What does Simple Drills add?

Simple Drills

This is a simple mod that adds Tier Based Drills.
There are 6 Drills in this mod (Copper, Gold, Iron, Amethyst, Diamond, Netherite, Sculk, Emerald, Multi Drill)
All the drills do is mine in a 3x3 tunnel to make strip mining or excavating easier.

Modify the radius the drill mines with the gamerule "drillRadius" (Versions 1.6 and above)
