Yesterday saw me in the woods making a saw horse. Whilst not a particularly portable piece of equipment, in a semi-permanent or permanent camp setting they’re really useful for processing fire wood and provide a degree of safety by reducing the risk of cuts to the supporting hand.
In this video I show you how to make a saw horse using 5 x 2.4 meter lenghts of 75mm x 50mm pre-treated spruce, 3 x 8mm coach bolts and some screws.
Whilst we don’t actually teach making a saw horse, we put them to good use on many of our courses, including our 2 Day Bushcraft Course, 5 Day Bushcraft Course and IOL Bushcraft Competency course.
You can see plenty of photos from these courses, as well as all of our others, on our Facebook page.
