In Core Keeper, you’ll sometimes come across large boulders of minerals which will prompt you with the message “I need a drill for this.” Drills are large powered digging tools that allow you to harvest the huge amounts of resources in boulders. But how do you build a drill and how do you power this machine?

The first step of getting drill-ready isupgrading to Scarlet Ore crafting. To do this you’ll need to have defeated the first three bosses of Core Keeper and powered the core. Next, you’ll need to harvest and refine25 Scarlet Ore, 15 Iron Ore, and 10 Tin Ore. Use this to construct aScarlet Workbench.
