Originally built for Scibrick displays last November, the drill was never in my possesion long enough for photography. I’ve had it for about 4 months now, and here we are.

This was built with playability in mind. The cabin is composed mostly of old-style hinge 4x4 plates, which can be flipped open for fig-manipulation. The boom raises into place, and the drill shaft can extend a bit, about 1.5x the height of the cabin.

In most mining & exploration activities, earthbound or not, various drills are used for core sampling & production blasting. Here we see the drill chipping away at Teddy Welsh’s Lunar Cheese Mine, which proves that cutting the cheese doesn’t always involve explosions.

As always, PLMKWYT - I live for your approval.

I like the extending drill. I think it’s a pretty good design, and it incorporates more playability than Fradel’s mom.

The F-Dog has been nothing but cordial to you.  And this, THIS.... is how you
repay him.  Well done.  But, forewarned is forearmed, Fradel's mom will rock
your world in Ms. PacMan.  She suffers no fools.
