Whether I need support for cutting plywood or bases for an assembly table, I reach for my hinged frames instead of sawhorses. The hinged frames open into stable, double-armed platforms that can be used individually or together.
Each assembly consists of two identical frames and two identical gates made from 3/4-in. fir plywood using half-lap joinery. Four continuous hinges hold the parts together and facilitate opening and closing. Hook-and-eye screw latches lock the assembly in the open position.
