    ToughBuilt owner here too. Love em and think theyre the best bang for the buck, especially at the Home Depot pricing when I bought mine.

    Guess ToughBuilt it is. I was attracted to the Bora Speedhorse because of the auto release of the legs but besides that the Toughbuilt has them beat - and at a lower price.

    Thanks for the responses.

    Just an FYI..Fine Homebuilding recently did a tool test of saw horses; might want to check it out: https://www.finehomebuilding.com/202...ding-sawhorses
    --I had my patience tested. I'm negative--

    I got my ToughBuilts on clearance from Lee Valley. It was a bit of an impulse purchase, but the price was almost too good to turn down. I had been considering new sawhorses that were a cut above the old wooden ones my dad made, but these just impress the heck out of me.

    You have a woodworking shop right? Seems logical to make something. Japanese style horses are very easy to make.

    Yes that's true for most of us, but I get my sawhorses out for projects and put them away when not in use.

    My storage space is limited and I can't make compact, strong and versatile sawhorses, out of wood as good as the Toughbuilt.

    I don't use saw horses in my shop much. I made a pair of folding "square folding table bases" years ago that I use for almost everything and store in minimal space. I'll post pictures after I get to the shop today.
