So I've found out that the max number of pistons I can have attached on one another before it breaks off is 3, that is with one extra piston and 27 drills, 33 conveyors (various shapes), and 3 small cargo. So now I've got a few Q's

Post Body

How do I make an efficient drill that just keeps going?

So far I'm just constantly grinding the drills and piston, etc. down and adding more conveyors to increase length. I did try putting four pistons at the end of each other, then the cargo containors, conveyors and drills, but when all four pistons are fully expanded, it breaks.

What settings should I put the pistons on?

Right now it's -0.1 velocity with inertia dampeners on.

I've seen people saying they can put the velocity to around -0.04, but when I try it just rounds up or down to -0 or -0.1
