Arcane Bore

Thauminomicon Entry:

You have discovered a device capable of extending the range and power of an Excavation Focus. Of even greater use is the fact that the machine can do so without your constant supervision. You merely need to place it into a specially constructed base, point it in the correct direction with a wand and apply a redstone signal. The arcane bore requires two things to function. The first is an Excavation Focus placed in its leftmost inventory slot. Any enchantments applied to the focus will also alter the functions of the bore. Secondly you need to place any kind of pickaxe into the rightmost slot. The material of the pickaxe will have little effect on the operation on the bore, but the greater its durability the longer it will last. Like the wand, any enchantments will also be applied to whatever the bore mines. Placing a jar of perditio essentia near the bore (within 8 blocks) will greatly speed up the rate at which it mines, but will consume 1 point of perditio for every 16 blocks mined. An arcane bore may only be placed above or below an arcane bore base. Any items mined will be ejected from the base in the direction its nozzle is pointing. It will eject into an inventory if possible. The direction can be changed with a wand.
