Been building the log stop.
It will be mounted on a sliding shaft, when the log contacts it the shaft will move and open a valve to dump the fluid from the log bunk conveyor and stop it. When the saw comes down a cam will lift the log stop out of the way, In theory anyway.
Thats the longest keyway I've ever cut, the arm will mount to that leave which can be moved up and down the shaft to set the block length, the keyway will locate the lock screws and keep it indexed.
This collar will have a roller mounted to it to follow the cam.

Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
