Looking to build folding sawhorses



I need about four sawhorses to lay my sailboat mast (50') horizontally
while I am doing the preparation work in the spring.

Ideally, I should be able to transport these four sawhorses in the trunk
of my car from my house to the yacht club. Then bring them back home and
store them for the rest of the season.

So far, I have not been able to come up with a design that is foldable,
strong, and easy to use and store.

Any suggestion will be appreciated.



TIA

Denis


Local canadian tire store has been selling plastic sawhorses for a number
of years.
They have two versions...I have the better 'Made in Israel' version but
they sell a cheaper 'Jobmate' copy.

Thanks to everyone for the suggestions. I appreciate the information. I
have a fair amount of 4/4 and 8/4 eastern white pine in my garage. At this
time, it is not too comfortable to work in my garage workshop because of the
cold Canadian winter. This will give me time to look around for the plastic
folding sawhorses.
