Ways to reinforce W6x15 beam for 20-ton splitter
First plan was to add 1/4" plates to both flanges and also box it in with 1/4" plates. As well as cap the ends, of course. However, the beam is being repurposed from log splitter version 1,
Solutions: Specialized penetrating oils, impact wrenches, hydraulic nut splitters (which safely split the nut without damaging the bolt or flange), or controlled flame cutting (only as a last resort and with extreme caut...

Just looking for ideas on ways to straighten the beam on my splitter and then reinforce it because it is probably weakened from being bowed once. You can see the straight edge in the pics.
Not exactly the same situation, but I had a project where I had to shore up the steel frame while the bottom flange was removed and replaced to give more headroom.
Demonstrates techniques for separating a red flange from a rubber flexible joint through video, suitable for beginners to quickly master disassembly methods.
Most log splitter beams are pretty thin section beams and a little difficult to flame straighten. A way I have had success with is to lay the beam on it''s side and mark the two high
