Advice
Upon crafting a mining turtle for the first time, you will be given a manual, do not throw this away! It might be useful to you even after your first read to go back to for instructions
Always place your mining turtle on top of a hopper, as you may lag your world by sending every item it mines to one spot where it wont despawn for the next 5 minutes
The Reinforced Drill, unlike the electric drill, requires fuel to use, always carry coal on you while using it, or just switch to a electric one.
Drills can be used as weapons! They don't do much damage but have no cooldown and amazing knockback! But if you manage to pin your enemy to a wall you can shred them to bits using the drill! The electric drill twice as much damage as the Reinforced Drill
Check out the wiki! Its full of useful advice like these and gives a bit of a look into the technical details aswell
