Brings back the classic BuildCraft quarry for modern Minecraft. _(part of the RetroRig mod suite bringing back BuildCraft elements)_

Place a Quarry block and it gets to work, automatically constructing a frame around the dig area, then mining everything inside down to bedrock. Drops are ejected above the machine or routed into connected inventories.

Construction Torches let you define a custom dig area. Place two torches at the same Y level within 64 blocks of each other and the quarry will respect those bounds.

Powered by Forge Energy. Compatible with other tech mods.
