I tried hard to make one, even tried to copy a manufactured one but ended up buying one from Transducer Shield and Saver. Best money I ever spent. Mounting one on the jack plate is the only way to go.

If you're asking me mine is a Slidemaster. i have skid plates already in stock for slidemaster jack plates. very easy to mount your transducer to the skid plate. only takes about 3 to 5 minutes to mount the skid plate to the jack plate.
