## Usage

Clutches can face in any of six directions.  While powered with redstone, they can connect to other mechanisms similarly to a [Gear](@morered:oak_gear).

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

When not powered with redstone, clutches will not connect to anything.

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

Like gears, clutches will jam if you try to rotate them in two different directions at once.
