Default Driving a vertical shaft

Or ball chain. McMaster lists it in sizes up to 1/2"...

Interesting. Described as used to "... keep tools with machines, keys
with chucks, as well as gas and dust caps with tanks." But with a
tensile strength of up to 200lbs, maybe it could be used for power
transmission. Question of how long the connections would last with
constant flexing under load.
