Helical gear help
Helical gears are available for order in left-hand and right-hand configurations. If I have a left hand and right hand gear on one shaft, and corresponding left and right hand gears on perpendicular shafts, will the perpendicular shafts rotate the same way or in opposite directions?

Thank you!
