Mechanical power is a mechanic that allows for the powering of different machinery through the harnessing of renewable energy (such as wind) via structures such as the windmill. Currently, it can be used to automate querns for milling, helve hammers to work iron blooms or smith metal plates, and pulverizers to crush materials into their powdered form. 
Although it can be used to power a single machine, with a series of axle and gear connections, you can make what’s called a power train. This allows for the connection of multiple machinery at a time, working in tandem.

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
A {{ll|windmill|windmill}} is a multi-block structure used to harness wind power and transform it into mechanical power. There are many possible designs for a windmill but factors to consider include: 
* Location windspeed
* Height - for wind and clearance for sails
* Accommodation of various power train designs and equipment
* Amount of power needed to drive attached equipment
Detailed information on the windmill can be found on the {{ll|Windmill|windmill page}}.

</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
To build complex and efficient power trains it's important to understand relation between ''speed'' and ''torque'', and how they are affected by ''resistance'' of a given mechanical system.
*'''Resistance''' defines how much rotational energy the system needs in order to continuously operate. If there is not enough torque to counteract resistance, entire power train will lose speed or even come to a complete halt. Each element of the system, such as axles, gears and transmissions, has some resistance. However, machinery doing useful work tends to contribute the most.
*'''Torque''' is a measure of rotational force and directly counteracts resistance. Adding more torque to the system can help it overcome the resistance of connected machinery, allowing faster operation. However, as soon as resistance is completely overcome - there is no point in further increasing the torque.
*'''Speed''' defines the rate at which machines in the system perform their job. Increasing the speed allows for faster operation, but only if there is enough torque to sustain it; otherwise most of the speed will be lost to resistance.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
===Large wooden gear===
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
Conversion of torque to speed and vice-versa can be achieved with the help of large wooden gear. Central shaft and rim of the gear can both be used for input or output. Direction of the power flow defines the conversion.
* Using shaft as input and rim as the output allows to increase the speed by a factor of 5, at the cost of reducing the torque by the same factor;
* Using rim as input and shaft as the output allows to achieve the opposite effect, increasing the torque by a factor of 5 and decreasing speed by the same factor;
* Using rim as input for multiple power sources allows to combine the torque from those sources, while resulting speed will be defined by the fastest input;
* Using rim as input for single power source allows to distribute that energy to multiple outputs, conserving speed and torque.
As evident from example of complex gear setup on this page, multiple gears can be used together to achieve desired conversion and distribution of energy.

A helve hammer can help the player in processing iron blooms and blister steel, as well as making plates of any metal type. It requires mechanical power to operate and there is no practical way to automate the in- and output of materials, since it adheres to the same principles as manual smithing.

The pulverizer allows players to crush certain stones and minerals into fine powder to be used for {{ll|Steel Making|steel making}} or {{ll|Dye|dyes}}.
