Project Information
3 Leg Foldable Sawhorse
I had a pair of 4 leg very sturdy and strong folding hinges sawhorses 120cm long made of 2X4 with a bottom shelf but even though they serve me well, they were very heavy and big to carry around either to a job site or in my Alpha hatchback saloon car.
So I decided to break them down use their 2X4s and build a pair off 3 leg 93cm foldable sawhorses.
And yes I know I sacrifice sturdiness over mobility, space saving and practicality, but for what I needed them, this solution was more than enough.
Only thing left is to put a Velcro around them and a leather kind of handle and it's done.
This is not a fine woodworking project, just knock them down in couple of hours and looks don't matter at all to me… !!!
A sawhorse it's just a working horse as long as is straight and level.
Thanks for watching
