Horizontal[]

The horizontal orientation has a base of three wooden planks in a row, with a furnace next to the middle plank. On top of the furnace place a chest. Next to the chest and above the center wooden plank place the Gold block. Continuing in the same row as the chest and the Gold block, place the block you wish to use as your drill head (either an Iron block or a Diamond block). Finally, place a lever on top of the Gold block.

Vertical[]

The Vertical orientation has a base of the drill head (either a Iron block or a Diamond block) with one wooden plank on either side of it. On top of the drill head place the Gold block. Next to the Gold block, but going perpendicular to the wooden planks, place the furnace and the chest, one on one side of the Gold block and the other on the oposite side. Finally, place a lever on top of the gold block.
