Notes: Special thanks to Artemis Rouge for some BD miner design recommendations that were followed on this build. Also, when operating, the cross hair will change to red when in proper drill range. Run the drills at that location until the cross hair turns white then move forward again until cross hair turns red. Repeat until you are satisfied.

Also, this type of miner is meant for asteroid mining only and typically not allowed to mine on planet surfaces.
