That's what I was taking so long to say... Making them yourself gives you the choice of how tall to make them. A set of brackets are about $10 for a pair which makes one horse. ----- Original Message ----- From: Larry Stansifer To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, January 09, 2008 4:16 AM Subject: RE: [BlindHandyMan] saw horses
I think you can also buy the brackets with the angles for the legs already dialed in. You simply cut the 2x4 or whatever to the desired length, bolt them together and you have saw horses -----Original Message----- From: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bob Kennedy Sent: Tuesday, January 08, 2008 9:22 PM To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] saw horses Most saw horses today are adjustable. The right height is what ever is most comfortable for you to work. I'm 6'3 so I don't want a set that are only 30 inches tall. If you are 5'8 you won't like using my 42 inch tall horses for long. If you are planning to build your own, you have a lot of say in how tall they are. If you are going to buy some, you'll have a lot of choices in ready made adjustments. Confused yet? I have 2 sets. A set of Stanley Fat Max and a set I bought from Home Depot years ago. The Stanley horses are a lot of plastic but fairly light weight. The set from Home Depot are steel and get rather heavy. But then to, the steel set will hold a lot more weight. Take a trip to a home center and have them show you their different choices. Even if you want to build your own, make the trip. You can pick up on a lot of ideas by seeing sets that are popular. ----- Original Message ----- From: Shane Hecker To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, January 08, 2008 11:00 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] saw horses What's the standard hight for a saw horse?
