Shaktool

Shaktool,Super Metroid Nintendo Player's Guide pg. 16Super Metroid Players' Guide pg. 67 also known as CA15,Super Metroid: The Official Nintendo Game Guide pg. 51 is a robot located in Maridia.
==Description==
The Shaktool helps Samus get the Spring Ball by swinging its arms with mounted excavating gears in order to break through a tunnel of impenetrable hardened sand. The Shaktool has no appearances outside of a single chamber in Super Metroid. 
The Shaktool is a very mysterious machine, but the crude design suggests that it may have Space Pirate origins. The Shaktool can be destroyed by shooting at the razor-like implements that form its "feet". These same implements will damage Samus if she runs into them. Strangely, if Samus uses the Speed Booster to run at the Shaktool, she will go right through it without damaging herself or the Shaktool.

:"Knock out the wall with a power bomb and then wait - a strange burrowing creature by the name of Shaktool will tunnel through the rest of the rubble, allowing you to pass."
==Development notes==
The Shaktool is internally named DORI within the game data.
An unused attack exists in game code, which has the Shaktool fire a slow projectile travelling in a straight line from its cannon, dealing minor damage to Samus if it hits her. It does not seem to purposefully aim its shot anywhere.https://tcrf.net/Super_Metroid#Shaktool_Attack
==Trivia==
*This enemy resembles Heavy Mole from the Kirby franchise in functionality, as both destroy walls with razor arms.
**This enemy's movement style also resembles a Bramball from the Super Mario franchise.
