1. sawhorse

   A sawhorse is a beam with four legs, typically arranged in two pairs of inverted "V"s, used to support a piece of wood or other material for sawing or other similar types of work. They are usually made of wood, metal, or plastic and provide a stable base for manual work. Sawhorses are often used in pairs, one at each end of the piece being worked on. They are commonly found in construction sites and carpentry workshops.

1. Sawhorse

   A saw-horse is a beam with four legs used to support a board or plank for sawing. A pair of sawhorses can support a plank, forming a scaffold. In certain circles, it is also known as a mule and a short sawhorse is known as a pony. The sawhorse may be designed to fold for storage. A sawhorse with a wide top is particularly useful to support a board for sawing or as a field workbench, and is more useful as a single, but also more difficult to store. A sawhorse can also be used as the base for a portable work table by placing a sheet of 3/4" plywood or even a door on top of two sawhorses. If the sawhorses are strong enough, the portable table can be used as a platform for tools like a table saw, although with caution if the top is not secured to the sawhorses.
