I am making this splitter to fit my 3 point plate on bobcat. 4.5" x 30 Cylinder , beam is quite large but free.
I like the grease array on the bottom of the push plate carriage. I might borrow that idea. I see some of the heavier duty splitters have about half an inch wide run of weld accross the beam, about an inch from the knife, to tilt the wood up into the blade instead of down into the beam. Helps eliminate twist and beam bending.
That'll be one of the things I do to mine after I've finished ribbing, triple skinning and double deeping my beam! Best of luck and thanks for posting pix.
