Alright, here is some more pics of the wedge and Adj. 4-Way. I still have some more to do on it but that is the general concept. I have to trim the wedge yet so it might seem a little tall right now, I didn't know how high I was going to need it until the 4-way was completed. I flame cut the wedge by hand, I was going to go to the machine shop and have them do it, but i got impatient and deciced to do it by hand It came out great surprisingly. It looks like I can do up to a 28" round into quaters. I really don't cut much over 20" so it's a bit of overkill. The four way is designed so I can take it off by just pulling it straight up, it rests on top of the block that is conected to the adj. cylinder. I wanted it this way beccause I'm really uncertain how the 4-way will perform and it will be so much easier to make a new one if I have to if the one I made don't work good. It's kinda funny I designed my whole 4-way on the possibility it will suck! I did however make it so I can use either end of the 4 way alls I have to do is jsut flip it over and it has a different depth and angle, If I'm lucky they both will work!
