OREGON Steel Log Saw Horse, foldable and adjustable, 27 cm log capacity (584145)

Quick delivery and well packed. Putting it together was a little puzzling in parts but 30 minutes later it was all done. The diagrams were helpful, together with the guide numbers that were fixed to the various components, to identify which was which. That seems to be fairly new as it's not mentioned in earlier reviews. The unit also has tooth plates welded on the ends of all 6 struts which is not shown on the diagram (the instructions only show 3) and that threw me for a minute or so but it's all very logical when you think about it. In use, the saw horse is excellent. It's strong and stable and gives you confidence to use both hands on the saw if you want, with one foot on the cross-bar to give you the feeling of holding the whole frame down, although I don't think that's really necessary. Since I bought it a couple of days ago I've sawn up a large assorted batch of stored branches, some quite large, and the horse has coped with them all without any problems. I tend to saw off one end of the horse, so catching the cross-bar isn't a problem either, but if you're worried about it I've also found it's possible to saw most of the way though the middle of shorter logs, while they are one the whole horse, and then finish them off by moving the log onto the single last strut, and holding onto it to make the last cuts off at the end. This is made easier because the teeth are very good at holding the log firmly while you gently saw those final cuts. Having struggled to saw logs on a workbench this is a thousand time better and I wish I'd bought one a lot sooner. Given the quality, it was an excellent price too.

After reading the reviews on several metal sawhorses I took a punt on this one from Oregon and as it turned out I made the right choice, as it has exceeded my expectations. It arrived very quickly and the weighty box gave me a good feeling as you need weight and strength in a sawhorse. I unpacked it all (it was well protected by large amounts of protective wrap) checked everything was there and laid it all out on the living-room floor, where I then familiarised my self with all the component parts against the assembly instructions. To be honest once you have understood how it fits together (using the Amazon product pictures and assembly sheet) it is a 30 minute task and seriously if anyone has major issues with this then they should not be let loose with a chainsaw. The secret is to ensure the serrated edges are at the top and the three leg sets are put together with the serrations facing inwards and a locking bar at each end with the two short vertical bars in the middle going down to two lateral support bars, then the rest falls into place. Yes, there are no spanners supplied, but, it only requires a couple of 13m and 14m open and ring spanners to do the job and again if you do not have your own toolset at home you probably are not the right person to be running around with a chainsaw! Once it was assembled I rechecked the tightness of all the bolts and nuts and took it outside for a bit of Stihl 2 stroke chainsaw action. So, here are the facts after a solid heavy duty log cutting session: 1. It is a robust solid structure with a good coating of deep red paint which supported some of my heaviest 6 to 8 ft logs weighing up to 16 kgs. 2. The serrated edges really gripped the logs and stopped any turning, obviously each log was rammed down into place to ensure the edges were gripping it. 3. I adjusted the sawhorse width to ensure different sized logs were getting maximum grip and the end locking bars did their job with no slippage. 4. There was no problem with cutting down through the logs anywhere across the width of the horse as there are a few inches below each log prior to meeting the metal bars below with plenty of room to finish the cut, just so long as you know how to use a chainsaw and it is sharp, so you are not putting too much weight on it during the cut. After use the horse folds up nearly flat and goes nicely into the shed. So would I recommend it?.............hell yes this is a great bit of kit and it is well up to the task it is intended for and I am glad I put down most of the negative review comments to people that are not used to handling tools and basic DIY. None of these very few negative comments were borne out and I am blown away by this truly great addition to chainsaw (or bowsaw) log cutting, well done Oregon.

Quite complicated to put together but maybe that was just me. Fairly easy to use however I think the cross bar needs to be lower, it’s easy to catch it when cutting through the wood .

Excellent product, does what it supposed to. No bending down to chain saw logs . Holds quite thick and heavy loads as well . Really secure and much safer than trying to cut them off the floor. Very impressive. A bit fiddly to put up instructions not to good, but well worth the cost.

Great sturdy piece of kit. Best way to assemble it.Bolt uprights together then bolt 2 outer uprights to the cross pieces then put middle upright in.Do not fully tighten bolts until they all in position.

Sturdy. Good value. Survived being clipped by accident by the saw. It took about 30mins to assemble as I put bits on backwards at first. Assembly was fine all the bits were there and no wasted throw away spanners.

the product is very good; strong, sturdy, good grip on wood. As others have said the instructions are dreadful and one needs to use photos and videos on amazon to work out how to build it.

I think this is overall a terrific piece of kit it's well made it feels relatively sturdy and the features make it really great does its job. The teeth are on the right-hand portion hold locks in place and more often than not prevent them from spinning when the blade hits the log. Although I think a feature where a chain or strap can be wrapped over the log and then locked in place would be better. Unfortunately, the overall product itself feels way too light and when placing some logs on the item I found that it almost feels unstable. I would have preferred the instructions brought this to my attention and recommended that the product be weighted down in some way shape or form prior to use. Storage-wise varies to do the Arctic can be folded completely flat and therefore if you like leaning it up against a wall in a shed or garage it's going to take up a minimal amount of room and it's also light enough to be able to be hung from a wall if you wish. Longevity wise I can see this lasting plenty of winters, although I've caught it a few times with the blade of my chainsaw it's taken very small nicks and it still keeps going with no visible issues.

heel stevig robuust makkelijke montage een aanrader

Der Sägebock von Oregon war problemlos in 20 Minuten aufgebaut. Wirkt sehr wertig und stabil. Bin froh, nicht einen ganz billigen Bock gekauft zu haben.

No lo he probado pero es bastante resistente y de calidad

A good saw horse haven’t used as yet

Heel nuttig voor hout zagen: stabiel en stevig voor een lage prijs.
