Abstract
Abstract A sawhorse having a crossbar and support legs at each end of the crossbar is provided with a workpiece support member supported on the sawhorse at a position laterally offset from the crossbar and at least as high as the crossbar. A second workpiece support member may be arranged on the opposite side of the crossbar and third and fourth workpiece support members may be provided in longitudinally spaced relation from the first and second workpiece support members respectively. The workpiece support members may have flat top surfaces disposed in a common plane situated higher than the crossbar so that a workpiece supported thereon may be cut along a line directed between the workpiece support members and either parallel to or perpendicular to the sawhorse crossbar with both cut portions of the workpiece supported on the workpiece support members.
