This is how I've built sawhorses for years... learned from an old carpenter on the job.

First off, like the soda machine in your shop. Good job of showing a simple design that is easy to build. Have several sets with a 48" long 2x4 on top. I keep 3 each 2x10s 10 ft. long to put on top of the set of saw horses. Lengthwise cut of a sheet of plywood with out a piece falling. Also keep several 2x2s 48" long to put on top of planks for cross cutting a sheet of plywood and not hitting (cutting) the planks. Use it to hold my DeWalt miter saw, cutting up plywood, assembly, painting and scaffolding. Found that the vinyl post sleeves are 4" and just right for when using my miter saw.

Good demonstration, they look sturdy and functional. Little goes 100% perfect when demonstrating how to do something, all part of being human. Thanks for sharing.

I built 2 of these last weekend. I put a 15 degree bevel on the tops and bottoms of the legs though.

Nice and easy sawhorses! Thanks for sharing.

Just saw this about simple sawhorses, just what I needed to see. Nothing fancy, but works for me.thank you.

Thanks for sharing. Just built a pair of saw horses from watching your video. Slight alteration was using 2 x 6’s for the legs (the only lumber I had). They turned out great - perfect for putting my sailboat on, and strong, too 👍🏼

Simple. Efficient. I love it. Thanks.

I love the shop urinal in the back. Gives me an idea...

Another good tip to pick up from Kyle, GRK.

Thank you for keeping it simple. I made two of these and will make a few more pairs different sizes. Thanks for sharing

excellent horses,simple and very sturdy

Very nice! I will build these. Thanks

You did a great job on those easy but very useful sawhorses. Keep up the good videos. Have A Safe and Productive Day! 😁👍🏼😎

Great video. Thanks for sharing. I built a set this afternoon to use as a door painting jig. One simple step to increase stability and weight bearing capability is to add a 1x2 or 1x4 horizontal cross member on the outside of the legs about half way down to make an "A" frame. That will keep the legs from splaying. Make them long to start with and after they're screwed on, mark the overhand, take them back off, cut off the overhand and reinstall to have them flush with the legs. Super strong.

Great video, a fool proof simple to build saw horse. I found adding ply to the each side countered the tendency of the screws, and therefore the legs, to work loose after much use

Okay I made a set of these. They do go together fairly quick ,but the main complaint I have is you probably have to play around with screw sizes and placement to control splitting. Also- they are okay for light duty but if you're going tho put a lot of weight on them you might want to add some horizontal bracing between the legs close to the bottom.

Gonna make some of these the same height as my sawmill so I can slide off the flitches. Thanks buddy for showing us this

Great quick and easy video mate well done 👍

Good job bro!!

Nice and simple.

I'm going to make some of these. I like the simplicity, everything is square cuts. Looks like you could make one of these on the fly in 20 minutes. I keep buying those folding sheet metal horses for storage that are compact and light, then I overload them and wreck them. Considering my sawhorse history I better gusst the ends. Great video!

Good job mate. Give yourself a little more credit as you've helped a lot of people. Cheers from Brisbane, Australia

nice and simple, thanks mate

Well presented video, no waste of our time, and the only thing I would add are 1x4 (X) cross braces on both sides for max. stability since I've had a couple of horses pull up lame and collapse when working with heavier loads - so now for safety I use three instead of two, (much safer). Thanks for sharing from a new subscriber, hope to see some other ideas in the future.

I think I'll put some adjustable feet on mine, like the little rubber padded screws you find on the bottom of ovens or refrigerators to level them. That will help them stay balanced on uneven surfaces

Planning on building a big table for hosting the clan on Thanksgiving. While not pretty, your horse look like they could do the trick. A big table cloth will hide the plywood and saw horses :-)
