sawhorse ...design:

I plan on buying the plans unless someone here has a link to a better
design


What's to plan? *Cut a notch, bolt legs together, done...

The guy obviously spent a lot of time on the design and making the
video & website and is trying to make a few extra bucks. *I just
downloaded the plans for $5 and they are well done. *Step-by-step
instructions with pictures and cutout templates for the notches.

I would have gone through at least two 2x4s trying to duplicate them
so why not reward somebody for a great idea at a fair price?
================================================== ========
One thing that I have never seen on a sawhorse that they should all have. An
adjustable leg. A tripod will sit solidly on uneven ground. Four legs are
likely to rock. Make one leg adjustable to take care of that problem.


I have seen folding tables that are meant to be used inside with a
short leg and a bolt running into the bottom for adjustability.
Obviously that wouldn't work on dirt.
