584145 Folding Adjustable Steel Sawing Horse, Logs 27 cm Wide Maximum

Quick delivery and well packed. Putting it together was a little puzzling in parts but 30 minutes later it was all done. The diagrams were helpful, together with the guide numbers that were fixed to the various components, to identify which was which. That seems to be fairly new as it's not mentioned in earlier reviews. The unit also has tooth plates welded on the ends of all 6 struts which is not shown on the diagram (the instructions only show 3) and that threw me for a minute or so but it's all very logical when you think about it. In use, the saw horse is excellent. It's strong and stable and gives you confidence to use both hands on the saw if you want, with one foot on the cross-bar to give you the feeling of holding the whole frame down, although I don't think that's really necessary. Since I bought it a couple of days ago I've sawn up a large assorted batch of stored branches, some quite large, and the horse has coped with them all without any problems. I tend to saw off one end of the horse, so catching the cross-bar isn't a problem either, but if you're worried about it I've also found it's possible to saw most of the way though the middle of shorter logs, while they are one the whole horse, and then finish them off by moving the log onto the single last strut, and holding onto it to make the last cuts off at the end. This is made easier because the teeth are very good at holding the log firmly while you gently saw those final cuts. Having struggled to saw logs on a workbench this is a thousand time better and I wish I'd bought one a lot sooner. Given the quality, it was an excellent price too.

After reading the reviews on several metal sawhorses I took a punt on this one from Oregon and as it turned out I made the right choice, as it has exceeded my expectations. It arrived very quickly and the weighty box gave me a good feeling as you need weight and strength in a sawhorse. I unpacked it all (it was well protected by large amounts of protective wrap) checked everything was there and laid it all out on the living-room floor, where I then familiarised my self with all the component parts against the assembly instructions. To be honest once you have understood how it fits together (using the Amazon product pictures and assembly sheet) it is a 30 minute task and seriously if anyone has major issues with this then they should not be let loose with a chainsaw. The secret is to ensure the serrated edges are at the top and the three leg sets are put together with the serrations facing inwards and a locking bar at each end with the two short vertical bars in the middle going down to two lateral support bars, then the rest falls into place. Yes, there are no spanners supplied, but, it only requires a couple of 13m and 14m open and ring spanners to do the job and again if you do not have your own toolset at home you probably are not the right person to be running around with a chainsaw! Once it was assembled I rechecked the tightness of all the bolts and nuts and took it outside for a bit of Stihl 2 stroke chainsaw action. So, here are the facts after a solid heavy duty log cutting session: 1. It is a robust solid structure with a good coating of deep red paint which supported some of my heaviest 6 to 8 ft logs weighing up to 16 kgs. 2. The serrated edges really gripped the logs and stopped any turning, obviously each log was rammed down into place to ensure the edges were gripping it. 3. I adjusted the sawhorse width to ensure different sized logs were getting maximum grip and the end locking bars did their job with no slippage. 4. There was no problem with cutting down through the logs anywhere across the width of the horse as there are a few inches below each log prior to meeting the metal bars below with plenty of room to finish the cut, just so long as you know how to use a chainsaw and it is sharp, so you are not putting too much weight on it during the cut. After use the horse folds up nearly flat and goes nicely into the shed. So would I recommend it?.............hell yes this is a great bit of kit and it is well up to the task it is intended for and I am glad I put down most of the negative review comments to people that are not used to handling tools and basic DIY. None of these very few negative comments were borne out and I am blown away by this truly great addition to chainsaw (or bowsaw) log cutting, well done Oregon.

Quite complicated to put together but maybe that was just me. Fairly easy to use however I think the cross bar needs to be lower, it’s easy to catch it when cutting through the wood .

Good piece of kit, cut all my logs today. I Agree with other reviewers that the assembly instructions are not that clear, but with a bit of logic you can figure it out. If you struggle too much to assemble it, then I must attest that this may not be your raison d'être and suggest you should avoid playing with chainsaws, or for that matter any other sharp objects

Sturdy. Good value. Survived being clipped by accident by the saw. It took about 30mins to assemble as I put bits on backwards at first. Assembly was fine all the bits were there and no wasted throw away spanners.

Excellent product, does what it supposed to. No bending down to chain saw logs . Holds quite thick and heavy loads as well . Really secure and much safer than trying to cut them off the floor. Very impressive. A bit fiddly to put up instructions not to good, but well worth the cost.

Really nice saw horse replaced an old wooden one, super easy to move around and grips the wood well. Only four stars as its not the best on uneven ground so worth baring in mind. Have been using for over a year and still going well. Folds away nicely too

Great log saw horse, was easy to assemble, nice and sturdy and just the correct height to cut. Logs stay still when seated right. But I’m so disappointed to say this... the biggest let down of this is the bar directly underneath where you put the log to cut, if you cut a log in the middle for example with a chainsaw, you’ll cut through and hit the red bar directly underneath, which is a real pain. I’ve now got a log horse with marks and dents. This is a major design flaw to me, the middle bar it needs to be lower down, so when you saw either by hand or with a chainsaw it’ll hit it and blunt your chain and damage the bar. So would I recommend it, I would at the price if it’s on offer like me. But at the price be prepared to make some minor modifications, I moved the red middle bar down a few inches and this so much better. Definitely recommend that’s the only annoyance is that bar is so close underneath where your cutting.

heel stevig robuust makkelijke montage een aanrader

La notice de montage est la preuve qu'il ne faut pas prendre de drogue avant de rédiger un document. Heureusement avec un peu de logique ça s'assemble sans problème. Le chevalet est de bonne qualité et bien stable. Je conseille ce produit.

A good saw horse haven’t used as yet

Me sorprendió lo fuerte y bien construido que está este producto. Mi único comentario negativo es que las instrucciones de montaje no son las mejores. Cuando pasé de la primera etapa a la segunda, no se hizo evidente que habían dado vuelta los subconjuntos, de modo que el subconjunto dos ahora estaba en la parte superior del diagrama en lugar de en la parte inferior y había cambiado de lugar con el subconjunto uno. Una vez que me di cuenta de eso (los diagramas están etiquetados, pero son muy pequeños), todo estaba bien. Las instrucciones también solo muestran el requisito de 2 llaves de 10 mm. También se requieren una llave de 13 mm y una de 14 mm. ¡Un muy buen producto!

Heel nuttig voor hout zagen: stabiel en stevig voor een lage prijs.
