How To Build Sawhorses

How to Build Simple, Stackable Sawhorses with 2x4s under $30.00 This project outlines how to build durable, stackable sawhorses using only 2x4 lumber. Ideal for supporting materials or transforming into a temporary table, the design is budget-friendly ($30 if buying new wood) and simple enough to complete in under an hour. Materials & Tools: • Five 8-foot 2x4s [straight 2x4’s will make your task easier] • 3-inch deck screws • Saw, measuring tape, Square, level, pencil, drill/driver Cut List: • 14 - 30-inch 2x4s (for legs and the I-beam) Sawhorse Assembly Steps 1. Build I-Beams: Sandwich a 30-inch 2x4 between two 30-inch boards, centered with 1-inch overhangs, and secure with screws. 2. Attach Legs: Angle the 30-inch legs under the I-beam’s lip and screw each in place with four screws. Use a Square to keep the legs square to the I-beam. 3. Stack: The compact design allows for easy stacking when not in use. Sawhorse Assembly-Tip: Install 1 screw in each leg then flip the horse onto the floor or workbench and check for wobble. Using the square and by tweaking the legs, adjust legs so there is no wobble. Assuming a level workbench, using a level on the I-beam will keep you honest.
