Awesome work! Looks like you have the grain of the wood horizontal, if you put the grain vertical it will be stronger.

The wood plate is actually two pieces of one inch thick Maple bonded together with epoxy and the grain is turned 90 degrees to each other. Gives it strength in both directions.

Good work! Did you attach a torsion spring to your jack plate yet? If so will you share it?

Thanks Edward. I haven't attached the springs yet but when I do I will certainly post a video.

one last ? what is the location of the 1/4 hole on the top swing arms for the bolt to hold the locking arms. 1/2 on center about 4 " ??
@Neon_Sandbox

+Grizz Reaper I think it was more like 3". I didn't want the locking arms to be too vertical or to horizontal, if that make any sense. An angle that allowed close to a straight pull on the locking bars without too much force forward or aft.

+John English I haven't found any springs strong enough to assist in lifting a motor yet. I stuck on some tension spring but they are only strong enough to lift the plate.

Not yet Ed. Life got in the way. However, I did buy some beefy extension spring but have not had a chance to install them. Possibly in the coming weeks, I'll be sure to post a video showing if they worked or not.
