Abstract: The design is for a sawhorse with a collapsible support platform to support material that is being cut-off or worked on. The support platform keeps the material that is being cut from falling and/or splintering at the end of the cut and reduces or eliminates the need for an addition person to support the portion of the material being cut-off or for the person doing the cutting to attempt to hold the material being cut-off with one hand while cutting with the other and creating an unsafe condition. The sawhorse with support platform does not necessarily eliminate the need for a second sawhorse to support the opposite end of the material being cut or worked on. The sawhorse can be provided with the platform on both sides to provide additional cutting or material support surface which may then eliminate the need for a second sawhorse. Additionally the cutting support platform can be provided as a separate accessory that can be mounted to various manufactures' available sawhorses.

Abstract: A knock-down sawhorse has a support beam supported above a surface by at least two pairs of legs, each pair of legs supporting opposing ends of the beam. The beam has at least four connectors, at least a first pair of connectors arranged on opposing lateral side walls at one end and at least a second pair of connectors arranged on opposing lateral side walls at the other opposing end. Each connector has a tab downwardly depending from a top wall of the beam for engaging an axially-extending recess in an upper end of each leg. Each pair of legs is interconnected by an adjuster for adjusting a lateral spacing therebetween. Manipulation of the lateral spacing between each pair of legs allows a working height of the sawhorse to be manipulated, allowing the sawhorse to be leveled.

Abstract: A sawhorse having a pair of legs supporting a beam and a pair of corresponding cantilevered support member with each hingedly attached across the beam members whereby the legs can be divergently extended with a spanner fastened to opposing legs restricting the angular separation. The user selectively moves one or both of the fold outs as needed creating a desired work surface on a horizontal plane.

Abstract: The multipurpose sawhorse end frame has a top section defining center and lateral slots for receiving 2?×4? beams and central slots for 2?×12? planks, a central section with center slots for receiving 2?×4? beams and lateral support bars for supporting 2?×12? planks, and a bottom section having feet for supporting the frame. A plurality of diagonal braces maintain rigidity of the end frame and provide the end frame with structural strength. Two or more end frames may be configured as a sawhorse, a scaffold, a workbench, a table, or other temporary construction accessory using scrap lumber and without fasteners. The multipurpose sawhorse end frame may be made from lightweight aluminum or other suitable material.

Abstract: A support apparatus having a first support element with at least one slot defined therein and a second support element with at least one slot defined therein; and one or more connective structures, wherein the first and second support elements are adapted to be secured together by the one or more connective structures by the disposition of the one or more connective structures within the respective slots of the first and second support elements.

Abstract: A work piece support assembly can be assembled in either an operating configuration or in a flattened coplanar configuration for storage. The support assembly includes a pair of leg assemblies, one each for the proximal and distal end portions of an elongated rail support member. Each end of the rail support member has a portion having two leg socket assemblies. Each socket assembly has a first and second socket with respective first and second centerlines that may be non parallel and intersect at a predetermined point. Each leg assembly has a stem assembly comprised of a first and second stem portion, which are both pivotally coupled to the rail support member through the first and second sockets of each socket assembly. In its operational configuration, the first and second leg of each leg assembly is transverse to the rail support member. In the flattened storage configuration, the leg assemblies counter rotate resulting in each leg assembly being coplanar to the rail support member.

Abstract: A knock down sawhorse includes a rail, a pair of legs and a spreader having notches and slots for enabling assembly and disassembly thereof along with holes disposed in each of the rails, legs and spreaders for enabling alignment of the holes with one another upon stacking of the rail, legs and spreaders thereby enabling a handle to maintain the stacked configuration for storage and transport.

Abstract: A portable picnic table/sawhorse and bench furniture set. The picnic table/sawhorse includes a tabletop having spaced cross member guides and guide rib on the underside of said tabletop. A pair of sawhorses have lengthwise grooves in their spines to receive the cross members and supporting the tabletop. The sawhorses have generally triangular end supports for each spine The spine has a main support forms an upper tongue and a tenon spaced below the upper tongue, each extending from respective ends of the spine joint main support member. Upper tongues and lower tenons are removably engaged with corresponding grooves and mortises in each table end support. The furniture set includes a pair of benches having similar joinery. Removable pins are provided for each joint in the sawhorses and benches.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for constructing sawhorses attached to a pickup truck tailgate uses brackets that fold up and down are attached to the top surface of the tailgate when the tailgate is open. The foldable portion of each bracket is raised and a 2×4 or appropriately dimensioned rail is inserted into the bracket. A portion of the rail extends beyond the back of the tailgate so boards and other construction paraphernalia may be placed on the rails.

Abstract: An apparatus used in the assembly and structure of tables, benches, sawhorses, and scaffolds. In particular, the invention discloses a U-beam top joint with lumber end gripper used with a U-beam splay bar, which are used in pairs or greater multiples to hold pieces of lumber in the required position to form a structure. The combination can be readily transported to a recreation or construction site and used to assemble a picnic table, bench, sawhorse with lumber fence, bench, scaffold or like structure with available lumber, cut to form the desired height for the structure. The U-beam top joint with lumber end gripper and the U-beam splay bar interact with the lumber legs and cross-beam such that an increase in load on the cross-beam causes a proportional increase in the rigidity and stability of the structure. The U-beam top joint and the U-beam splay bar each have side lumber brackets by which multiple top joints and splay bars can be linked to each other.

Abstract: A bracket is provided for a sawhorse or other multiple piece stand, which stand includes a plurality of elongate legs and an elongate beam supported substantially horizontally by the legs. The bracket includes a generally U-shaped channel for receiving the beam. The channel includes a base and pair of side walls attached unitarily to and extending upwardly from the base. There are a pair of leg accommodating receptacles fixedly joined to the channel and including a first receptacle that has a first recess for fixedly interengaging the base and a first one of the side walls of the channel and a second receptacle that has a second recess for fixedly interengaging the base and a second one of the side walls of the channel. The receptacles are juxtaposed along and extend divergently from the channel. Each receptacle is capable of receiving a respective leg, which legs are engaged with a substantially horizontal surface to support the beam above the substantially horizontal surface.

Abstract: A materials support including a pair of leg supports and a horizontal support, the leg supports including a tubular member adapted to snugly receive a portion of said horizontal support and a pair of laterally extending legs, the legs being integral with the tubular member.
