This document describes the design and construction of a scissor jack. The objectives were to design, construct, and simplify a scissor jack. It discusses the CAD models of the scissor jack parts. Calculations were done to determine the required effort and torque to lift a 200kg load. The scissor jack parts were then constructed, including the arms, power screw, plates, and trunions. Testing showed the designed scissor jack could successfully lift medium-sized vehicles and required torque was within human capabilities. The objectives were achieved by constructing a simplified scissor jack.
