Medium Wood Elevator Platform — Detailed Guide
Lifting creatures on a wooden track
Attached to a 
Wood Elevator Track, the Medium Wood Elevator Platform lifts loads in ARK: Survival Evolved. The game sums it up: "Attach to an Elevator Track to lift a medium amount of weight." The ARK Wiki says it can lift most creatures, with a weight cap of 1000.
Unlocking and building it
The engram opens at level 23 and costs 7 engram points. Each platform takes:
- 350
Fiber - 285
Wood or 
Fungal Wood - 30
Metal Ingot or 
Scrap Metal Ingot
The wiki gives a crafting time of 5 seconds and 1 XP per craft. Stations on its list include the 
Smithy, the 
Tek Replicator and the 
Exo-Mek, plus the 
Argentavis, 
Castoroides and 
Thorny Dragon saddles.
Maps, loot and weight
It first came with Aberration, and the wiki also lists Lost Island, Crystal Isles, Fjordur, Genesis: Part 2 and Valguero. Our records count 44 loot crates that can contain it, for example the Genesis Blue, Cyan and Purple crates on Genesis Part 2. A platform weighs 4 and they stack to 100, so a full stack weighs 400.
Going up alone
The wiki points out that wooden elevator platforms, this one included, can only be raised from the top. That makes riding it up a slope awkward without a teammate at the switch.
