I agree these are Unique cook Idea

super idea, construction, flexable, etc. I assume the bolts in the tops are for attaching rollers, sacraficial tops, table tops, etc. I think I shall build me a pair.

NICE!!! I do believe I need a pair of these. I already have many uses floating around in my head. Thanks for sharing.

Super nice and soooooo many uses.

Very cool! Great idea!

Great idea, and their being adjustable makes them especially versatile. Using a pin as a positive lock for heavy loads is a good thought.

thank you dave,

i use these around the shop all the time. i throw a piece of plywood on them for a quick table (any height), or use one to help support a long board at the bandsaw, i attach a roller to use them as outfeed for my tablesaw. i have one hole drilled so it lines up instantly to the tablesaw height without measuring. I even use them in the summer to make a temp picnic table for large gatherings. list is endless. only thing i haven’t done is use them for is a hammock. . . wait a minute, i might be able to . . . can’t wait till summer now.

You’re very welcome. As soon as I saw it, I realized that it not only was a great idea – but that it would also be a good combination for the shop rollers I put together a number of years ago in those cases where a roller would work better than a slide. I made six of these from scrap lumber and stainless steel rollers I salvaged from an abandoned commercial dishwasher. Right now I make mine ‘adjustable’ by clamping a board in the bottom ‘slot’ – then clamping the board to my sawhorses and other supports. Making a pair of your ‘saw horses’ to go with them is very tempting.

I like this design. I may have missed something, but how are the top horizontals attached to the metal tube?

clarence,
a horizonal bar is welded to the vertical pipe to form a “T-Bar”. I then drilled a 3/8” hole and used carriage bolts to bolt the 2×4 to the pipe. The 2×4 has a cove cut in it to allow the board to set on the pipe a little better.
