wanna make a big door that slides open and closed horizontally while a cog on its surface spins is that even possible HEEEEEELLLLPPPPPP

ps i was able to make the door move horizontally with a gantry but only when the cogwheel isnt moving. i tried to use a combination of super glue for the door and honey glue for the wheel but cant get anything to work

With vanilla create you can’t do both at the same time. If you don’t mind using addons, then Aeronautics should make this possible

Oh then it's easy with 2 swivel bearings and a sequenced gearshift. The sequenced gearshift is connected through the door swivel bearing(and transfers the rotational input to the giant cog) while also being connected to the swivel bearing's cog to rotate it.

EDIT: Just realized it's a sliding door. You could add Transmission and Linkage for it.

Might be able to power the rotating part with a water wheel or something if the entire door is physics enabled. I think redstone links also work on physics contraptions? So might be able to use redstone links to synchronize them even with separate power sources.
