EVE: I buy a truck and a can
At Bruce’s suggestion (co-worker who plays EVE) I’ve purchased a Giant Cargo Container and an Industrial ship (Iteron) to hall it around. I still use my Vexor to mine with, it has three mining lasers, then drag the ore from my cargo hold to the anchored Giant Can which has 5 times the space. Once the Giant Can and Vexor are full, I warp back to station, switch to my Industrial ship, and run back to the Can to empty and return the ore to station. It seems like a lot of extra work, but it keeps me in space mining longer, and is more efficient.
I may upgrade to a slightly larger Industrial ship (Iteron II) as, even with cargo expanders, the one I have can’t quite hold all the Giant Can’s contents. I may also purchase more Cans as placing them is the hardest part. Cans aren’t expensive, and spreading a few around the system might be even more efficient. Even after purchasing all the skills and equipment I’ve made a good return on investment and have close to 9 million isk. Who knows what the future will bring.
