Every workshop needs at least one pair of sawhorses. They can be used as support for holding lumber or painting a door, or, with the help of some plywoo become an instant table. I made a set of your sawhorses when my old ones started to fall apart. One addition I made was to add 4′ cross pieces to make a sturdy table. The cross pieces have a 2×on the wide side screwed to another 2×on the narrow side.

The top piece is cut shorter to match the I beam piece on the sawhorse. Cut the two boards to the lines, and attach them to the legs with screws on each attachment point. A sawhorse is a great project for a beginning woodworker. Use scrap wood and salvaged materials for an inexpensive solution for garage or workroom. A unique design transforms a single piece of plywood into sturdy, versatile shop helpers.
