Default Sawbuck, anyone?

Anyone ever build a sawbuck, an X shaped sawhorse to hold logs on while

Suggestions appreciated.


There's a link to a pdf of a Mother Earth News sawbuck article
at top center of http://www.lcwoodworkers.com/projects.htm.
The idea at http://www.ericsprojects.com/?page_id=87 of
having the hinge point higher up (for wider footprint) is worth
considering. From my limited experience, they easily tip over
if the base isn't wide enough.
