So that's the problem with my transmission! The turbo encabulator wasn't properly secured to the gurdle strab. How did I miss that!?!?!

I'll bet it's really a problem with the muffler bearings....

I've got the 2x4 model. I used it on one job. I've gone back to sawhorses and plywood. Much sturdier.

These things beat the hell out of the centipede

Been meaning to get some sawhorses and your post got me looking around. Picked up a couple of the C650 sawhorses yesterday from Lowes.

Am I the only one who still uses floor sweep compound to keep the shop floor clean?

My wife uses a floor sweeping compound often in two of the shops. She also uses a live enzyme for removing odors and stains made by Biokleen called BAC-OUT. Originally she just used on stubborn stains and odors or when a dog or cat has an accident in the house. Mostly she uses it on wood floors or concrete floors where odors or stains can penetrate.

Okay, just finished getting the 5th of 6 closets ready for me to install tomorrow. Each closet had the wood closet poles suspended from the particle board shelf and 30 years of paint and abuse. So in each closet I have demo’d the old stuff, patched the drywall and skim coated the where the old shelves were then texture coated (a heavy knockdown) and painted two coats. Not exactly carpentry but happy to get nice closets. Done that in each closet over the last month. After tomorrow install I’ll only have the entryway closet left. Can’t wait. Tired of drywall and paint.

A few decades ago I was thumbing through a copy of fine woodworking and found a simple saw horse plan.

I chose to bevel the top instead of notching the legs in.
They lasted for years, through all my abuse.
Any good carpenter should be able to whip up a pair in short time.

Is fine woodworking still printed?

Painter's horses. Saw horses look somewhat different.

I knew a contractor who used that as his interview technique for applicants for carpentry jobs.

Gave them the wood and said "Make me a sawhorse".

It's a sawhorse. Quit being such a douche.

Sawhorses for Leprecians.

More on the rough end of the scale. Probably want to add a few more fasteners...
