Usage
Connecting components
When two mechanical components are connected by a shaft, any rotational force provided to either component will also be provided to the other component at the same speed. As such, if both components provide stress, this can cause the machine to become overstressed.
Mechanical belts
A Mechanical Belt must be placed between two shafts. The shafts must be horizontal, parallel to each other, and perpendicular to the belt itself, and they must be aligned horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. Please note that you cannot have any other diagonal angles other than 45°. Additionally, no obstruction can exist between the two endpoints with the exception of other shafts.
A Brass Casing can be placed over any segment of a mechanical belt, and this includes segments that contain shafts.
