My swim platform rebuild

[TOREBACK]

We recently picked up a new to us 2001 malibu response LX, but the swim platform was really rotted. After overhauling the engine and getting us back on the water i then rebuilt the swim platform. 

i thought id share the DXF. file of the original shape in case anyone wants to remake theirs. i did add the logo though that wasn't original.

i finished the top deck and bottom supports at 13/16ths. took roughly 30 board feet of material. i used a ribbon grain Sapele finished with oil. 

only way i could think to share the .DXF file was upload it to thingiverse. scroll down to were it says 1 thing files and click on swim platform 01 response download. not "download all"  https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6195602/files

 

here is a photo album of the build process and the final results https://photos.app.goo.gl/8tZXp8tmYkrqyuXV7

Impressive!

[Woodski]

Stunning!  Great work, and what a nice wood shop. 

Your only flaw in the process, will you allow anybody to actually use it?  Kind of like 'please take off your shoes at the door' ... no skis or boards allowed on the platform

This file appears to be cabinets.

Thanks for all the appreciation guys. Ya it will get scratches but comes with the territory. The logo is an 1/8 deep so once a year I can pull it off and sand down into fresh material if it gets to bad.
