Build a pair of simple sawhorses

[@richardwallace2458]

I know this vid is ancient but I just made these! They're brilliant and I'm proper delighted with myself. Cheers Chief!

[@MurfatlarAII0]

Hello, I’m a Romanian working in Germany, I’ll go back home in vacation and a part of the relaxation is to make some repairs on the old house, I’ll be trying to make the same things you did, the sawhorses look great and you are good at explaining on everyone’s understanding ! Lots of thanks, subscribed and 👍🏼!

[@mdrobnson3912]

LOL That is absolutely the best ad on a sponsored channel, I've seen. Thanks for the info AND the belly laugh sir.

[@sheilasmith9356]

I just want to say that I'm a middle aged female who has decided to start playing with wood...working...and I stumbled onto your videos looking for some simple inexpensive ideas and your's are great. You're fun to watch, straightforward, offer mistakes and simple solutions. Its very encouraging. Thanks for the great vids.

[@divineavengers]

Don't we all just love Steve? I just finished making them for very cheap :) Now I can flip over my Jon boat and paint the bottom of it :p Thank you so much Steve you are my hero!

[@drewr729]

I made these sawhorses. Never realized how much I would use them! Thanks Steve.

[@dane714]

Beginner wood worker here. Thanks for this video. I now have a set of decent saw horses.

[@RetiredTony]

me too!

[@vizualizeit08]

Same ✌️

[@scrfirefighter]

I've made these exact sawhorses, and everyone loves them! They're super strong. Thanks for this video.

[@ybernier1925]

Very nice build! I’ve seen a couple videos that seriously over complicate these, thanks man

[@arthurleal2674]

AWESOME! and easy/quick build. Just made mine today. Need no fancy stuff just sawhorses to use. Miter saw really comes in handy. Hand saw it more difficult to make or cut angles. I finally decided to get a miter saw and realized I should of bought it years ago, even for a home around handy person like me. Again, thanks for the demo!

[@laser4341]

to this date, i have finished watching all 154 of your videos. In just under one week at that. You, sir, do a great job.

[@2020sight]

Thanks for the design idea Steve, just made these and really pleased with the result :)

[@texchef9945]

Love all your videos, Steve. I can't draw a straight line with a speed square but I love woodworking projects. You always post useful videos that spur ideas for me. Thanks!

[@ppeterzhong]

Just made mine with 6 2x4x8' as a beginner, as the instructions are so clear and simple. Total cost of $19. The lowest you can get with similar size sawhorses. Just returned ALDI sawhorses with same cost but half the size and lower capacity. Mine now has 14 2x4x8' on them and it is very sturdy and nothing moves. I intentionally left a 1/4" width top land for the 45 degree cut, easier for clamping. Thanks again.

[@SteveRamsey]

They are available in big. And they really are good workpants.

[@mpadierna]

I've just made your foldable sawhorses and I'm very happy with them. But I have to say this version is incredibly strong, not to mention very easy to build even with just a miter box, a hand saw and a drill. Mine have 8 full years of hard work and abuse and they are still kicking. Thank you very much for the ideas!

[@filoubegarie7272]

I sell this brand in my store in France for 1 year now and they are very resistant clothing, and a great quality. The provider equips us to promote it, and they are really great to wear! Steve thank you for all your videos, and even though I do not understand any English, I love watching your prowess and your way of doing and invent. Thank you from the southwest of France ^ ^

[@Heatherjosan]

Thanks for making your videos so easy to follow!!

[@shinjianimesweden]

Thank you sir. Just i was looking for, simple and sturdy. =)

[@mikeocean]

Built this pair today. Thanks for the tutorial. Made building the shelves for the shop so much easier.

[@findingusernamesux11]

I'm Swedish man and that commercial in the beginning was a blast, "dot and cirkel thingy", hahaha!!!! Great video as always, I watch them alot! Thanks! /Nic.

[@sararice2914]

The best made video I’ve seen yet. Very simple explanation

[@GIJeaux1]

Thanks Steve. I built a set of these yesterday and they came out solid as a rock. Keep em' coming.

[@fire7side]

I don't normally advertise for a company, but I find a workmate to be so useful. It folds down, and all you need is one sawhorse the same height and you practically have a tool shop. I even clean fish on it.

[@Total-Wellness-uk]

Thanks for the video Steve, I used your video yesterday as inspiration for my own sawhorse while I was waiting for more project timber.

[@fabersd]

Of all woodworkers he is the best comedian and of all comedians he is the best woodworker.

[@n3qdz]

So saw horses eh ok, no big deal The pants AD in the beginning stellar! I love it going to their site to find them and get a pair! I love that a manufacturer will let you do a not so serious ad on their product. It has gotten me to get a pair! Great job as always Steve and thank you for keeping you're content free!!!

[@NeuroWrangler]

Nice design. If you screwed your lower center brace to the underside of the cross braces then you could have a removable shelf by sliding a board across the top of the cross braces.

[@markb8954]

Good idea!

[@sivucit]

Hi, I just did a Drawer by myself with no knolwedge on Carpenter, then while searching for good videos, i saw yours and really enjoyed. Thanks so much .. I would appreciate if you can provide list of tools you use and when u use that tools that would really helpful, please ..

[@pepperdog3761]

Finally!! Simple,quick and most of all functional! Great vid...ty

[@SteveRamsey]

Wow...that's incredible! Even the crappy ones?

[@GongaDuck]

I've always been interested in woodworking, but never really stepped out to do it. I saw this video and figured if I could make these saw horses, then I could move into doing more woodworking. I know I will not be like Steve (I can't find those pants!) but I can be the best me. Thank you for this video to help encourage me to make something, and find ways to stop the excuses.

[@dannyrogers6753]

I just finished my sawhorses. I made them 36” tall, all came out great. Thanks, good video.

[@barneygaumer5024]

Great sawhorses! I used nails in place of screws. Apreciate the video and enjoying my new sawhorses. Thank you!

[@Altonbr1]

Love it, dude. Perfect timing. I was just about to build some because i need a pair for my new project and this vid came at the perfect time.

[@vizualizeit08]

Anyone here in 2020? Made these today! Nice job ✌️

[@markb8954]

@@vizualizeit08 Yep….and in 2022

[@legham21]

Thanks Steve, Just completed two of my own. This was my first bit of woodwork, the video helped me out heaps!!

[@wigm]

Thanks for sharing all these great videos. I made a set of these with a slight change to make them stackable. Made one where the legs are a bit closer so it fits under the regular one.

[@Daljit-NY]

Loved the ad, almost skiped it untill recognized u steve lolz..funny...and great saw horses... :) Entertaining and informative as usual :)

[@LLuE88]

a nice feature about this design is that it can be minimised at the bottom connecting 15" boards between the individual legs or at the connection of the pair of legs ( about 36" board), depends on the safety, strength, rigitity or life span desired. Actually the bevel cut at the bottom end may as well be left square, especially if used on outside surfaces.

[@lomker24]

Thanks it worked great. First pair I've ever made.

[@WinchesterWoodWorks]

Built these today! What a great and easy design. Loved the video! Converted inches and feet to cm and meter and followed your guide for the rest :) Thank you :)

[@chrisapede]

best youtube product plug yet!

[@ederickson7314]

neighbor took down their shed....scrapeds 2 x s worked out well cordless impact driver mitersaw pre drill cordless thanxs sAVED ALOT OF TIME like your plan

[@rgray318]

Best Sawhorse design I have seen yet, thank you. One question if you can please. I am using this design so I can transport a portable Crossbow shooting table from different locations. I would like to build a 7' x 4', "L" shaped table top that quickly folds in three 16" hinged sections, with handles. However, I am not sure what type of plywood I should be looking for. Needs to be cheap, such as OSB or MDF, less than $15 or so and paintable. Any ideas for a proper outdoor table top?

[@ryestephens]

thanks Steve! just made a pair!

[@charlango1]

Finally a good and simple video !

[@fermingodoy7534]

very good job you are the man. easy,clean fast. thank you ..from merida yucatan mx. greetings

[@hellorecroder]

Thanks for the vid. I'm terrible at working with wood but made these no problem, well needed

[@BlackieMiles1]

Very clear instruction and to the point.

[@mds6860]

Awesome vid and even better sense of humor...the blackladder (i dont know how to out the dotty umlaut thingys in) intro was great,

[@multiguitarcrew]

Very nice sawhorses steve!!

[@SteveRamsey]

That's one of the reasons I made these. My old ones were just to heavy and bulky.

[@dawnofthediy5585]

I’m in need of some sawhorses. I’ll definitely be making these.

[@loveicefishing47]

Thank`s Stevin, going to make them today. my cheap plastic one`s are junk these will work great.

[@kikenu2]

What about some sort of tackle box for fishing. A spot for loose hooks and lures. Would be nice to see what u come up with

[@hillcountrylivin]

I’m going to make a pair this weekend!!

[@learnerlearns]

Best gratuitous commercial for pants ever! I will buy a pair !

[@torgy]

is there way to make them so they and stack able to save room for those with limited space?

[@OhlalaMonAmour]

I was trying to make a desk with sawhorse as leg. Thanks so much for your help -Maria

[@RestoreITdontJunkIT]

do you recommend titebond ll yellow over other products like "Elmer's" or similar glue products. thank you in advance n sorry for asking a question off of your answer. take care n god bless.

[@pojunskii]

I love your videos man, wood working is my dream i only wish i had a place to do it.. your videos are actually very very informational!

[@mh53eflyguy]

Simple yet useful! Great video as always Steve! Love the new sponsor ad!

[@irmaztamal21]

That guitar riffs from the beginning is awesome....🤘

[@Rustaholic777]

I use the cheap metal clamps. Then just a few inches below the metal I put a spredder between the legs on each side. Then I cut a piece that goes from the center of the spredders up to the top board. Very simple and very strong. PLUS>>>>> Mine are stackable for when I am not using them.

[@RawandCookedVegan]

Opening ad hilarious. Great video. Thanks

[@FourDollaRacing]

No table saw needed.... I like it. 👍

[@SteveRamsey]

It's a good idea. But please avoid being afraid of woodworking. Fear can be overcome.

[@Hidden-comment164]

Wow watching in 2020 & you’ve changed for the better 😂

[@ANCHORMettaphysics]

LOL! I was just wondering how to make these when I watched your other video! Awesome! :)

[@grooverjamesr]

That is incredible, I was wanting to get some woodworking experience, and with all your great videos, I feel as if I could do it. Thanks

[@brendo3314]

Great video you make it simple and explain it well

[@mgreene939]

Would it be ok to use wider boards for the top?

[@TMS2211]

Why do videos from 10 years ago look like they’re from 20 years ago now? I swear in 2012 videos did not seem like they had this low quality recording

[@SarcasmSage-w6o]

Ok. The pants advert got me lol

[@MisterSoul99]

The man can even make saw horses interesting.

[@chinese244]

Great video.......thank you....Question : Right in the beginning of your first cut (actually second) you measured 30 inches. 30 inches before you made the first 22.5 inch cut ?? thank you

[@jag75austin]

thank you sir...just build a couple of these sawhorses from your design. Simple enough, very sturdy. Required only five 2x4s

[@NewEnglandsWoodWorks]

Nice Video Steve!

[@Sobelava9]

omg i thought that u were really in an ad that was amazing. great job Steve

[@hasdrubal121]

Another project added to the list thanks Steve, love the vids and inspiration

[@ToxicFlies13]

Great ad and great project

[@SteveRamsey]

It's Titebond II yellow wood glue

[@WestOCHD2006]

Like the pants, But are they comfortable? Been watching for some time and will send you a vid of my shop I recently built Bruce - Ocean CIty MD

[@spppsydney]

Finally completed! Thank you. I used hardwood which was a little bit of a nightmare to drive screws into even with pilot holes. I'm an armature so I'm sure I'm missing something. If anyone has any tips please let me know.

[@spppsydney]

+MrSeaneboy you're absolutely right. I used it because I had the scraps laying around

[@spppsydney]

+Jake Spade good to know thank you.

[@cliffcarlo180]

An old tip that a carpenter told me years ago was to measure to your hip-bone and make a sawhorse to your own personal height. Mine are 40 inches. Certainly, does help with a chronic backache avoided. I am now able to lean over my work piece instead of constantly bending down to it. I'm 6 feet 5 inch.

[@ellobo761]

Very good video!

[@calebr2323]

Thanks man! Got a nice pair of saw horses now.

[@LLuE88]

have you mentioned the glue used here ( haven't seen one that color) thanks

[@MegaRMATT]

hi from Criciuma, Brazil. congrats for the videos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jdsbc98]

Hey Steve, what size screws are you using where the 45 degree bevel meets the 22.5 cuts?

[@PsychoStueyHappyKittens]

Steve's truck is my favorite side character

[@chatteyj]

I have some timber 47mm x 47mm is that good enough for the legs of a trestle?

[@maximuscholencus5939]

great video, simple and strong design, thanks!!

[@spppsydney]

Is the 45 degree cut in line or opposite the 22.5 degree cut? My guess is that it's opposing but I thought I'd double check I've never done this before.

[@Rgarcia713]

Will be making one this week, Thanks

[@Laxpowertoo]

Beer table legs...cool! You should go on Discovery channel like Norms Yankee woodworm thing, but instead of crusty furniture you could make things that hold beer!

[@dandeon7742]

Steve, where do I find the plans for these sawhorses? Thanks!

[@neropatti1504]

Could you make something really decorated/decorative for one of your next projects? I really love your videos but I'm quickly running out of them. Thanks for all your hard work! The add made me laugh.

[@TheMonopodi78]

The top piece screws could be deeper in the wood thinking that if you cut something on top of the top piece and the blade catches the screw the blade doesn't like that. Great design, I'm gona make these too!

[@timma9027]

I just built these. Turned out great. Sturdy
