Those 3/4" pins will be plenty strong, but will probably bend slightly upward over time and use. Set your linch pin holes to hold the lift balls pretty close, but not hard against the barrel. ... Say, leave room for an inside washer - and maybe outside too if you like. Thatll leave some breathing space to make adjustment if slight bending occurs.I had to move it at the 3 day mark. It was just in my way. I didn't plan well ahead. My shop floor was the only place I had that was flat and the barrel wouldn't get rained in. I lifted genly and didn't bump it at all when I set it down. Need to finsh up the 3/4" lift pins/rod today and get it ready for log work.
Thanks again to all who have had informative input.
