Sawhorse

I’ve started work on a new project, that I will of course detail in a plethora of upcoming posts.   The first step of that project however was to cut some 4×8 sheets of plywood and MDF.   My table saw isn’t up to cutting full sheets like that so I’m regulated to using a circular saw.  For that I needed somewhat to support the wood, which led me to build a sawhorse.  I had already built a sort of table stand thing a few months ago (it can be seen in this post), so I only needed to build a single sawhorse.  I had some nice scrap 2×4’s laying around, so I used them for the legs, a scrap of plywood for the gussets on the side, and a nice big 2×6 scrap for the top.   I’m quite happy with how it turned out, I made it the same height as the table so I can use them together, and with the nice thick 2×6 top I don’t have to worry about running the saw through it.
