Thank you all for replies and and clarifying follow ups.

So I have been making some forays into mechanization and my attempts to make helve hammer to go brr with extra RPM run into a hard stop. Do I need more power? How much? Can I even do gear train shenanigans?

You are better of digging straight down and hitting the deposit that way. Also, how did you lose hundreds of pick's durability?

Precision placement.
