The Needleback is the miner you carry when the claim is still a rumor. Its narrow rotary head takes thumb-thick cores from rock or ice without turning every nearby fracture into a personal emergency. Pitframe paints the torque collar slag-orange because crews kept grabbing the hot end in bad light. The sample sleeve smells faintly of cutting oil no matter how often it is washed.
LC4 industrial cutter; transit caps required outside a licensed claim.
