Coat Rack and Sawhorse...

Post by tom_k/mo »

Odd combination? Just added a set of plans for each on my web page below. The sawhorse design is rather unique, made of 3/4" plywood, and knocks down for easy storage, assembles in seconds...

The coat rack is one I have in my hallway, and have made copies for friends. Looks nice and easy to make.

Thanks, I downloaded your plans for the step stool. I really needed something like that in the garage

tom_k/mo I dont know if you just want to have your plans on your website but If you are interested I have a sketchup model of my saw horses that are build to last a nuclear blast. My Dad build his Kit Car on them infact. I dont know how to put it to pdf. format or do the 3d preview. But if you interested I will send you the model. Here is them holding a few SS accessories Image

Regnar, interesting design on the sawhorses. I like the option of the groove to run 2x4's between the 2 sawhorses. I'd be glad to add plans for your set of horses to the website if you want to send me the SketchUp model. They look very stable.

tom_k/mo, For some reason or another it wouldnt allow me to attach the file. But I did upload it to the 3d warehouse. Here is the link http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/ ... 6bfe061cea

They are very stable. The 2x4's going across make it really nice. I can put a full sheet of ply down and rip it to size and when the pieces get to small I just move the horses in and still have great support.

You can also run the 2x4 Vertically in between them and add a top brace. I used this to hang my doors so that I could paint them with a sprayer outside.

Tom the plans turned out great. I hope all you guys can get as much great use out of them as I have over the years. When I get home next Tuesday I will take actual pictures for you guys and show you how I store them.
