The quern must be powered by connecting the incoming axle on the top or bottom of the quern. The quern cannot be powered by connecting the axle to the side of the quern. For maximum efficiency, connect the power input axle to the bottom of the quern.

* '''Output:''' Placing any item in the output slot will block the output, causing product items to drop out of the sides of the quern. To collect items, hoppers can be fed into chests. Place the hopper at the level of the block supporting the quern, not next to the side of the quern itself. If the hopper, or any block for that matter, is placed next to the side of the quern, this placement will prevent the quern from producing items}. Further, if the quern tries to output an item but the side is blocked, it will restart grinding the item. This means placing one block adjacent to the quern will reduce efficiency by 1 quarter. | * '''Output:''' Placing any item in the output slot will block the output, causing product items to drop out of the sides of the quern.

==Smithing== | === Smithing=== | ||
For mechanized smithing, the windmill is attached to a [[helve hammer]]. With a full complement of sails, the helve hammer will function, albeit slowly, at wind speeds as low as 30%. It can help the player in processing iron blooms and blister steel, as well as making plates of any metal type. | For mechanized smithing, the windmill is attached to a [[helve hammer]].
