ABSTRACT:
A sawhorse kit is disclosed having a top piece, leg members, brace members and fastener members. Channels, adapted to receive and seat a top portion of the leg members are formed in the top piece a sufficient distance from its ends to provide a work surface on the top piece longitudinally outward from the channels. When received and seated in the channels, the leg members extend downwardly and outwardly from a plane including the longitudinal axis of the top piece, and downwardly and outwardy from a plane transverse to the longitudinal axis of the top piece and bisecting the top piece. Passages, adapted to receive and securely retain the fastener members, are provided in the top piece, leg members and brace members to facilitate assembly of the sawhorse kit.
The sawhorse kit is arranged for packaging by orienting the kit components in a five layer, stacked relationship having a generally right angled, hexahedronal peripheral configuration with two of the layers having a leg member and a brace member arranged in end to end relationship, two of the layers containing leg members, and one layer containing the top piece. The stacked kit components are then contained in a packaging structure having a length about the same as, or slightly longer than, the longitudinal length of the top piece, a width about the same as, or slightly wider than the height of a brace member, and a height about the same height as, or slightly higher than, the stack height of the kit components.
