Indeed it would since it seems that defining axes involving multiple  
models is buggy.  It is creating an axis but is mispositioning/ 
miscalculating it.  In your case it is so badly positioned that you  
can't see it in the view you have.  I will be fixing this either today  
or in the next day or two.  Regardless I will be opening a ticket in  
our bug database with you on the cc list so you will know when it gets  
fixed.

In the interim you can work around the problem by combining the models  
into one (either with the "copy/combine" button of the Model Panel or  
with the "combine" command).  The axis will be correctly computed/ 
shown when you use the combined model.
