Aerody It's like 3 years old...

Below 1m/s this thing doesn't really drill asteroids... above 1m/s this thing simply breaks. It's very hard to handle I urge anyone tempted by the video the author posted not to download this contraption as effective as it might have seemed. I gave up after about 12 tries it just doesn't work. my best guess is that the drills went through an unfortunate patch.

is it possible to get the drill head design put up as well because for some reason my projector isnt loading the mining head it stops at the rotor

Could I get some instruction on how to use this? I keep breaking the front ;(

this is great!

Nice work !

I like the design, connectors in the head, good idea^^ and rounded corners...but it's requiring to keep on your keyboard.

Try mine, 1 touch to proceed.

same problem .... I tried diffrent speeds on the head also adjusting my approch ... it seem to work ok on smoother surfaced rock, but once it got in there the head got all chewed up... nice concept needs more testing
BigMos 4 Nov, 2014 @ 7:48pm 
the head stops spinnig as soon as it touchs asteroid
Spotter 1 Nov, 2014 @ 9:09pm 
Stunning... simply a piece of stunning artwork!

@ puddingking The pilot is expected to be reasonable about the forward thrust while drilling...
Puddingking 1 Nov, 2014 @ 4:23pm 
Drill heads on a spinning platform dont work for me, I destroyed this thing in 30 seconds. Great concept

IS THIS MENT TO ACTUALLY WORK ON ASTROIDS? I TRIED IT ON AN ASTROID AND IT DESTORYED THE CRAP OUT OF IT
Cynos 31 Oct, 2014 @ 3:09am 
That is an awesome drill, compact and efficient at the same time, great job!

boss :D
Buttermelon 29 Oct, 2014 @ 8:29am

profwaldone 29 Oct, 2014 @ 1:03am 
i love this. im going to build my own verison on this prinseble (probebly with a dubble head) and new advansed rotor
Biggdaddy007(Ger) 28 Oct, 2014 @ 1:38pm 
Fail shiff der test war fail der bohrkopf wird zerfetzt :(((((
Biggdaddy007(Ger) 28 Oct, 2014 @ 1:14pm 
Total geil dein bohrer
baute den nach nach meinem style und muss sagen FAIL ^^
der versuch ging nach hinten los
Effekt war als der bohrkopf den asteorieden traf naja standbild/crash

ansonnsten daumen hoch für den drill

Thanks guys. :)
Mind Goblin 28 Oct, 2014 @ 10:15am 
i want this because of.....reasons. Truthfully speaking though, this is fucking awesome. nice work.
war2k 27 Oct, 2014 @ 4:10pm 
you know with 01.035.xxx you now have advanced rotors with a conveyro going down the middle of it so you can transfer automatically now while still drilling :D
LethalOwl 27 Oct, 2014 @ 2:29pm 
That was.. Amazingly quick and effective.
Andyverse 27 Oct, 2014 @ 9:45am 
Oh no, forget it , i looked closer and those are bigship drills :P
Andyverse 27 Oct, 2014 @ 9:43am 
Itself is a big ship(because smallships dont have this cockpit) but the head has got smallship drills.

WHAT THE HECK!?!!
kokimimi 27 Oct, 2014 @ 12:59am 
like a TBM! good job! :)

@ BigMos Yeah that can happen if you crash it into the asteroid.
BigMos 26 Oct, 2014 @ 6:11pm 
DRILL KEEP BREAKING AND STops roatating
You won't vax me, Bill  [author] 26 Oct, 2014 @ 10:39am 
@ NrKy Thanks :) Yeah the idea was to make something look a bit realistic by not having 5000 drills and still be able to do big holes. The weight isn't too much beleive me, sometimes it moves while digging. The new version I made which you can find in the description is about 20% heavier and has more thrusters in order to keep it more stable.
Callistemon 26 Oct, 2014 @ 9:39am 
Only 45 drills for a circular cutout 11-blocks wide? Damn, very nice! 2.5kilotonnes is a bit heavy, though. :)
You won't vax me, Bill  [author] 26 Oct, 2014 @ 6:59am 
@morrae Nothing unrealistic here. I'm not stacking missile launchers or something like that. As long as you leave space for the flamme of the thruster it's possible scenario.
Plus the head of the ship is separated from the body by a rotor, which makes any thruster placed on it unusable. This is why i had to place them in the body, with the cockpit.
Prometheus 26 Oct, 2014 @ 6:39am 
This is Steinbrecher it brechs steine :D
morrae 26 Oct, 2014 @ 6:05am 
Thrusters inside ship? No thank you
Morphik 26 Oct, 2014 @ 12:18am 
TAW.net | NSIMS, you bring up the blueprint menu while looking at nothing and pressing Ctrl+B, then you select the ship you want and press Ctrl+V to paste it in.
mattig 25 Oct, 2014 @ 9:37pm 
This is a novel idea. I'm subbed to another massive drill ship, but it has a stationary head. I've never seen a ship with this design
You won't vax me, Bill  [author] 25 Oct, 2014 @ 12:43pm 
If you found it in the list you just have to double click it and paste using ctrl + V.
NSIMS 25 Oct, 2014 @ 12:27pm 
What do i do after f10?
I can't seem to spawn it.
You won't vax me, Bill  [author] 25 Oct, 2014 @ 11:13am 
@ TAW.net | NSIMS Either check in the mod lists in the world settings or in your blueprints menu (F10), i'm not sure. One of the two.
NSIMS 25 Oct, 2014 @ 10:56am 
How do i get it into my world?
Stone 25 Oct, 2014 @ 10:54am 
really really awesome
You won't vax me, Bill  [author] 25 Oct, 2014 @ 9:58am 
@The Biggkahuna Actually i just did that today ! :) This new version uses the advanced rotor and has been added several features : https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=331552338

A building that looks good ... but in the end it turns out to be a big shit not possible.
The thing I have done with this bullshit is putting him warhead around and regale me to blow it.
