Most of the rotation of parts are only around one axis.

I think this is not true, you can rotate any part however you like, since
there are a lot of parts which allow to connect other parts in various angles.
E.g. this thing with two plates (don't know how it's called in english) which
can be opened up to 270 degrees - the plates are connected with an axis.
Theire are also parts which connect two parts in an angle of 90 degree ...
