-I'm not sure if it's relevant but my pickaxe skill was always 1-2 points above my mining skill when these data were collected.
== Other things that affects mining action timer ==

The current wiki page under "Notes" at the bottom talks about what affects mining speed. One thing ive noticed is that as I mine, over time my first action take more and more time.
At first I thought this was water but sitting for some time afk so my water bar gets low and comparing my first action (with full stamina) with full and half empty water bar makes no difference to my first action timer.
I have observed also if start mining with a full food and water bar at I have a 3 second action timer. As time goes on while mining, my first action (with full stamina) timer gets longer, seemingly as my water or food bar dcreases. If I drink water, it goes back to 3 seconds.
Could this mean that water/food bars and fatigue are related to action timer?
