Abstract

The folding sawhorse for use in creating a workbench. The folding sawhorse includes a pair of panels each having a lower end and an upper end, wherein the upper ends are pivotally secured to one another. The panels are preferably rectangular in configuration and able to stand upright, similar to a conventional sawhorse. The folding sawhorse further includes a shelf wherein a first end thereof is pivotally secured to the second panel and a second end thereof can rotate so as to allow the shelf to pivot between a horizontal and a vertical position. The folding sawhorse is movable between a folded and a working configuration. In the working configuration, the folding sawhorse forms an A-shape having the shelf horizontally disposed between the pair of panels. In the folded configuration, the panels are positioned flush against one another, whereby the shelf is disposed within an opening of the second panel.
