DBX - Armed Surveyor

So, feeling a bit on the bored side this AM, I started playing with Coriolis and came up with this:

https://coriolis.io/outfit/diamondb...i2i2f.Iw1-kA==.IwBj4zlEg===?bn=Armed Surveyor

Just a thought: If you take a mining laser instead of one of the medium bursts, you can gather at least common materials in rings.
