That part could easily be traced an scaled to fit using Inkscape. Is it the wedge style locking or pin locking?

Yes the wedge style with the pins that lock in the bottom I have never used Inkscape I just got a new table with flashcut and have been trying to figure out how to trace it/ draw it in there but the program is new to me

These were the pics I was going off if they will be out of 1.5” thick steel I think these dimensions are close but I can measure one for sure later
