Re: My woodsplitter project
I measured off 36 inches from the wedge tip toward the cylinder.

Then I put my pusher plate on that mark to include it in the measurements.
Eventually this will be welded to another plate and tied to the cylinder to push the logs.

I stuck one of my steel pieces that will get a hole put in it up there next to see how far it would push my cylinder back.

I marked it at about the center hole of the cylinder. Then I took all the plating away and put the cylinder there.

That told me where the front of the cylinder should be. So that also told me where the back should be. I tied the anchor thingy to the cylinder and popped the pin in. With the front lined up I then lined up the anchor and centered it. Clamped it down too.

I scraped the paint away next to it just like with the wedge. It still felt wrong.

Then I welded it and took a picture of my hand because that's helpful. You're welcome! As an added bonus the paint caught fire and I had to snuff it out with my glove.

Some people are like slinkys. Not worth much but funny as heck when pushed down stairs.
