A foldable sawhorse is disclosed having a main set of leg members with a beam across the upper edges thereof, and a shorter, supporting set of leg members pivotally secured to the main leg members. Strut members extend between the main and supporting legs on each side of the sawhorse, the struts being foldable as the sets of leg members are folded together, the legs and struts assuming a nesting relationship for presenting a thin, folded profile for storage and/or transport. The center support beam is vertically aligned with the midpoint of the open legs to evenly distribute the weight between the uneven length sets of leg members.

A foldable sawhorse having operative and storage positions and adapted to be positioned on a base, comprising main leg members with supporting leg members pivotally joined at pivot points to said main leg members near the upper ends thereof, said supporting leg members being shorter than said main leg members and forming an inverted V-shaped structure in combination with said main leg members when in said operative position and wherein the distance along said main leg members between said pivot points and the lower ends of said main leg members is less than the distance along said supporting leg members between said pivot points and the lower ends of said supporting leg members, foldable strut means extending between and pivotally secured to said main leg members and said supporting leg members at each side of said V-shaped structure for selectively maintaining said leg members in said operative position, said strut means having right and left bar means pivotally secured together near their opposed end portions opposite the connection to said leg members and wherein the points of connection of said strut means to said main leg members are disposed below the points of connection of said strut means to said supporting leg members for disposing said strut means at an angle relative to said base, a support member secured to and extending between the upper ends of said main leg members and in substantially vertical alignment with the midpoint between said leg members when in said operative position, and pad means secured to the lower ends of said leg members.
