• If used on a locked chest, teleports the player to a large version of the chest room, where they must survive one to five waves of enemies. Surviving the enemies will unlock the chest.
• If used on a locked door or trapdoor, unlocks the object for free.

• Picking up Drill increases the chance of finding the other Payday 2 items, [Loot Bag] and [Clown Mask] .
• The amount of enemies and waves is determined by the chest quality, usually having less enemies and waves when used on low-quality chests, and up to 5 waves for S quality chests. D tier (brown) chests will have a single wave, with 2-4 enemies. B tier (green) chests can have anywhere from 2-4 waves. They usually have at least 4-5 enemies per wave, but can occasionally spawn 6. The Drill is capable of charging itself from the enemies it spawns. Large amounts of enemies or waves can fully recharge the Drill, allowing it to be used again.
• When the Drill is used in the Keep of the Lead Lord , there's a chance for it to spawn Bullet King 's chancellor, who will chase the player even if left unharmed. The same applies for Old King's chancellor when used in the Abbey of the True Gun .
• It is possible for pickups to spawn after completing a wave, including other chests. If the player wants to keep them, they must grab them before they finish all the waves; otherwise, when the room returns to its normal size, the pickup may vanish, if the walls close over it. If it is in the center of the room it will remain.
• The Drill cannot be used on any chests that spawn after clearing a wave in the special drill room.
• The Drill cannot be used on the roof of the R&G Department if a chest spawns there after the boss is defeated.
• Using the Drill on a fused chest will extinguish the fuse. However, the chest will appear without a fuse in the enlarged room.
• The room will only return to its normal size once the player is inside the radius of the original room.
• The Drill cannot be used on the lock that requires the Gnawed Key .
• When the Drill is used during a Challenge Mode run, each new wave receives its own room modifier(s).
• The Drill appears to, on occasion, fail to render a complete arena, leaving some areas black or untextured; however, the collision remains intact.
• The Drill can be used on Brother Albern 's chest. The lock will fall off of it, but it still can't be opened without speaking to him.
• Chests opened by the Drill are rendered indestructible.
• If the player attempts to use [Trusty Lockpicks] on a chest and it fails, the Drill cannot be used on the chest.
• If a chest spawns in the Resourceful Rat's Lair , the drill cannot be used. However, it can be used to unlock the special rat chests after the boss fight.
• The generated room is considered a different room, so leaving items on the floor before using the Drill will result in them being stolen by the Resourceful Rat .
• If the Drill is used on a Synergy Chest , it will spawn a random item or gun.
• If the Drill is used on a Mimic , the drill will consume its charge and the lock will fall off, but the Mimic will immediately be provoked without creating a Drill area.
• If you use the [Bloodied Scarf] to teleport into the area close to the chest after the completion of combat, it is possible to become soft-locked within the room with the chest gone and unable to teleport out.
• The item is not officially unlocked until you make it to the next chamber, or until your run ends.

Pick it up from a shop, either by stealing it or angering the shopkeeper.
