I'm sure the seller would throw them in with the rest the $25K lot.

i found someting that looks similar at hf but we know they make some things that look are very tool like

one review mentions the work stands collapsing while he was out of the shop and he caught it on his security cam

The guys mistake was extending the chains. Now he was not using them as designed and he ended up putting stress on points that were not designed for it.

Harbor Freight should have mentioned that on a reply.

Basically those are EMT conduit, both the HF and the one in your picture. The one in your picture is stronger by total design, but not by much.

If you are serious about fold up and strong, height adjustable metal horses look at Home depot, they have three IIRC sizes. Up to 1500 or more pounds.

I have a couple of sets of plastic saw horses similar to these. What I like about them is the shelf underneath. It's a great place to hold tools and parts while working on whatever is on top.

Mine are not height adjustable. Perhaps that's a nice feature but I've never tried it.

Home Despot, Lowes, most full line hardware stores, just for starters. They will be "better" and more expensive than the ones shown. Lots of "how tos" on the web to make your own.

I have a dozen of these that I bought to refinish the doors on a previous house. They're undoubtedly better than what no-punctuation wants but they're still not great. They're the ones that crashed on Leon, aren't they?

I agree that the shelf below is quite useful.

I ended up with these.

I can put up to 4x4 runners, 8 foot long of 2 x 4's etc. They fold up completely, and the framework that I put on top for cutting 4x8 sheets of plywood hooks in solidly.

It also is height adjustable so I can gently lay the plywood off its rack on to the top for cutting up into manageable pieces.

the one in the picture is super simple and folds up flat

they may not be made anymore

too many features just means more things that can break

Not those particular ones, but Menard's generally carries one or two versions. I have some very good, heavy duty ones I bought there. Not very expensive and very handy. Folded closed they're about 36"x4"x2½" and have a carry handle that is nicely balanced.

Yes plastic legs pooped out under a load. I replaced with similar but with adjustable steel legs.
