📋 About This Mod
Someone on the Offical forums was complaining about the Miner's pick displaying an Axe Shadow, next time I was playing, I too noticed this and decided to fix this... Therefore I imported the model, and added the ShadowBox... I also created an alternate verison of the miner's pick, more along the lines of how I see a pick looking like (image included in zip)
