Looks good so far.
THe sliding advancement method is used on the smaller Pilkemaster Evo's etc is good for smaller wood, fast and cheap. But it maxes out at about 36cms (14") for capacity give or take.
If youre dealing with larger wood, 14"+ like it sounds like you want, I would quickly pass on the sliding idea and go with a chain or belt conveyor. No way you will be able to overcome the friction of a 14"+ log holding it by hand as the ram retracts. Just my opinion after trying to manually slide large logs on my processor. Too much friction. ANd this ignores all the ugly wood with limbs and other crap wanting to catch on the retract. In the videos they always seem to show nice smooth birch.. wonder why lol.
I went with a cable winch design for mine as you can see in my link below. I like the winch to pull logs to the processor, but the feeding part can be a bit frustrating. I wish I had went with a conventional conveyor and will likely adapt mine to a conveyor infeed at some time> A conveyor is just more flexable dealing with the randomness of the crappy logs these days.
Before you get too far into your build, strongly consider going with a conveyor over the sliding arrangement.
22" is a LOT of wood for a processor. I ran a 22" piece through mine this year and while it handled it, it wasnt happy!. After that one large piece of 8' oak (wet) I cut the subsequent smaller ones in half to lessen the load. Anything 20" and above got cut on the pile the old way and loaded into the splitter using my log lift. What Im saying is that it was a waste of energy and materials (imho) designing my processor for a 22" log. I had to make the too infeed large as well as the outfeed. I think that 16-18" would be the maximum Id build for, that way the infeed and outfeed could be tighter which would allow for better flow. Typical wood in these parts of late is 3-10", way down from what it used to be.
No I dont have giant hands... this was typical of what small stuff was delivered to me this year. Lots of twists too. Far too much of it in the pile as well! But what can you do. I waited over a month for this stuff.
