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

[@Patrick_Gray]

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.

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

[@budman123052]

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.

[@rfischer1955]

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

[@dylanlewis8478]

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 👍🏼

[@davidcarrillo205]

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

[@tomgrimmer947]

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.

[@TheDurbinCompound]

Great tips!

I’m glad you liked the video!

[@migueltor6434]

I like the idea of using a rafter square.

[@joedavidson6556]

Works for me. I was looking for a cheap way to make my own. Thanks for this. Much appreciated

[@strummer6642]

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

[@terrybodkin5917]

Great idea. Love it. I’m headed to garage to make a few sets for garage sales.

[@garlichoto4669]

1st and last video I need. Will be making these this weekend. Thank you

I like the pisser beside the sink haha. Much better than a jerry can with a funnel.

Definitely a great solution for a common problem. I'd like to see more videos like this as well. Well done!

Thanks Jeff. Slowly but surely coming up with some better solutions that don’t cost thousands

[@gerardosimonetti9361]

Great job thanks sharing !

[@jeffreyallen3777]

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!

[@scrapperbros6594]

Hi nice job I’m a young up and coming woodworker and I am going to try this out Thanks

[@TheDurbinCompound]

Thanks Rob. Appreciate you brother.

[@larrywhalen596]

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.

[@kittehboiDJ]

"Pull up lame" Thanks for the laugh!

Going to build a set soon, probably 36” cuts for all the boards. This is awesome! 👍

[@TheDurbinCompound]

Sounds good! Looking forward to how they turn out. I was think of giving this set a coat of spar varnish just for kicks! That would be different for sure

[@alwaysup2late]

@@TheDurbinCompound I was just thinking about that, I'm looking at some ebony stain. Should turn out pretty cool

[@businesstryouts1061]

Good job bro!!

[@robinsvarrer4299]

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.

[@ARMYStrongHOOAH17]

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

[@joseotero2555]

Thank you, I’m going to build them. Nice shop and pants.

@@ciandornbusch9 I neither like nor dislike the pants

[@lmrk8441]

The last thing I would do after assembly would be to remove the top 2X4. If you do much sheet work you will cut one , same with putting the top screw of the legs to close to the top.

I like your Urinal in the back ground. If you don't have a video on how you hooked it up or run water to it and septic system can you at least do a walk around video? Thanks. I am thinking something similar using rain water collection and a dry well Thanks

[@TheDurbinCompound]

That is kind of how I have it hooked up. I have a 20 gallon barrel on the catwalk that I fill with the garden hose. The discharge goes into an angle straight out the wall and onto the ground.
