Cylinder orientation on different surfaces?

Hi, so I've been using the normal vector to align parts with different surfaces. Although I don't know how to make it work with cylinders. I need the flat part of the cylinder to face up.

Could anyone give me an idea on how to accomplish this?

I'm not completely sure, but just from testing in studio it seems like cylinders always spawn with the flat ends facing the x axis. so, if you have the normal vector, just rotate the cylinder by 90 degrees along its z axis and offset using half its x size instead before you calculate the rest. also, neat gif!
