Me too Rusty.  I'm just going back to cushions on the floor.

Sweet bench!  A bit jealous, but not about to burn my furniture.  Yet.

Oh you guys are just too kind!
 The sawhorse (portable workbench / toolbox) was dreamed up in the 70's. I posted the drawing in FWW magazine to lock down the copyright.  Built in the very early 80's.
 I was refinishing a lot of furniture and I needed a way to get my junk into a clients home without making 9 trips. Light as I could make it, and still be strong enough.
   I have stripped and redone a lot of stuff right on their porches. No need to drag it across the county!
   So, its 30 years old now.
 
 I built another for heavy shop work. This one don't move. 3" thick top.
