i have a question for the miners.
what do you need to learn/use the secure cans i see floating in roid belts.
i am asking because i now have a hauler and want to use my frig to mine and fill a can and then use the hauler to well haul :)
my lil probe can mine faster than the hoarder but my load is nowhere near the size.

You need the achoring skill for secure containers but you can jetcan for free...
Jetcanning is where you jettison one unit of mineral and it floats in a can that will hold up to 27,000 units. You can fill it and then go back for your hauler. Only problem is it is not secure and someone can come up in an indy and take as much as they can hold. Also jetcans only last about 2 hours so you have to refreash them. Do a search for jetcan on the forums and you will find a bunch of info.
Hope this helps

1) Get industrial ship, get secure cans.
2) Jet the cans, and anchor them.
3) Mine into the cans, then bring the indy later to scoop up the minerals inside of the cans.
4) Profit! - Proud member of the [23].

Remember that you can only anchor in 0.7 or lower.

also, those secure cans don't hold that much. I think the Giant one only holds 3000, and it's half a million for one in Heimatar. So you will need a few of them.
However, they do compress your cargo even more, so you can technically hold more in your ship, if it's inside the can.
I'm not sure what branch of skill "anchoring" is under, i just had to search for it from the market window.

home base is in .5 sec so i will be set there. i am a new player and i dont have alot of battle tactics so i mine in the frig untill rats show up then i bail.
just looking for a way to maximise my time as my hold is only 405.7 on the probe and over 5k on the hauler. only 1 miner on the hauler mines so damn slow heh
