The 14-Minute Sawhorse!

Step 1 - Cut out the following pieces to build a pair of 2 sawhorses:

(8) 30-inch 2x4 pieces

(6) 32.5 inch 2x4 pieces

(2) 12"x12" pieces of scrap plywood from 1/4 thick or thicker

(4) 32.5 inch pieces of scrap 1x6 or approx. 6-inch wide plywood

You will also need about (30) 16d coated or galvanized nails and about (40) 8d coated or
galvanized nails

Step 2 - Construct two I-beams as shown below with the (6) 32.5-inch pieces using the 16d nails. Keep
the pieces centered as well as possible. Tip: Use several drywall screws to hold the boards correctly in
place before nailing.

Step 3 - Nail the (4) 30-inch legs onto each I-beam as shown below with
16d nails. The I-beams will cause the legs to be correctly angled.

Step 4 - Nail the 12"x12" pieces onto the ends with 8d nails as shown
below. Tip: Make sure horse sits level on the ground before attaching the
end pieces. Nail the boards evenly spaced from the top if you want nice
looking sawhorses!

Step 5 - Attach 32.5" 1-by-6 scrap lumber to sides as shown below with 8d
nails and trim off plywood end pieces. You are done! These horses are darn
near as strong as a horse and take only minutes (hence the name 14 minute
sawhorse) to build once the materials are gathered and cut out!
