Now that I have my design,

To make machining easier, what if I made this a three piece bolt together assembly? It would have two identical side plates and then the top piece. Maybe four tapped holes for #8 or #10 machine screws or clearance holes for the same with nylon lock nuts at the end of 2" bolts... I wouldn't know how to calculate the bolt strength needed to deal with the loads.
