The Saw Horse is a timber frame sawhorse plan and cut sheet package from Shelter Institute, with full drawings for a sawhorse 32 in high, 30 in wide and 48 in long. It's made to go with our Timber Frame Sawhorse Online Course.

Every timber framer should cut a sawhorse first. It's a complete frame in miniature, with real mortises, real tenons and real layout, at a scale where a mistake costs a few board feet instead of a beam. Cut a pair and you'll use them on every project after. There are two packets, Full Dimension and Nominal, so the drawings match the stock you're cutting. You'll get PDF plans by email and 11 x 17 in plans by mail. The 8 white oak wedges the sawhorse needs are sold separately, and a 12 in combination square is handy for the layout.

We process every digital order by hand. Once yours is ready, you'll get an email from me (Blueberry). Open it, click the link, and the file is yours.

Since it's one of us doing it and not a machine, orders placed overnight, on weekends or on holidays will wait until we're back in the shop. We're usually pretty quick, and we appreciate your patience.
