helical angle is 45 deg. shaft angles are 90 deg of each

Then they will always be both RH.
If they were in line i.e. shaft angles at 0 degrees then you need a right and a left to mesh.

Hi:
The left/right labels I believe are bugged and backwards..Ill fix that up. Also, you need to press
regen after changing the selection.. (Ill fix that too.. )
Thx
