Drills

Drills are a type of Hardmode tools and an alternative to pickaxes. They have shorter range than pickaxes, however they mine out blocks much faster. Note that these only account for their base use speed, and do not account for other speed modifiers.

Tools (hammers, axes, pickaxes, drills, chainsaws, jackhammers, etc.) use the item's actual usetime (as apposed to the animationtime) to perform their jobs. In the case of the Mythril Drill, the usetime is 10 and the animationtime is 25 minus 1 or 24. This is most noticeable when using high level pickaxes and hammers as they will hit tiles/walls several times per swing (swing is based on animation time).

Types
There are currently 2 different drills available in Spirit, all of which are Hardmode-exclusive.
