All Older E had to say was that (and every line was prefaced with "I think") he was traped 1x, alone, and for 24 hours and he thinks it was some where in New Boston, He also said he thinks GF worked in the mines after the imfamous tunnel closure. But doen't remember where. ALso as a side note he told me he used to work making dynamite when I was just born. God help the guy who hired him--what was he thinking??????PS your christmas card was returned to us-we must have a wrong address

Pumps moving oil, water and lava.

These machines will dig holes in the ground or move liquid automatically, so you can do other things while they work.

Landmarks

Used to define areas for machines to operate in when the default area just isn't right.

Quarry

The Quarry will excavate a nine by nine block area by default. You can change the size of this area using landmarks. The Quarry will continue to mine until it reaches bedrock or lava. Generating electricity with the power of the sun’s rays (“solar power”, “photovoltaic power”, or “PV” for short) is pblisose due to the photovoltaic effect. “Photo” comes from the Greek for “light”; “voltaic” refers to the production of electricity and is a variant of Italian physicist Alessandro Volta’s name.To illustrate how PV works, let’s follow the flow of energy through a small grid-tied residential system:The first step in the process occurs when rays of light from the sun strike the cells within PV modules (modules are commonly called “panels”). As the light energy hits the photovoltaic cells, electrons are excited and begin to flow. Multiple cells are connected in one module, and several modules are connected together to form an array, all harnessing and summing the flow of this electric power.

Miner

Unlike the Quarry or the Mining Well, Miners use electricity from Industrial Craft 2 (IC²). Miners have the same ability as a Mining Well, but it needs a mining pipe that you crafted (preference of 64 pipes) in order to dig down. A Miner also needs a Drill or Diamond Drill. Miners also have the ability to be upgraded with a OD-Scanner or an OV-Scanner to mine sideways to reach out for ores.

Pump

A Pump will move liquid - including oil - from where it started to tanks or engines.

Builder

Although not meant for mining, builders can be effective tools to assist with mining. Unlike other methods, these do not automatically pick up items. However, they're faster at removing blocks than a quarry at up 350 blocks a minute - easily achievable with an energy link. Templates can be configured to mine like a quarry, or to create a strip mine.
