.

what is the rate of these drillheads? How many ores will it mine per minute/second?
peaceman  [author] 6 Oct, 2020 @ 10:08am 
It can actually work at a slower rate. Its like all mechanical machines if you don't have enough power they just run slower. I think with the low power drillhead it will run with 2 windmills
Primelock 6 Oct, 2020 @ 10:01am 
Will there be a weaker and way slower version of this thing? Which will be powered by windmills.
