Three Legged Foldable Sawhorse - Built with Basic Tools

My Premier Project Plans: Plans can be found here The sawhorses I already had were great sawhorses built from Matthias Wandels plans, the only problem was, they were in the way inside the workshop, so I ended up leaving them outside and eventually they rotted away. I’ve been trying to figure out a way to make a foldable sawhorse while still staying fairly compact and I realised a three legged sawhorse would be an easy way to achieve that. My first steps were to mock up a three legged horse by just clamping pieces of studding timber together. I’ve always been quite skeptical of three legged sawhorses but I was surprised how stable it was. I decided to go ahead and build a ’Three legged foldable sawhorse’. Obviously a standard four legged sawhorse would be more stable but in 95% of cases the three legged sawhorse would be more than sufficient. The video is a little different to my normal style as I thought this needed more explanation - sorry that you have to put up with me talking so much. I hope you enjoy the video and as always I’m happy to answer any questions.
