sometimes unused end of shaft in cogweel looks ugly
i think there should be some feature to hide them
with wrench or automatic

covers for gear box would be awsome too.

well cogwheels somewhat fixed with new updates and addons fix this issue too, but loose gearbox end still looks ugly in some of the builds

I know this is an old post but currently playing Create: Above and Beyond, and the aesthetic nightmare that is cogs are quite painful (saying that as someone who loves clockwork, just look at my profile image on github) - so adding to this, it could perhaps work sort of like fences or walls, where if there's nothing to connect to, it's shorter?
Something like this I think would do wonders- the shaft only being "complete" when there's actually a shaft, gearbox, machine, etc. to validly connect to.
