This video will be a basic introduction to how to make a pair of conventional sawhorses with simple power tools. Decisions regarding design, engineering trade-off’s, and the practicality of how this is done will be discussed. For those who want to duplicate this classic design, a parts and tools list will be provided at the end.

Any form of DIY adventure involves risk, both to the person involved, property, and bystanders. This video is offered in good faith, for free, but with no guarantees as to accuracy or safety. Power tools like the circular saw and the table saw can cause life threatening and profound life altering complications. Those risks are particularly high if you try to cut something from stock that is too small to control safely. Don’t blame me if you make a stupid mistake! Only move forward with any project if you’re willing to accept and bear responsibility for those risks.
