I need to build a few steel saw horses for my shop. Maybe support 1t a pair and about 34-36” high. What have you built? I beam or c- channel top, leg size and thickness, mid cross brace? Will he used more for square/rectangular than round so I don’t need rollers for pipe.

I made these sawhorses that stack easily and are lightweight but strong. The top is a piece of 2x4 tubing that I split lengthwise. I bolted in a 2x4 on edge on them so I would have a sacrificial surface to cut into with a circular saw.
The jig was an absolute must and helped me to make 12 identical saw horses that all stack perfectly. Also I have the legs tilted outwards just a tad so they all taper a bit and that aides stacking as well.Comment

We made a bunch of these sawhorses at a place I worked at some years back. 1” square tubing and they held a retarded amount of weight on them. The legs were offset to where one would slide into another and so on for storage. They were lightweight and easy to move around. We would set very heavy pallets of steel or finished product etc etc on them. If it was too heavy we’d just toss another sawhorse up in between.Comment
