I’ve made traditional Japanese sawhorses by hand with no nails, screws or glue, and Krenov style mortise and tenon sawhorses, but your design is too cool, I have to make some sets immediately. And paint them fun colors.
I found your channel a few weeks back and have to make you a huge compliment! the joy and motivation you spread is incredible and those saw horses will hang in my workshop soon as well. Thank you for this awesome idea!
Awesome to hear that! good luck with the build, and thanks for watching the videos :)
I’ve been looking for a good saw horse design to replace my often broken plastic folding saw horses. This is the best design I’ve seen. Mostly due to the replaceable top cross bar!
Watch out your fingers, man! OMG! Your chanel is brand new and very nice. I hope to watch more videos.
His fingers - yeah he gets really close where others use a plastic thing to do that.
Will probably have a short lived UA-cam career when he disappears for several months then tries to make some 9 fingered woodworking videos. I don't even remember wtf he was making in this video. Oh yeah, some meh sawhorses. Smh
Those saw horses beat the ones in the big box stores by miles! Nice design too!
They turned out great! I like the solution to keep the shelf from falling down.
Thanks Bruce!
Cool saw horses . Love that they are so low profile. 👍👍
First of all, i love the design of these, they are much sleeker than the ones i have build from pallet material. But why i'll keep watching your videos is because of your enthusiasm! Thanks for your effort!
Felix de Winter thanks for watching! ☺️
I always see great projects on this channel from a super switched on creator. P.S. I just love the exciting energy as well, it's contagious.
so that the feet open at the right spacing
add a string, maybe under the tray (it will switch to the correct position).
I've actually been using those cheap foldable trestle tables with the plastic top and metal legs instead of saw horses. You only need two to support both ends of a sheet of plywood or whatever when cutting it. They can also be used as extra work-table space or whatever too, and they are pretty light and fold down to almost nothing. I've actually been thinking of designing a table-saw setup using them as extension / out-feed tables as space in my garage is limited.
he is a perfect example for all the beginners who are starting woodworking
@_ David _ agreed
On how to lop off a finger or two on a table saw.
Got to build a set of these, I love them. I like your table saw also, we don't see many of those here in the US.
just purchased these plans and a metric measuring tape. Thank you so much. This is exactly what I needed.
This is such a cool design! When adding the final dowel to stop the shelf from falling, I thought you were going to add a track that the shelf could slide up and down on along the legs. Nevertheless, an awesome build!👍🏻
Awesome design! When I have a Workshop one day, will use these!
Wow thank You so much. I am planing so lang to buy this Things for My Workshop but i am to Lazy for it cous I dont Find thats worth it. This is a genuis idea and I am so thanfull You share it❤️✌🏻🔥
Great sawhorse design. Thank you for sharing.
Excellent. Learnt a lot!
Best diy sawhorses! And I have watched all of the UA-cam sawhorse videos…..
I wholeheartly agree with your choice of colour. Greetings from Germany
💅 greetings from Norway ✌️
Most of the time I love those google secret collecting data method….i search something I want and then they show me countless relevant things 🤣
This is truly inspirational on multiple levels. Great work, as always!
Thanks Fredrik ✌️
7:26 I like how you laughed at that. If that were me I would've gotten frustrated with them domino-ing!
UA-camr is very hard work, and you are the proof
Thank you
@@achappel anyway, your hands stay too near to sawblade, maybe you don't need some fingers? stay safe!
Love your videos. please make a table saw push stick. Thanks for your great content!
Saw the post where you said you felt comfortable. But that is where most mistakes happen. want you to keep your fingers so you can keep making great videos.
Liked-Subscribed-Notified. Sah-weeeeeeeeettt Table saw. I wished that they would make saws like that here in the USA
if only the IKEA sawhorses knew they were being used to build their replacements o.0
Don't tell them ! :P
Oh, the betrayal.
Great project, look good and save a lots of floor space 👍👏👏
Thanks man :) jeah i'm super happy :)
Your videos always make me wish I could afford to have a shop of my own haha
Thank you for another fantastic video!
One day! Thanks for watching :)
Hi Alexandre. This is the best plan I have seen. I bought plans and I am going to build sawhorses soon. But I am little bit confused from dimensions on plan. Why is "bottom brace" 400 x 90 mm and "hinged bottom brace" 402 x 90 mm? It makes one frame of sawhorse 2 mm wider then other. I can't figure out the reason. Thank for explainnig.
Did wonder the same… I chose both to be 400
Hi alexander! Great design. I bought your plans and are planning to build 4 horses this weekend! The thing I am worried about is the alignment of the hinges. It is hard to believe that you got it so accurate as shown in 11:09! A small angle error get amplified by the leg length of course. Any suggestions for aligning the hinges? Ideally, you want to start folded but you cannot mount screws of course. What about just a single screw, fold the saw horse, align and then carefully open it to drive in the remaining screws?
I told myself yesterday i would have to build some sawhorses for a project i'm about to start, guess i know what design i'm going for :) Subscribing to your patreon at this very moment, you make some high quality video's but your designs really are outstanding. (also love the incorporation of 3D printing from time to time)
jelath. O thanks man ✌️ glad you like the videos ☺️
I like your channel so much I didn't even skipped through the sponsored bit
You're the best!
Very nice saw horses. I will probably build myself a set. The sacrificial top piece is a nice feature. However, it's good practice to not cut your saw horses when working on them. Normally one would place (2) 2"x4"x8' boards between 2 horses with 4-6 pieces of 2"x4"x4' across them to both properly support your plywood and prevent cutting your horses.
Man that bare handed table saw operation got my clinching .... Be careful bro... those hands and fingers are precious... don't waste them for time savings.
Please, please, please practice better safety on your tablesaw with the use of push-sticks, etc. I have been doing woodworking projects for many years so I am very comfortable around power tools - too comfortable apparently. 3-1/2 weeks ago I was completing a simple cut list for a 3 drawer cabinet and I reached back across the blade and nearly cut 2 of my fingers off. I got lucky and they're healing nicely with no motor loss and sensation is slowly returning. I love your channel and do not want to see you hurt. Complacency + Impatience = Injury, Alexandre.
First of all, I'm happy to hear your healing up nicely! Sounds like that was a close call. And yes! absolutely use a pushstick, as I've mentioned earlier as well everyone needs to judge the situation themselves, I didn't feel like any of the cuts I made here were to close for comfort, and I will absolutely use a push stick when in doubt! The most dangerous cuts are always the most routine ones where you lose focus and make silly mistakes. Thanks for watching :) and a speedy recovery
I hear you my friend! I have spent years in the shop with power tools and continually warn myself to not get complacent, but it happens. Main reason I bought a SawStop 10 years ago. Besides it being a fantastic saw, I find myself being more careful of course not to get injured, but also to keep from tripping a cartridge and having to pay $80 to replace it.
nice to hear you healing well friend
JB jeah id love a saw stop or at least it's safety features, but I prefer the European style sliding table saw that I have now.
@@achappel SawStop has a sliding table add on that works great. That saw of yours is high quality and I appreciate the
Ayy new video, I really want to start wood working making my own table, but the tool was just exspensive
Excellent design congratulations.
Awesome job, love the design of these! 😃👌🏻👍🏻👊🏻
Fred McIntyre thanks dude ✌️
Great design. One could also drill/cut lightening holes/slots in the legs to lower the weight and give it an interesting look....
"I don't like the look of this wood let me paint it!"
Pink!?
Really...pink? Ahaha
Great design Alexandre! Thanks for sharing!
Another fun one, and one I'll be attempting in the near future.
Dunno if anyone has given you a hard time for the ad, but I say about time! Love your content, glad to see you getting something for it (beyond Patreon). Keep it up and thank you for all you do!
Thanks man ✌️ I'm glad you like the videos ☺️
Thats really cool!
You're hitting almost 100 000 subscribers and you deserve that because you make really interesting video's and you're always enthousiaste!! ;))
Creative Electronics thanks! I really appreciate the kind words ☺️
You hase basically recreated the now out of business Storehorse brand sawhorses.
That's a pretty good sawhorse.
Thanks ✌️
Very creative idea.
I actually bought the plans and
built 3 of these sawhorses! Who else can say that here in the comments 😊
The plans are really well made, clear and accurate. Worth the money.
However, the design itself resonates computer design and not workshop design. I mean it works nice on paper but not in practice.
The margins of 1 mm I can accept.
But all funny angles and cutouts are too time consuming to justify (just) a saw horse built.
Without a band saw at least.
Also, the alignment of the hinges is done flush to a shoulder, and then the far end of the legs should align within 1 mm. A lot of tweaking.
Concluding, I am happy with my result, but it was not worth all the hours a spent. Could be my lack of skill also 😉
So glad i saw this channel. Keep up the good work, you are amazing!
Nice project, as always.
Good engineering.
0:41 The fact that you're using the old ones for this feels like they're digging their own grave. Don't you hear them crying full of fear? 🥺
Your video quality is greatly improving. Nice work!
Would like to download plans for the 3/4 plywood foldable saw horses. Was able to get the one for mm plywood.
nice video! he clearly went to the david dobrik school of awkward constant semi-laughter
Lovely simple design. I have the same Bosch Tracksaw system.
Thanks ! and jeah i love that saw!
kawaad kawwad too good design man...
Nice work, great design.
your video's are always very good thks
Make yourself a push stick and don't risk cutting your hands off with the saw. 2:54
Always do what you feel comfortable with for yourself. A push stick would definitely have been a good option here, but I judged the distance to the blade to be safe for myself. Stay safe and always use a push stick when in doubt! thanks for watching :)
please do a video on chisel sharpening, a simple method please as this would be very helpful to new woodworkers, including hand planes.
Rob Cosman is an expert on sharpening. He taught me in person but his video's explain it very well! Razor sharp in less than 1 minute once you sharpen them the first time.
Can u repost plans to this for 3/4 inch plywood, regards Mick
Very cool! I need to make some new sawhorses.
Nice Table saw 👍
Nice I need to do this.
_watches video_
I can't do *_this!_*
Love your channel Alexandre! Please keep it up! 😃
Nice very nice thanks
My girlfriend will love this! Especially when blindfolded!
Did we watch the same video?
Hmm
Hmm you on the wrong place sir
Great build Alexandre!
Thanks! :)
Great Project and Video. But Pink? No Way 😀
Great design
Brilliant
Love. Accept for the color!
"with just a little bit of precision" - and some drill jiggling if the precision gets in the way (;
super nice sawhorses, and nice to see i'm not the only one splurging on torx screws. Bit more expensive, but impossible to cam out even at weird angles and almost infinitely reusable.
Robertson screws are the best even superior than torx. Regards, from Canada
@@keithagn Sadly they're almost impossible to get here in Sweden...
@keithagn: Torx screws with six points seem to have far more drive capacity than Roberston heads with only 4 sides/points. Torx is the way to go in my shop.
You got it bro woohoooo.....!!!
also to finish it off like a pro add a small chain or piece of rope to the side of the horses at the length of your plank support and you'll never have to adjust your lower plank on the horse it will always fall into it's right place...Just saying...
Great Project Alex!
Veldig elegant design, og kul video som vanlig!
Tusen takk 😊
I bet Future Alexandre Chappel would tell you to make a 3D printed jig for placing those dowels..
Amazing project
Thanks :)
Very nice :D Now make some boxes :D
haha, thanks! and Yes boss!
Put you're rusty clamb into white vinegar for a couple of days and it will be as new. It take's all the rust off :)
I discovered your channel a couple of months ago and it's fast become one of my favorite ones, great videos both on the practical side and on the entertainment side :)
Also, you could have 3d printed a doweling jig or a pocket screw jig, there's several on thingiverse and they are even usable :)
Luis Garza that's a great idea! I'll defeneatly do that! Thanks for watching :)
Thanks for vidio
Why are you not using safety glasses when using the saw saftey saftey
Hey! You should do a restauration on the big clamp. Might be a cool video (:
Awsome sawhorse-dizinge, i defently will builde some of those!
Thanks :) I'm glad you like them :)
@@achappel i am actualy building my New shop this summer, and will build it simular to yours, because i find your new workshop realy cool! :)
Beating ikea at flatpacking. Now that's gotta hurt.
So before buying plans what is the height off the floor when set up. Thanks.
i have to choose between music or hearing what you say. or keep going up and down with the volume.
8:50 Nice side quest
Is there a way you could send me the saw horse plans in measurements of the cuts in inches? I've already purchased your plans, just want to make it easier for me to build.
I am really glad I found you channel but what did you just said? 0:29 hahahahha made me laugh👍☺

Very cool saw horse, but the assembly is pretty complex. I'm sure someone as talented and clever as you can come up with something more simple and a little less time consuming to build
201/5000
Birch plywood? I really like that type of wood, unfortunately here in Spain they use it for "packaging" and it is rare to see decent boards to work with :(, but I love that type of "wood"
I am wondering, how these turned out in practice? I have bought plans and plan to build them in future, but when I have watched lot of your recent videos, these foldable horses won't ever show up in those - they are always those ikea ones that are being used when sawhorses are being needed. I would like to have foldable horses when i break plywood at home center to fit my car, so they don't really need to extremely sturdy for my purposes.
Thanks for the video. Could you tell the name of your table saw and where I could get it. I like the table sled attachment.
Babugaya I would like to know that also!
Its a old german saw called felder
How did you accomplish the panning motion at e.g. 7:10? It doesn't look like the usual cropping trick, because the perspective actually changes. Do you have some rails for that?
