Try the Dewalt 33" folding portable work bench , $87.88 each at home depot but there worth every penny
@@fuccityful I haven't seen that one but love my other Dewalt stuff ... thanks for the tip
The Craftsman saw horses clip together with those black clips.
The craftsman horses use the clasp on each end to lock 2 units together, Great vid and info THANKS!
Thanks for that. Great little horses! I figured out that latch finally and use it all the time.
Good video.. I ended up with the set of craftsman horses ..on sale at lowes just under 18 bucks each.. good for around the house use.. and yes the clips on the side is for attaching the pair together more compact and easy handling 👍
Good price! I still like those
I like your style with your humour and style of delivery
Big thanks!
love that you are talking directly to me. love the truck and the rack you built on it. looks great. would like to build something like you built in the back of the bed. i'm not a contractor or even a handy man but love watching your videos about you work ethic. i'm starting to try and do some small projects around my house. thanks.
That rack is the most satisfying thing I've put together in a long time, mainly because I use it every day and it never lets me down. I'm thinking of putting something slightly different together for my other truck, but we'll see if I can find the time and $$ ... anyway, great hearing from ya man! :)
Thanks for a great video reviews of saw horse stands. 👍
You betcha
A nice, practical, in the field real world product comparison of an essential construction tool from a hard working tradesman who just needs things to work well & be durable. I wish all reviews were this straight ahead.
Just bought an actual pair of ToughBuilt TB-700C's, which I hope will go the distance as I try to build a sustainable homestead to see me thru to the end of my life. They seem to have all the features I am going to need, and they appear to be reasonably rugged. I guess we'll see pretty soon...
You’re gonna like those toughbuilts… thanks man
I can't believe you didn't have the Toughbuilt saw horse? That's why I clicked on the video for crying out loud.
Sorry, man. I can only afford so much and usually go with knock-offs
@@metaspencer Its all good. I understand.
Subscribed love it when i search for something and you find the video that explains exactly what you needed and thanks for being someone that takes the time to collect all these products from different companies and tries to narrow down the differences. Thumbs up 👍
Oh excellent! It took a while to put that video together, but was worth the effort and I learned a lot from it. Take care
I really liked the humor you put into this video! :)
haha ... big thanks!
Those side latches on the craftsman set is so you can connect the two together when folded
I've since figured that our thanks to helpful comments like yours. They click together nicely and are much better to carry that way. I like the little guys :)
Lots of common sense, good review sir.
Thanks buddy
The black clips on the Craftsman allow you to connect two saw horses- makes it easy to carry a pair with one hand. Look a little closer, you’ll see how it works.
Thanks for that! Indeed, they snap together well. Nice little sawhorses
hi metaspencer, i have watched a lot of your videos you have posted. Thanks so much. Keep up the good work.
Great to hear from ya, man! Thanks for watching and hanging in there with me :)
the myster black clasp locks the two together! and it is awesome ! i also doubted these but really like them
I finally figured that clasp out ... took me a while! yep mine are still going strong: nice saw horses. :)
It's time for another sawhorse showdown. There has been a multitude of sawhorses introduced to the market, and we, the viewing audience, need an update. Thanks!
I’ll have to look into it!
Saw your Forup horses you returned. They are very similar to ones that Harbor Freight Tools sells. HFT's has a screw point to keep the bracer from coming off and HFT's height adjustors look better. I loved the fact that could tuck them away on a shelf. I did add small magnets to the legs to hold the bracers in place while I store them. I know people dog HFT but sometimes they do have some good tools for the money.
HF comes through all the time! Cool that you made those work. Yeah I use tons of their stuff
Not very portable but the best sawhorses I've ever had were homemade. Two square frames connected by hinges. Set on their side so looking down they form a V. Put 2 together with the points close and when you cut a piece of plywood it doesn't fall and tear out.
I agree in terms of durability and strength ... plus, I don't worry about leaving them out in the elements.
I have the Stanley version of these. And to attach a strap of wood, what I’ve done is drilled a simple screw hole at each end and sit the wood on top and screw it on from underneath.
It’s only a 2”X3/4” strap, so it’s on there permanently and doesn’t get in the way when folded and transporting them.
GREAT idea. I can see that working well ... those Stanley units have nice action and are nice and light
I think the clasp on the Craftsman saw horses are so that you can clip two together when folded for easy transport.
You're absolutely right! It befuddled me but someone else mentioned that and yeah, they work. Great little horses
On the third set. Those tags are to join then for transporting
And it works really well! Nice to have figured that out (finally). Thanks man
Great reviews and I just happen to be in the market. I am actually looking for one to put on a portable shooting bench.
Sounds like a plan. Adjusting the legs will probably help you
We use those yellow metal saw horses at work all the time. We welded them open because we routinely put 600+ lbs on them. And they’ve held up really well over the years with no signs of wear and tear other then minor paint scratches.
I have the wooden ones at home. I don’t like them because I’ve had the legs kick out one me of they’re not setup super straight. I’m looking to go with a different style.
Welding those yellow ones open would definitely make them secure ... for life! cool idea. if I had another pair I'd do it as the steel is thick enough to hold a weld. thanks man
Hey great comparison. I have the yellow steel set and have put 15 3/4” sheets of plywood on them handled it great! On concrete of corse. I am going to look into the craftsman set looks like a great work surface set
15 sheets! That's a hefty load ... I think the sticker on the bottom reads that they hold 1500 lbs each
Hi Spencer, thanks for posting this really interesting. I've got the tough built ones (c650 I think) and they are fantastic. Expensive but worth it. One quick note about the black catches on the Craftsman silver ones, it looks like the clips are to fix them together in their closed position for transport. Thanks for the videos!
You're absolutely right: someone else commented that the clips bind them together, and that's how they work. Mystery solved!
I have the kobolt ones on my wish list. I unfolded them in the store and they are super heavy duty!
Most excellent. That feel of stiffness and solidness is definitely what you're looking for
The yellow steel ones are super sturdy but a pain the adjust height and are heavy AF
Yep you said it. My yellow ones are still kicking, just stiff
I have those yellow ones that you think are OK but I think are just garbage. They have the same problem as the first cheap ones you showed, the tab gets bent, they aren't stable, sink into the dirt and I would say don't waste your money on those with so many better choices out there.
Understood. They frustrate me too but I still use them
I use a pair of Dewalt DWX725 workstands, lightweight if a bit pricey....an advantage is the available clamp on brackets ( like on your miter saw), I can mount a tool such as a 12”disc sander or belt sander to the stand.
Those sound great. Dewalt stuff has never let me down
Thorough review. Thanks!
Thanks for checking it out!
Thanks for that 🇬🇧
I hope you find some good sawhorses!
Thanks. Saved me from buying those orange flimsy ones
Glad I could help!
The black clasps on the craftsman’s sawhorses allow you to attach both of them together to carry them with one hand. Flip one on its back closed and set the other closed one on top and the clasps will lock them together. I have them and I drilled holes through and attached 2x8s on the top rung. Hope this helps
Yes! I knew someone out there would know. Just tested it out and it works perfectly. I'm thinking I'll try attaching a 1" strip of plywood first, then move onto a 2x2 if that's too small. Cool to hear your ideas and mods, man.
Beat me to it...lol
You need to try the Jawhorse by Rockwell. 10 yr warranty. It is are unlike the rest of those. Not cheap but also won't let you down. Heavy but with built in wide wheel for moving around. It is more of a clamping solution than anything else.
Ya know, I think you told me about it before and I still haven't taken your advice, but I did try out a copy of it at ... ehem! ... Harbor Freight. After I sell a few of these folders off I should buy one. Sounds awesome. I don't mind paying for a good tool that will last and last :)
@@metaspencer hunh, didn't know it had been copied. I'll have to check that out. What'd you think of yours? So many things let me down but my Jawhorse rocks.
You should do a video on when is the best time to get good prices on tools & where. I was going to buy a 12v Dewalt drill/driver set last year for like 79-89 and now it's like 150 and I sooOooo wish I bought it back then. But prices should not double in a year. Maybe 10-20 percent increase. I just realized my aldi's li-ion 12v drill, a $30 cheapie, went out. The front bearing has more play in it than all of the major leagues. ( I was abusing it by having it drive a plumbers snake. Guess I learned the hard way that was too much for it. Lasted like 3 years. )
I see the driver on sale for $99 at fleetandfarm.com, milwaukee brand. But its also the 20v one and I'd kind of like to stick with the smaller, lighter 12v models.
@@johnpossum556 I went online this past week to look for a new, smaller chainsaw and found wildly different prices around the internet ... then finally found the saw I was looking for cheaper here in town. So yeah, those price fluctuations are really annoying. A video on the topic is a great idea ... :)
I'm looking at the Bora XT sawhorses
They look pretty solid
I am going to buy toughbuild one, which is the same as the first one, great video
Yeah, those are pretty nice ... I think you'll like it
Great video. You should email tough built and see if they will send you out a set. I knew if you gave them a honest good review the might get themselves a few more sales. I'm definitely leaning towards the green ones after your review
Good idea on the ToughBuilt inquiry ... you'll like what you get! :)
Interesting - and credible! Thanks.
Thanks for checking it out!
Great video. You helped me decide. Thanks!
Good to hear! Thanks for checking it out
I made mine. Haven’t used it yet
Excellent. I bet it's great
The clasp on the craftsman sawhorses is to connect the 2 sawhorses together
And it works! thanks for the tip :) Those are some nice, light horses
Nice video
Thanks buddy
Thanks useful info cheers from UK
Thanks!
Did you consider the Kreg Track Horses?
I've had some bad experiences with a Kreg folding work table, so haven't tried those horses. I'm guessing those horses are pretty solid and I see very few one-star reviews on Amazon.
Those black clasps are to lock two of them together.
got it! it took me waaaaaay to long to figure that out. I still like those little light weight horses. thanks
I have a set of master force saw horses and the adjusting legs suck mine are all jammed up I’ve tryed lubricating them and that didn’t seem to help other than that I have liked them up until that point
Oh man that's a bummer ... maybe they got slightly bent or something ... they do seem a bit flimsy to me
Good video 👨🔧
thanks!
This was 👍
Thanks for checking it out
C700s.
yeah Toughbilt makes some pretty good stuff
Subscribed because you are awesome dude
Most excellent! Great to hear and big thanks
The Eastwood can be adjusted for use on stairs.
I've never used it that way but that makes perfect sense! Great tip man
I bought 2 sets of saw hourses at a auction 1 set is made of wood non folding the other is 💯% plastic some whorpage I don't remember the brand i only paid 2$ for both sets they ended up at my sister's house my brother n law used the snot out of them & that's pushing 20yrs & big party's & a sheet of plywood great table lots of food regardless they been holding together they have seen better days we do got some folding ones at work there heavy and will do some damage to your fingers if not careful (like loose a finger) I think they would hold a small car
this is my 2$ worth of options lol what's your thoughts on my saw hourses
You got a SCREAMIN' DEAL on those sawhorses! Plus, sounds like they came in handy more than once. :) Good to hear your story, man
hey metaspencer nice video i saw you use a skilsaw i just picked one up for 79 bucks elecrtic skilsaw. i wonder if iv should of bought the one for 100 bucks there 7 1/4 do you think the one of 79 bucks is just as good let me know. thanks for your video. im picking some saw horses soon.
Well, you're asking a guy who used a $5 used skillsaw for the first 10 years of my woodworking career, so I say go with the cheap one and see if you outgrow it! In fact, I've had a few expensive skilsaws and they weren't that much better than the cheap ones. Good luck with it!
How do you extend the Craftsman sawhorse?
Extend? To open it up just push the little spring-loaded buttons
Great job god bless
Thanks for checking it out!
thoses tabs is to clamp 2 saw horses toghether.
Thanks! Yes, you're right and they clip together nicely.
How much longer to school bus stuff?
Well, now that the weather is warming up I'll have to plan another run at the paint job! Thanks for the reminder
Hay man how u been um have question is it true if u someone eat to much will day die because my girlfriend got mad at me and she yelled at me because she doesn't want me to eat to much what do I do about eating habit
Hey man! Always good to hear from you. It's good to eat smaller meals for sure, and you want to keep a healthy weight. I hope you get it under control, man! You can do it!
