Sturdy Folding Lightweight Sawhorse

This folding sawhorse is surprisingly strong. The design locks the legs in place so it remains at the same height all the time. It folds almost flat and can be stored away when not in use.
To build one you will need 4 horizontal sections each 75cm long, 4 upright pieces 88cm long and the folding cross brace is 2 pieces each 24cm long. The timber is 90mm by 20mm and the hinges are 90mm wide

Finally found the simplest & practical design for DIY workers and this is what I'm gonna make, thank you for sharing.

Out of all the foldable sawhorse videos that I've seen on KZfaq, this one is the simplest (and I'm saying that in the BEST possible way). Thank you. I think even I can build this.

The design puts all of the stress vectors through the hinge. Think about it!

Genius! I wonder if this same horse could be done from 2x4s? I got eight spare 2x4s in the shed and would love to try... My cheap plastic saw horses are way too wobbly.

It should work fine, but they would be a lot heavier

Where did you get the tool used to round over the edges? I really like the pull action of it.

@AlansWoodworking 5 ай бұрын

Hi Mike. The tool is the Veritas Corner Tool. I bought mine in australia years ago, but I guess you could get them online these days. They're not cheap and they have limitations (can't use them against the grain) but they're a lot faster and convenient than using a router in a lot of cases. Have fun, Alan

Hey Alan!! Wondering if you have a rough estimate for how much these weigh? Looking to make some for my craft show table pop-ups and am being very concious about weight!

@AlansWoodworking Жыл бұрын

Hi Morgan. The sawhorse weighs 6 kg or 13.22 lbs. I used 90mm stock because that's what I had in the shop, but if weight is an issue you could probably use 70mm without sacrificing too much strength

@carlafernandez9610 2 ай бұрын

Hi what timber size did you use?

@AlansWoodworking 2 ай бұрын

I used 90mm by 12.5mm because that's what I had in the shop.
