## Usage

Axles can be placed in three different orientations (along the x/y/z axes, like logs).

![Axles](https://commoble.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/images/morered/axles.png)

Axles will connect to mechanical blocks that they touch. [Gears](@morered:oak_gear) can be used to change direction.

Axles have a very low inertia and are an effective way to transfer mechanical power across moderate distances.
