Fabbed up and welded on a D-ring out of some 3/8" round stock and piece of small angle to chain the log lift up for transport:
I still have a clearance problem with the log lift and push block ... even after trimming the log lift a good bit. Today I'll have to see what it's going to take to eliminate that.
Also fixed (I think) another leak on the inlet side of the valve that controls the log lift.
I have some fluid leakage near the base end of the push block cylinder ... I'm hoping that it's just a matter of tightening the four threaded rods that hold the ends and tube of the cylinder together ... need to see if I can scrounge up a torque spec for the nuts.
Jury is still out on the restriction orifice for the log lift valve ... the hole may be too small ... builds a snot of pressure in a hurry if you don't go real light on the control valve. Probably would help if there was some real weight on the log lift.
Got side-tracked into the rebuilding the grate for the double barrel stove up in the shop yesterday ... got tired of moving around the 3/4" solid rod I picked up to do it ... lol ...
Got it built and installed though (a very messy job) ... along with a gasket for the lid of the bottom barrel. Next will be getting the gaskets installed on the doors.
