Tis the spring season and we have had another inventor (not Dr. Qwas) bring us an incredible idea.  We have had it made, and the "gutter" and "siding" guys are eating these up.  It is an expandable workbench for the mere introductory price of only $64.99.  It is a very simple design, and the instructions are similar to Festool (Sorry Christian).  I will let the pictures speak for themselves.  In essence, if you have a 2x4's of any length, you can have a 16' bench.  As I mentioned, the gutter and siding guys love this "expandable workhorse".  We have had a half a bunk of flooring on it, and did not budge it.

THIS IS NOT TO BE USED FOR SCAFFOLDING!!!! 

Put a 4x8 Sheet of Chip Board or OSB and you have a monster work table.  Then, combine it with the Qwas Fence Rail, and you are cutting like a banshe

Every job site has 2x4's and the bench breaks down into a very very small footprint.  Check out the attachments below.

Do you have nay pictures of the table conversion.. Not really clear what this offers over a pair of saw horses.

I am sure there must be or you wouldn't be so excited about this.

Thanks.

Timmy, the workhorse looks pretty cool.  What if you offered some kind of rubber feet for us guys who work inside?

What makes the Workhorse unique is the angle of the cut outs in the struts.  They are angled so when you place the 2x4 through them, they lock down at a perfect angle parallel to the surface you are working on.  Another point, is that you can utilize any length of 2x4.  I.e.  If you have a 12 footer, you now have a 12 foot Work Horse.  There are some who will purchase two sets, and use the four struts intermittently to provice more stability and strength.  In essence, two sets of horses working as one. 

Once you are done, the supports pull off the 2x4's and create an extremely small footprint in the trailer, or hanging in the garage.

Great Idea Dan,  I have not considered that option.  I will say that some trimmers are using them to keep their longer moldings up off the ground.  They have placed Chair Glides under the feet to keep them from marking the floors.

What is the working height with 2x4's mounted on top?

36 1/8" Ron.  Again the coolest aspect is it totally knocks down to hang on a wall, fit in the bed of a truck, and all you need is 2x4's that you would pick up on a jobsite.  Other peeps that have these have drilled holes in them to place "S" hooks in them to hang tools as well.

I think one of the neatest things about this set up is that it was brought to me by a guy here in Lincoln.  He had spend a ton-o-cash on patents and insurance, and just didn't know how to bring it to market.  Kace is one of the nicest guys I have ever met.  He is a home builder, and has been using a system like this for years.  Funny how lives pass.

Chair glides would have the disadvantage of moving.  Feet made of some sticky type rubber would be better, IMO.
