Sawhorses are a common tool used in the carpentry industry, mostly in performing everyday tasks. A recurring complaint from carpenters working with current designs of sawhorses, however, is the lack of mobility, adjustability, and strength of their sawhorses which prevents them from handling heavy duty machinery or when cutting heavier materials, a frequent requirement in their work. There have been no products available as original equipment or as an aftermarket to address this problem.
An apparatus to assist with carpentry in supporting wood or other heavy objects that is easily maneuverable, adjustable and have a large weight bearing ability is not being met by any known device or system at present. There have been no products available as original equipment or as an aftermarket to address this problem either.
The main purpose of folding wide-top sawhorse is to provide users with a multi-functional folding wide-top novel sawhorse table.
Throughout the description, similar reference numbers may be used to identify similar elements depicted in multiple embodiments. Although specific embodiments of the invention have been described and illustrated, the invention is not to be limited to the specific forms or arrangements of parts so described and illustrated. The scope of the invention is to be defined by the claims appended hereto and their equivalents.
Reference will now be made to exemplary embodiments illustrated in the drawings and specific language will be used herein to describe the same. It will nevertheless be understood that no limitation of the scope of the disclosure is thereby intended. Alterations and further modifications of the inventive features illustrated herein and additional applications of the principles of the inventions as illustrated herein, which would occur to one skilled in the relevant art and having possession of this disclosure, are to be considered within the scope of the invention.
The present disclosed folding wide-top sawhorse, also known as “The Complete Sawhorse” offers a modem accessory that allows individuals to cut through any and all materials and includes built-in features that users would otherwise have to add or build, to allow for productive and efficient operation, at all times. The complete sawhorse introduces a novel heavy duty wooden table top with folding legs and extendable sliding arms to enable users to adjust and modify their sawhorses to cater to their exact preferences. The complete sawhorse ensures a fully operational sawhorse that eliminates the need for users to resort to other alternatives when sawing through diverse materials and elements which helps to improve time management.
The disclosure enables a user to work off two or three boards operating as a compound saw horse or as a two in one saw horse. Therefore, the disclosure can fold up and take less storage room and less operational space. The disclosure is a central structure for all other parts. The base is 20 by 48 inches with two attachment tubes 20 inches long on the underside. The attachment tubes are one and a half inches aluminum stock but can also be made out of plastic and heavy materials. Aluminum is preferred for carpenter work and heavy metals for a machine shop.
The central structure of the disclosure has four legs comprising one inch stock, the base one inch and all other components are one inch stock. Embodiments include attachment tubes larger from one and one half inch. Two extended bars at five feet long hold plywood and long boards with 35 inch legs of two each. There are two short extra tubings at 12 inches long for either side. Two feet long extensions provide more room. At the base of the sawhorse are two boards 8 by 48 for cutting support with 4 inches between the boards for cutting space if needed to be replaced with saw guides for straight cuts.
Although the operations of the method(s) herein are shown and described in a particular order, the order of the operations of each method may be altered so that certain operations may be performed in an inverse order or so that certain operations may be performed, at least in part, concurrently with other operations. In another embodiment, instructions or sub-operations of distinct operations may be implemented in an intermittent and/or alternating manner.
