I'm not too worried about connecting the rest of the mines to make one big cube but here's where I'm starting to get worried. I want to build it tall, essentially tall enough so that the top will actually start to fade away in the fog so that I could put black blocks on the ceiling to make it look pitch black. I've gone from bed rock to the tallest mine and that's only about 32 blocks tall. What's a fast way to clear out an area of about 200 by 500 from the surface without spending a good hundred hours? I've already fallen to my death a good four times, too.
P.S. If you're wondering how many diamonds I've found in this mine, it's about 50 in just the past week.

There isn't any way to get through that many blocks without digging it out yourself. If your interested in using mods, get Single player commands and just select 2 points and replace all the blocks in between to air. If your going to be doing this legit, TNT is the only viable solution. If your short on gunpowder, you might want to consider making a mob trap so you can get a good amount of it.
