[@PaskMakes]

I made a quick guide with my dimensions on. Download the pdf here paskmakes.com/product/knockdown-sawhorse-plans/

Pask Makes ☺

[@fahermsen]

Nice for when i need some strong sawhorse because i have little room over here. Thanx great idea

[@abofehr4165]

I saw the drowning the leg angle 15 degree i think its not right

[@Cadwaladr]

Even if you didn't need a sawhorse, that could make a handy seat to take on a picnic or camping trip, &c.

[@BrothersMake]

My favourite bit is how the cord holds it all in place! Such a simple addition but will make all the difference. Good to see the hand is healing well Neil 👍🏼

[@vishwanpurandat8302]

Tell you what I learned something new every project. You're like that cool teacher everyone likes. Nice project very nice and simple. Good to see you're getting better also see you behind the stumps soon. You know you can make a set of stumps and bails with the jig. 💪😊

[@PaskMakes]

That's great to hear Vishwan! Making stumps, another use for the tenon cutter! :D

[@vishwanpurandat8302]

Pask Makes yes and the Christmas balls u made and we got wicketkeeper practice Right there1

[@MoYvStarkey]

Your instructions are so easy to follow. Glad your hand is healing. Thanks for the videos.

[@sumosprojects]

The simple nature in design makes it brilliant & the process of making it is even more brilliant mate 👍👍👍

[@ScrapwoodCity]

Awesome! the reamer and tenon cutter would work really nicely in making tuning pegs for musical instruments (like violins for example). Especially if you make them smaller. I want to try that at some point!

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks! That would be great to see! :)

[@MRNVCDIY]

Great chair

[@cliffsclips5522]

Fantastic.perfect for anyone with a small workshop or van if they need. I will be adding two to my to do list.

[@DaveJHarry]

2:55 Now you're all set for making novelty oversized pencils!

[@mensoberry4641]

Super ohne Schrauben ohne Nägel , klasse gemacht 👍

[@mkngjoy]

I'm surprised you didn't build it as a three-legged one like your last foldable one! great use of the tapered mortice!

[@PaskMakes]

I did think about it! :)

[@xtraMTpockets]

Very handy Neil, once you have a set, I am sure the uses will grow. Good stuff.

[@jons2447]

Hello, Pask; Thank you for the design & plans. Excellent design, very simple so very good, IMO. So much better than the ones you can buy. Have a GREAT day, Neighbor!

[@СергейПетров-с8щ7у]

Amazing tip with mirrors! Excelent work!

[@IsaKocoglu]

8:14 - 8:34 = 20 seconds. You beat your record, yay! Great job as usual. I am not sure if I like removable parts, but it turned out great, whether I liked it or not. Thank you for keeping up your great quality content.

[@More-Space-In-Ear]

Another super quick build that is not only handy but easy to build. Cheers my friend 👍🏼😊

[@PaskMakes]

No worries Marc! :)

[@CitizenAyellowblue]

Another easy to follow build for a very useful item!

[@thomasarussellsr]

Awesome alternative to the folding plastic or metal horses. Thanks for a great idea.

[@PaskMakes]

No worries Thomas - glad you liked it! :)

[@sierrakilo5345]

いつも役に立つビデオありがとう。 角度をつけて穴を空けるアイデアはとても参考になりました。 次のビデオ楽しみにしてます。 From Fukuoka, Japan.

[@PaskMakes]

ありがとうございました :)

[@berniesr]

Good to see your hand is on the mend . Nice project

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks mate! :)

[@SparrowStockwell]

That is a handy little sawhorse!

[@mc4kvb]

Very nice build Pask. There is some different type ways to do things but really interesting. Thanks for sharing.

[@Winterlulz]

I'm more of an eyebrow furrower myself. Love the saw horses, I made Mathias Wandel's design a while back, they super strong but I love how clean your design packs away!

[@PaskMakes]

Thank you! :)

[@Mcphilsmith]

Thanks for the alternate method of drilling the angles. Going to stick with your drill press method.

[@RiaanOliver]

Awesome project Neil, trust you to always come up with something unique. Some great camera shots and good to see your hand is healing.

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks very much Riaan - glad you liked it! Yes, the hand is just about healed. :)

[@jens-digitalwoodwork9852]

Nice solid woodwork! Thumbs up!

[@hebierob]

Greatly, greatly enjoy your videos and appreciate all the work you put into making a video!

[@revtmyers1]

Really like this idea and love the mirror trick. Great job.

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks Thomas! It worked very well! :)

[@BruceAUlrich]

I've not seen sawhorses quite like that before. Nice job!

[@jcsrst]

That was a nasty cut you got! Love the saw horses, might actually make some. I especially liked the mirror trick. Thanks for sharing and doing a great job as usual!

[@PaskMakes]

Thank you! :)

[@scott-vq3qk]

good idea for storage

[@whitedoggarage]

Nice bit of wood work there, thanks.

[@lint2023]

Gosh, I really like this design. You've done it again. !!

[@lint2023]

Nice quick taper marking jig. Nice mirror trick. It has me wondering if a third mirror could be used and with proper alignment, could both views be seen without having to turn your head. I see a run on mirrors about to occur.

[@PaskMakes]

You don't even have to turn your head, you can just move your eyes, but I couldn't help myself. ;)

[@glenngoodale1709]

Great project, beautiful video. as always. thanks Neil

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks Glenn! :)

[@IEnjoyCreatingVideos]

Nice looking sawhorse Neil! Thanks for sharing the video with us.😎👍JP

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks JP! :)

[@IEnjoyCreatingVideos]

You're very welcome Neil! 😎

[@KnobbyHobby4130]

Great video, Love your work! Thanks from Brisbane.

[@ianvicedomini2648]

Another nifty project. Nice one mate

[@OriginalMomo]

I might have to make a couple of these. Thank you

[@michaelballinger6419]

Take a block of scrap. Using a sliding bevel mark your taper down one edge then square the lines across. Then do the same from a second edge and cut down the lines to form the angle you want to drill at. In the end you'll have an L shaped guide. Put your drill bit centred where you want to drill, slide the guide block up to make contact with the side of your drill bit and bore your hole. It's much easier to control than using mirrors and looking left and right.

[@PaskMakes]

Yes that would work but I reckon it would have more room for error. You'd be able to view a smaller drill bit against the angled walls but a larger speed bore bit, spade bit or forstner bit wouldn't work so well. The mirror trick is great and something I will do from now on. Also very quick and easy. :)

[@michaelballinger6419]

Fair enough, I have used it with a brace and auger bit with very accurate results. It wouldn't work with a spade bit at all. There's a modified version I saw once for a forsner bit where a relief cut was made to the underside of the guide to allow the bit to fit in. Anyways good to hear the mirrors work well for you.

[@thewoodlesworkshop.157]

Hello! Excellent Sawhorse ... Good luck!

[@Phil-cl5dl]

Nifty idea....well done

[@dottiehildebrand3123]

Nice idea. Space saver to

[@martinwolf5957]

Hello Neil, again a nice project. Very well done. Greetings Martin 👍 👍 👍

[@PaskMakes]

Glad you like It Martin - thank you! :)

[@SMee67]

Handy build, mate, thanks for sharing 👍 Man, that must have been a corker slice in the hand there, healing nicely though 👌

[@PaskMakes]

Yeah! It was a pretty good one! ;)

[@harkidodia2513]

Brilliant mate, learned something new about using mirrors. Oh and it was about 15 sec not 30 to put it together...lol

[@RobRobertson1000]

Blinking AWESOME idea Pask :) LOVE IT!

[@bakedbeings]

Could you do that first mirror/angle drilling trick to drill into a hard-ish wood block and then use it as a drill guide for subsequent legs? Flip for either side?Maybe a handy thing to keep for making of a second/third horse, a stool etc.

[@ironjungkwonful]

This guy is a wizard

[@finferliacolazione]

Good job!👍

[@richardtrepanier228]

Makes a good camping table.

[@garagemonkeysan]

Nice video and project. Great mirror tip! 😊

[@russellmckay8896]

Ok, that's a knockdown sawhorse. I need a stand-up sawhorse

[@EYALAVRAHAMI]

Great project, beautiful video. as always.

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks mate - glad you liked it! :)

[@tahamahmoodahmed7362]

Good work

[@adrianhanson9584]

Drilling holes like a pirate!!

[@cobberpete1]

I'd like to wash up but my wife won't let me (Dinkum). Go and knock on Ikea's door, you might have a market ;D... And I find that if I stick my tongue to the left side while drilling, the holes are much more accurate LOL

[@PaskMakes]

I don't get a choice either, I have to do it! I didn't realise quite what faces I was pulling until I saw the footage! ;)

[@hundredhundred-thousand7951]

Never been so early! :D Great idea, I hope I can make a few of these soon (after I make those tenon/mortise cutters!)

[@PaskMakes]

That's great to hear! :)

[@thermmaloverload]

Arrg that face you pulled drilling, made you look like a pirate me matey...

[@PaskMakes]

Enough with yer bilge, ye parrot loving sea dog ....Arrrgh! ;)

[@johnnydingo8680]

Great idea, love it

[@jwstanley2645]

Good sawhorse!

[@michaellevi5569]

How it’s possible not like you work??? Very good technique beautiful work pask👏🏻 expect to next video

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks Michael! :)

[@brainfornothing]

Thanks for sharing !

[@clydebalcom8252]

Awesome

[@LegoMan-cz4mn]

honestly, that is probably easyer to set up than those metal or plastic saw horses (folding type) and also a lot sturdier

[@kuffyswoodwork]

Every time I see you use that reamer, I can see how you sliced your hand open. It just seems more natural to remove the reamer by gripping the shaft rather than the handle, but obviously that will end in tears each time 😢

[@PaskMakes]

Yes, you're right but there's no way I'll do it again. I only did it because the thing broke and for some reason I just grabbed it - in normal use I wouldn't just snatch at a tool the way I did. :)

[@johnmav8309]

Brilliant! Super and thank you!

[@LizQuilty]

Just a thought .... could you not use a hole saw to cut the round bit on the end and make live easy? :)

[@marksadler877]

I love the simple and compact design. Major space saver and super portable. I can only see 2 *possible* improvements: 1. Somehow make the mortise and hole keyed so that the the bottom angle of the leg is always at the correct orientation. 2. Cut a handle or attach a hardware handle on one edge to make it easier to carry. While I'd hate for you to destroy them, do you have any concept of the load limit? I know you stood on it and it looked solid enough, but I'm also thinking about hammering and banging on projects that are resting on the saw horses.

[@bmbullman]

recommendation for making the mortise and tenon tapers without that tool? Maybe make the hole undersized and file it with a curved rasp or file?

[@americanwoodworkingtrickss6543]

That stuff can be really useful.

[@jpmion]

Awesome Neil! Make giant pencils!!! : )

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks Joao - glad you liked it mate! :)

[@th34lch3m1st]

I like foldable/removable stuff that leaves things well organized and free spaces in the workshop. If I may ask, what kind of wood have you used? (as always, thanks for sharing)

[@Dobbin1010]

Impressive.

[@cmappouras]

Genius

[@brightnuertey1451]

Good work keep it up

[@dnngskn62]

Like someone mentioned this not just a saw horse its a multi-tool.

[@rodorozco9453]

Congratulations!!! I have seen at least a dozen models of sawhorses and as often happens, the simpler the better. And this is the simplest model I have seen. One question: I need to build a sawhorse 2 meters high. Do you think the same angles and shapes would work?? Best regards,

[@davestinyworkshop]

love it!

[@AndreaArzensek]

Hahah - Pirate's face is optional when drilling!

[@PaskMakes]

Arrrgh! ;)

[@fishoil2158]

why do you nibble away at those cuts on your miter saw station? I like that approach. Just like a three legged stool

[@ramiroborges7359]

It's much bigger than it seemed on instagram

[@PaskMakes]

It's about the same size I've made other sawhorses. I think because the legs are skinnier than the general 4x2 legs on most sawhorses it looks bigger than it actually is. :)

[@sergiocedeno5944]

fantasitic, i really like it. congrats

[@idelweiss]

Awesome videos. And thanks for the hard work you put in making them. Been wondering about something and not sure if you already done this. But would it be possible to use the wood thread for the legs?

[@Mikhandmaker]

Great job;-)

[@JohnMadeit]

that is a compact saw horse.. glade your hand is on the mend, but sorry about the washing up duty's :(

[@PaskMakes]

Thanks John! Already back in the swing of washing up! ;)

[@LostWhits]

Thanks Cool saw horse.. Any chance of making one with a threaded connection?

[@PaskMakes]

That's a good idea! It would take longer to screw together than this but it would still work. I may have to make one at some point. Thanks! :)

[@timem9547]

and what about a set of tapered tap and die? ...

[@stephenhawker9424]

Mate can I please come and hang out with you for 6 months i think I may learn a thing or 2..... Jjust gamming nice work always love your videos another great one. just add it to the list of Pask things to make! (its getting a little long) Thanks for your ongoing contribution!

[@PaskMakes]

Haha! No worries mate! ;)

[@thiagoamaral5912]

Nice, nice work! The faces kinda make you look like Popeye! :D

[@JoJo-zo8qd]

genial !

[@fernandolobaoemoficnadeapt9197]

Merece um like com toda certeza, boa semana!

[@PaskMakes]

Obrigado! :)

[@DanKoning777]

Making angled holes is much easier and more accurate on a drill press, though the faces are better your way ;)

[@drewpluck8701]

If u was to leave the leg a little longer could of used an hole saw

[@JanSzymonGoowacz]

And if i use inch board i make some kine of support for holes under the sit. I have couple of real old bench like this (60-100 years) and i saw archeological draw and photos from reserch in ground. It always have support like this i make 2 years ago: instagram.com/p/BThCwTEFbv0/ Not always is glued, moust of exemple are chop from biger piece of wood.

[@misfitramone]

That's not a knife...... This is a knife......... No that's a fish........ I see you've played knifie fishie before.....

[@misfitramone]

I really enjoy your content! I am going to make a couple of the projects you've been nice enough to post here. Keep up the fun and awesome videos!
