Looking to build folding sawhorses
" wrote in message ... 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 Shaun Van Poecke" wrote in message ... How high off the ground did you want them? How long is your mast? How much does it weigh? Shaun The distance from the ground should be min of 36 inches to clear the radar radome antenna. The clearance from the water line 50 feet. The exact lenght of the mast will have to be checked. The mast is deck mounted so I estimate 50 feet less 5 feet = 45 feet long. As for the weight I have to find out. I estimate the weight to be less than 1000 pounds. I will check with the manufacturer. |
